Description Puneet Sapaliga CLA 2018-09-18 11:57:45 EDT
Created attachment 275868 [details]
Show IDE extensions and the Error window

Overview: 
A Window with an unexpected error message pops up when adding editors for creating feature files.
Error Message =>'Proposals dialog' has encountered a problem. An internal error has occurred.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1) Create a Maven Project (use 'maven-archetype-quickstart')
2) Create a folder in the project and name it feature
3) Right Click on the folder feature and add a file
4) Add the extension .feature to the file
5) Check if window with title 'Editors available on the Marketplace' pops up suggesting you to add a better editor
6) Select the option 'Show IDE extensions for this file type and let me install them'
7) Click on OK button

Expected Results:
1) Upon clicking OK a new window with title 'Eclipse Marketplace' should be displayed
2) The plugin 'Natural' should be available for installation

Actual Results: 
1) Upon clicking OK a window name 'Problem Occurred' pops up with an error message.
2) Error description: An internal error has occurred.
Illegal character in path at index 21: file:/C:/Users/Puneet Sapaliga/eclipse/java-photon/eclipse/configuration/

Additional Information: Alternatively I tried to add the required plugin by navigating to 'Help=>Eclipse Marketplace' to open the 'Eclipse Marketplace wizard' but nothing is displayed on the IDE UI.

Puneet, thank you for the report. Two questions:

1) Could you please double-check the version of the Marketplace Client this occured with? You put the version as 1.7.2 here, but that particular bug should be fixed since 1.7.1. You can check the version by going to "Help / About Eclipse / Installation Details" and then check the version of the "org.eclipse.epp.mpc" feature on the "Features" tab.

2) The error log should have an entry with a full stack trace for this error. Could you paste that here, please?

Just tested with eth 2018-09 release candidate and MPC 1.7.2. The problem doesn't seem to exist there, so I assume this was with an older MPC version and is a duplicate of bug 536385.

Please reopen if that's not the case.

You can update your MPC for Photon by installing the latest version from http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/photon using "Help / Install New Software". Unfortunately, this fix couldn't be rolled out through automatic updates for Photon - sorry for that.

Q1) Version is 1.7.0.v20180613-1234

Q2) I'm sorry I'll not be able to provide you the requested information as the project has been deleted from my local drive.

I've installed version 1.7.2.v20180829- 1931 from http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/photon.

I reproduced the steps that were mentioned in the bug details.
Result: Could successfully add the required plugin from Market Place.

Thanks for the resolution.
