Error: Apache Directory Studio not available
Submitted by Mike McAngus on Fri, 05/10/2013 - 10:18
Upgraded MyEclipse and tried to install the latest Apache Directory Studio LDAP Browser both via the Eclipse Marketplace and directly from directory.apache.org/studio/update/2.x/.
On the "Confirm Selected Features" pop-up, I receive an error pop-up "The following solutions are not available: Apache Directory Studio Proceed with the installation anyways?"
If I proceed with the installation I get a non-functional installation. In the "Window | Open Perspective | Other" menu, the installation is identified as "".
The update site for version 2

In reply to Error: Apache Directory Studio not available by Mike McAngus
The update site for version 2.0.0-M6 was bogus and contained a bad link to one of the dependencies.
It's now fixed with version 2.0.0-M7.

This is a known issue (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1195), the next release is unfortunately blocked by dependencies. I updated the list of supported Eclipse versions.
