UIMA-AS Deployment Descriptor Editor installation fails

[Alexander Klenner <al...@scai.fraunhofer.de>]

Hi,

I tried to install UIMA-AS Deployment Descriptor Editor 2.3.1 via the Eclipse(latest version) "Help->Install New Software" interface from http://www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site/. Both tools and runtime are already installed(v.2.3.1). But installation fails with following error:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: UIMA-AS Deployment Descriptor Editor 2.3.1 (org.apache.uima.as.deployeditor.feature.group 2.3.1)
  Missing requirement: UIMA-AS Eclipse Plugin: uimaj-ep-runtime-deployeditor 2.3.1 (org.apache.uima.runtime.fragments.deployeditor 2.3.1) requires 'package org.apache.uima 2.3.0' but it could not be found
  Cannot satisfy dependency:
    From: UIMA-AS Deployment Descriptor Editor 2.3.1 (org.apache.uima.as.deployeditor.feature.group 2.3.1)
    To: org.apache.uima.runtime.fragments.deployeditor [2.3.1]


I found this error to be on the mailing list archiv: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2366

However the proposed workaround does not work for me. Does the directory of eclipse need to have permission to write for applying the -clean option?

Thanks for any help!

Cheers,

Alex
