Branko,
I used the standalone updater to create a callisto mirror.
I then deployed this mirror internally here:
The problem is that the mirror is not complete: it is
missing lots of plugins. Have you any idea why?

Hi,
i see there was a try to access http://afsweb.ms.com/ms/user/d/daffinm/san/home/workshop/eclipseide/mirror-callisto/3.2.0/callisto/plugins/org.eclipse.cdt.core_3.1.0.200606261600.jar
what is:
http://afsweb.ms.com/ms/user/d/daffinm/san/home/workshop/eclipseide/mirror-callisto/3.2.0/callisto
it looks like some local site.

Using standalone updater to mirror Callisto -
missing plugins |
|
Hi All,
I do not seem to be able to create a
faithful mirror of callisto using the standalone updater: I am missing some
plugins. I ran the following:
java org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
-application org.eclipse.update.core.standaloneUpdate
-command mirror
-from http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/releases
-to
C:\tmp\eclipseide\mirrors\callisto
-mirrorURL http://localhost/eclipseide/mirrors/callisto
-ignoreMissingPlugins
true
This threw no errors and seemed to result in a viable Callisto mirror.
I put this on a test server, added the site to the update manager's list,
visited the site and attempted to install the C/C++ Dev tools from it. I got
the following error:
---
org.eclipse.update.core^1245e75

I checked the Callisto site and the
plugin jar is there:
http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/releases/plugins/org.eclipse.cdt.core_3.1.0.200606261600.jar
Can
someone please tell me what I have to do in order to get the standalone
updater to create a faithful Callisto mirror?
Many
thanks,
Miles

In particular, this short
description:
- <url> - optional URL specifying site(s) contain
feature updates, or new features
- <update> - URL to go to for updates to this
feature
- <discovery> - URL to go to for new features.
In general, a provider can use this element to reference its own site(s),
or site(s) of partners that offer complementary features. Eclipse uses
this element simply as a way to distribute new site URLs to the clients
