I am trying to install eclipse WTP and am getting dependency issues.
In order to install the missing dependencies I am trying to load them from the Galileo update site: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo However, when I try to open this update site, no items show up. I tried messing around with the options (group items by category, show only latest versions...) but no luck. Any ideas why I can't see the software under this update site? I'm pretty sure I need to install some dependencies from here (emf..) in order to get WTP working.
Thanks
Maybe your firewall is blocking Eclipse, preventing Eclipse from getting the list of plugins from the update site.
Are you starting with Eclipse 3.5.x?
If WTP is your destination, it might just be easier to start with a preassembled Galileo package from http://eclipse.org/downloads/ . The "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers" contains the entirety of WTP and its prerequisites.

Is it just me or have they made this absolutely impossible?
On a fresh install of Eclipse Kepler (with m2e 1.4.1) I'm getting a bug with the m2e lifecycle plugin so have decided to do a basic update of the plugin to see if it fixes the issue.
I go to update the version via Help > Check For Updates and of course it says there are no updates, which isn't true.
How about updating manually then. Help > About Eclipse > Installation Details > Update on the plugin itself. Nope, still reports it as up to date, when it's not.
OK, how about Help > Install New Software then adding the release site : http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases/ then Select All > Next on 1.8.3 version. Eclipse tells me it can't perform the operation because 1.4.1 is already installed, well duh, I'm trying to update the version, but nope doesn't let me bump up the version, just some weird merge which doesn't fix the issue.
OK, now I'm annoyed, how hard should this be? I decide to nuke m2e from the eclipse installation. I go to Help > Installation Details select the plugin and uninstall. Then follow the steps above to add back 1.8.3 version from the update site except....nope. 1.4.1 is still installed and I'm not allowed to update it again according to Eclipse.
OK, this is getting bad now, I read a few articles online which seem to be in agreement that the only way to make m2e disappear is to delete all references to it from the plugin and features folders. I do this and attempt to reinstall 1.8.3 from the update site. Nope...1.4.1 is still installed according to Eclipse and yet again I can't update. Are you relally telling me I have to start hacking around in the configuration files to delete a plugin?
Has anyone actually been able to successfully do this on Kepler or should I just give up and start using IntelliJ? How such basic things are made so difficult is beyond me, Eclipse's plugin management is horrific.
My Java specifications: JRE: 1.8_u60, JDK: 1.8_u60
JAVA_HOME is set-up correctly.
I´ve downloaded and installed the latest Eclipse Mars Java SDK (Eclipse Mars.1 / 4.5.1) from the official Eclipse download page and used the installer.
I used the Eclipse update site from e(fx)clipse to install the JavaFX IDE.
As described in the site´s tutorial I should now be able to create FX projects with File > New > Other > JavaFX ...
But unfortunatelly I don´t have any option to create an FX project. There is no sub-section called JavaFX.
How do I set up JFX for Eclipse Mars properly (if my setup does not work at all)? here is one more similar Question asked.
Remove the installed plugin and try installing it through Marketplace.
Edit after the answer was accepted:
Just for clarification, it should also work in the way OP has tried it. Before one tries to troubleshoot why it's not working, it is very convenient to verify that the installation is not working from marketplace either.
Since JavaFX is now on default classpath, you do not need any extra plugin to create a JavaFX application. You can just create a simple Java Project in Eclispe and get started.
But, e(fx)clipse is recommended to install on Eclipse because of the extra features it adds to the IDE.
I just finished installing the e(fx)clipse plugin on my Eclipse Mars to check if your scenario can be reproduced, but unfortunately after installing the plugin & restarting Eclipse, I can create JavaFX projects.
You can either try restarting Eclipse or re-install the plugin again.
As mentioned in previous Question by tomsontom, you can check your status of e(fx)clips bundles. Or you can use All-In-One Download.
I have installed a new version of Eclipse Kepler and have installed the Google Plugin from "http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.3" using "Help/Install new software". However, the "g" button to allow the creation of a web application is not in the menu bar. Also when I go to "File>New" the option "Web Application Project" does not appear (I have checked under "Other". What else do I need to install please?
I have used this reference "http://www.gwtproject.org/usingeclipse.html#installing".
I resolved this by installing Eclipse-JEE. It recognised the Eclipse I had already installed, and spent a lot of time on configuring, and configured its self for me. I was very re-leaved as I expected to spend hours re-doing all the work. So if you have a similar issue do not hesitate to install Eclipse-JEE (do not remove the old Eclipse first).

You need the GWT SDK as well, but that is usually installed with the plugin. Unless you deselected SDK during the installation. What do you see when you go to Window>Preference>Google>Web Toolkit? Any entries there? If not you can use the Add... button to install SDKs.

You need to install the Plugin Development Environment. You don't actually nee the EE Developer version for this, you can install just this feature.
I'm looking to install the wro4j plugin for eclipse. Can someone show me how to to install this or point me to a page that can show me how to install it.
The specific version of eclipse is
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Indigo Service Release 1
Build id: 20110916-0149
This plugin created / supported by JBoss and is located here.
https://github.com/jbosstools/m2e-wro4j
I'm just unfamiliar w/the installation process. I typically use the Help/Install New Software in eclipse however this doesn't look like an option for this plugin.
Thanks for your help...
In the Install new software window, you'll need to add the wro4j update site in the Work with field. According to the page you linked to above, the wro4j release site is http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/m2e-wro4j/
After you add that update site, you should be able to see the wro4j features/plugins that are available. Note that depending on how the update site is structured, you might have to un-check the option Group items by category.
