[news.eclipse.technology.equinox] Re: Update Button Disabled

["Chris Cool" <cjcool@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I figured out the issue. I had previously exported my product and was using 
the config.ini generated by the Product Export Wizard. In this file, the 
eclipse.p2.data.area is set to platform:/base/p2. When I start my product, a 
profile is being generated at my root folder (C:\ drive) instead of using 
the profile under the p2 directory. If I change the value of 
eclipse.p2.data.area to @config.dir/../p2, the problem goes away and the 
update button is enabled.
