Eclipse Luna - GWT Deploy module on application server is disabled - java

I've downloaded Eclipse Luna and install the following Google's plugins:
Google Plugin for Eclipse 4.4
Google Web Toolkit SDK 2.6.0 Bundle for Eclipse
GWT Designer Development Mode Support
GWT Designer Editor
GWT Designer GPE
I've checkout an svn project which was initially created using Eclipse Indigo.
When I try to deploy the project I see that the "GWT Deploy module on application server" button is disable. On Indigo I didn;t encounter this problem.
I would appreciate any help figuring out how to enable it.
Many Thanks!

In Eclipse 4.4 RCP builds, "The service Plugin converter could not be acquired."

We began getting the build errors below for our RCP applications after updating to the recent Eclipse 4.4 IDE Eclipse for RCP and RAP developers. These occurred on multiple Windows and Mac platforms, in a vanilla Eclipse IDE install with no additional plug-ins.
generateFeature:
[eclipse.generateFeature] The service Plugin converter could not be acquired.
[eclipse.generateFeature] The service Plugin converter could not be acquired.
[eclipse.generateFeature] The service Plugin converter could not be acquired.
...
Builds in an Eclipse 4.3.2 IDE continue to succeed. The only thing that differs is the IDE. (The build is launched with "Run in the same JRE as the workspace", making the current IDE relevant.)
Googling for "Plugin converter could not be acquired" resulted in two links, neither of which was particularly helpful.
How can these errors be eliminated?
This took me awhile to track down. This answer is for the benefit of others.
Eclipse 4.4 removed built-in support for Eclipse 2.0 plug-ins without an OSGi bundle manifest. This is intended to encourage migration to OSGi bundles.
Migrating to OSGi bundles is the best approach.
Alternatively, a compatibility plug-in can be added to the IDE. To install it:
Help>Install New Software
Select the site The Eclipse Project Updates - http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.4
Expand the category Eclipse Tests, Examples, and Extras.
Check the item Eclipse 2.0 Style Plugin Support
Continue through the rest of the wizard.

Eclipse Luna for web app

I started using eclipse recently, and I downloaded the Java EE version to create a webapp.
Now I have downloaded Version Luna (4.4), but i'm unable to create a web APP or create a Tomcat server with these versions...What am i doing wrong? Do I have to download some plugins?
Thank you in advance, and sorry if my question is too simplistic.
You should download this version" Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers"
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/lunar
Tomcat:
window->preferences->server->runtime environment
To create a web APP:
file->new->other->web->Dynamic Web project
you have to install a suitable plug in for developing web appplications in luna
either you can downloadan entirely new eclipse ide for java EE or you can install a WTP plugin in the existing luna version using the eclipse marketplace.

GWT 2.5 plugin for eclipse

we have an old project which runs on the GWT 2.5. Can anyone help me to install the GWT plugin for 2.5 version. I am using Eclipse Kepler and Indigo.
I have tried to install the plugin available in GWT portal. it will install 2.6. and it need a Java version of 7. I need a GWT plugin for version 2.5 which contains appengine-java-sdk-1.7.5 & gwt-2.5.0
Thanks,
Akshay
You don't need a different plugin, you just need a local GWT 2.5 SDK. You can configure your GWT SDK in the Eclipse preferences under "Google > Web Toolkit".
You can download old GWT SDKs on the GoogleCode project
Edit: You need to extract the manually downloaded GWT SDK before you can configure it in Eclipse.
Edit2: Old Appengine SDKs can be downloaded on Google Developers. The Appengine SDK can be configured in Eclipse preferences under "Google > App Engine".

GWT Eclipse plugin installation

I've installed Google's Eclipse plugin and GWT Designer in my Eclipse Juno. The installation was completed successfully but unfortunately no GWT Designer options appeared. I can't even deploy my GWT app to .war file.
How can I solve this problem?
Unfortunately I think you will have to wait until google releases GWT designer for eclipse 4.2 (Juno). Unless of course you have solved this already, if so then please share :)

Unable to install Google App Engine Plugin (Eclipse 3.6)

I've followed these instructions but I'm unable to install the GAE plugin on Eclipse 3.6 Helios.
Any ideas what could be wrong and how to fix it?
This is a clean install of Eclipse, the only added features are the Eclipse Web Developer Tools per instructions.
This is on Windows XP.
Don't make it more complex than needed. Use the PlugIn: GAE Plugin Instructions
I fixed it by installing Eclipse for Java EE Developers
The version for different types of eclipse is different for Google App Engine Plugin. Try to use different version of plugin as required by your eclipse . I Have used http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.4 for my Hellios Version eclipse and it is working file after installation . Do not forgot to researt your eclipse in clean mode after installation of plugin.
