Bill Middleton commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-125:
-------------------------------------------------

The problem continues in Eclipse version 3.3.0 (Europa) when doing a clean install of the IDE for Java EE Developers bundle when attempting to add the Geronimo server adapter.

I am adding this comment because:

1) I see this issue as a *severe* impediment to adoption of Geronimo (and its variants like IBM Websphere Application Server Comunity Edition) in the developer community.  This problem alone virtually neutralizes the project's guiding principle that Geronimo "Integrates with the best open source tooling available like Eclipse".

2) Search engines need to pick up on new keywords in 3.3 that are different from those originally reported in 3.2

So, to re-state the issue in 3.3 terms:

1. Clean install of Eclipse 3.3 Java EE bundle from the Europa release as available here:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/moreinfo/jee.php

2.. Attempt to add a Geronimo server using the "Define a New Server" dialog, then selecting "Download additional server adapters", then selecting "org.apache.geronimo.feature". (This choice should display a more meaningful description BTW)

The download and install runs, but after restarting, there are no new options available in the "Apache" folder in the dialog.

Under the "Product Configuration", the red 'x' shows on the "org.apache.geronimo.feature (v1.2.0)" plug-in and the status under properties shows the long list of messages originally reported starting with:

"org.apache.geronimo.deployment.model" version "1.1.0" referenced by this feature is missing."

The work-around (as posted earlier) is to simply download the most recent version of the plug-in from the site below, then extracting it directly to the Eclipse install directory:
http://people.apache.org/dist/geronimo/eclipse/unstable/

A "v1.1" and "v2.0" Geronimo entry will be available under the Apache folder in the new server dialog.  However, the "org.apache.geronimo.feature" option still remains in the "download additional server adapters" dialog.
