Build Identifier: 20100204-0846 When I try "Check for Updates", I get lots of URLs which fail (all starting with "file:/". Where do they come from? The operation then fails with: Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.

When I open "EPP Packages Repository - http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/helios", I get "Java EE IDE Feature" but the version is 1.3.0.20100315-0831. How do I upgrade Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download M5 (eclipse-jee-helios-M5-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz, MD5 b534c019ee5d66b4b07be6c74f748d38) 2. Add "Eclipse Platform SDK" 2. Run "Check for Updates"
You are experiencing this problem because what you have installed is JEE M5 (and probably the Eclipse Platform SDK M5) and at this point only the Platform SDK M7 is available. Therefore p2 is looking for an update it tries to install Platform M7 on top of JEE M5 and it does not work. You should be available to update once the JEE package M7 (and its update site) will be made available later this week. Marking this for 3.6 just to sure to verify.
Your explanation makes sense. Here are two suggestions to make the error message easier to understand: 1. The message doesn't say where the dependency "Equinox Launcher 1.0.300.v20090720" comes from, so I can't see which plugin blocks the update. 2. Sometimes, the name of a plugin is used ("Equinox Launcher 1.1.0.v20100419") and sometimes the plugin ID ("org.eclipse.equinox.launcher [1.1.0.v20100307]") Either supply always both or only the name (which should be unique, right?)
> 1. The message doesn't say where the dependency "Equinox Launcher > 1.0.300.v20090720" comes from, so I can't see which plugin blocks the update. This is definitely something that we should be able to improve. > 2.

The user readable name is shown for the IUs (along their id) and for the requirements we show the id because there is no user readable string there. We used to only show the id everywhere but users could not relate from the ID to the element they had selected in the UI. I've renamed this bug to focus on making sure we show all the paths from all roots to the singletons.
(In reply to comment #3) > > 1. The message doesn't say where the dependency "Equinox Launcher > > 1.0.300.v20090720" comes from, so I can't see which plugin blocks the update. > This is definitely something that we should be able to improve. all the information is available in the trace. The problem is that sometimes you have to look for Equinox Launcher and deeper to look for org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.

I'll close that as a dupe of 261928 given that this is where we are working on improvements of error messages. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 261928 ***
