Description ludo CLA 2010-05-14 10:44:52 EDT
Build Identifier: 3.6m7

The GlassFish Update Center is pre-registered in Eclipse so that the "Add New Server..." action can discover the UC site that has the GlassFish plugin.

This Update Center is:
https://ajax.dev.java.net

For Eclipse 3.6 Helios, I am asking we remove this site declaration since the GlassFish Plugin will now be hosted in the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse (OEPE),due to the recent acquisition of Sun by Oracle.

We can keep this update center for Eclipse 3.5 product, but for Eclipse 3.6 and forward, the OEPE update center will contain the correct plugin for auto discovery of the GlassFish Java EE 6 plugin.


I understand this request is quite late in the release process, but I hope the change will be made (1 line to remove in an xml file containing all the UCS for server adaptors...

Many thanks.

Reproducible: Always

marking as major.
The update site is really:
https://ajax.dev.java.net/eclipse

I forget the last element of the URL in the previous request.
Comment 2 Angel Vera CLA 2010-05-14 11:15:36 EDT
Ludo, 

Just to ensure that we understand correctly each other, you want me to remove it and not replace it with anything else. Correct?
Comment 3 ludo CLA 2010-05-14 11:23:32 EDT
Correct,
I assume there is already an existing entry for the Oracle OEPE UC, right? 
If not, then Konstantin would need to be involved.
The Oracle OEPE UC that will host the GlassFish Plugin for Helios and forward.
Comment 4 Konstantin Komissarchik CLA 2010-05-14 11:59:37 EDT
Hi Angel,

We are replacing separate GlassFish and WLS adapter discovery sites with a joint one for Helios. Both existing GF and WLS URLs should be removed. The new URL to use is this one:

http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/helios/wtp

To remove:

https://ajax.dev.java.net/eclipse
http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/helios/wls-adapter

Thanks,

- Konstantin

* Explain why you believe this is a stop-ship defect. Or, if it is a "hotbug" (requested by an adopter) please document it as such. 
The adopters has requested to update the site for his server adapter. Without this fix the additional server adapters will not be downloadable

* Is there a work-around? If so, why do you believe the work-around is insufficient?
no reasonable workaround.

* How has the fix been tested? Is there a test case attached to the bugzilla record? Has a JUnit Test been added? 
No JUnit, the adopter is responsible for the testing and ensuring that the URL works.

* Give a brief technical overview. Who has reviewed this fix? 
The fix is to update the URL in file in the discovery plugin.

* What is the risk associated with this fix? 
minimal

Comment 9 Guillaume Pothier CLA 2010-06-14 01:10:57 EDT
I just installed Helios RC4 and Glassfish does not appear in the "download server adapters" dialog.
It seems the URL (http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/helios/wtp) is not valid anymore, here is the response Eclipse gets from the server:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>302 Found</TITLE>
</HEAD><BODY>
<H1>Found</H1>
The document has moved <A HREF="http://www.oracle.com/errors/404.html">here</A>.<P>

Comment 10 ludo CLA 2010-06-14 08:52:38 EDT
the url is not valid *yet* but will be soon.
Konstantin can comment on the date where it will be available...hoping around the release date of Helios itself...

Meanwhile, if you want to access a RC build of the Glassfish plugin. please use this helios update enter:
http://download.java.net/glassfish/eclipse/helios
Comment 11 Guillaume Pothier CLA 2010-06-14 10:33:14 EDT
Thanks, but when I put this URL in the "Install new software" dialog, all I get in the list of installable features is "There are no categorized items" (but the proper name of the update site, "GlassFish Eclipse Update Site for the Helios release (Eclipse 3.6)", is displayed, so the update site was contacted successfully). 
Am I doing something wrong?
Comment 12 Konstantin Komissarchik CLA 2010-06-14 11:46:41 EDT
The official Oracle server adapter discovery URL will be live by end of July with the rollout of OEPE Helios support. In the meantime, you can use the URL that Ludo provided that points to developer builds. If you are not seeing any features listed when you connect to this repository, find the checkbox that talks about only showing "categorized" features and uncheck it.
Comment 13 ludo CLA 2010-06-14 11:53:32 EDT
yes, uncheck the box called "Group items by category"
Comment 14 Guillaume Pothier CLA 2010-06-14 11:55:13 EDT
Oh, thanks, the checkbox did the trick. The text of the checkbox is "Group items by category", which doesn't sound like nothing will be shown if there are no categories, but there is already bug #281764 for that.
