"Download and Install" fails, and hoses eclipse for plugin development
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMODEVTOOLS-334
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-334
             Project: Geronimo-Devtools
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: eclipse-plugin
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
         Environment: windows
            Reporter: Ted Kirby
            Assignee: Tim McConnell
             Fix For: 2.1.0


Following instructions for 
http://geronimo.apache.org/developing-the-geronimo-eclipse-plugin-in-eclipse.html,
I launched the plugin, defined a server, and used the download and install 
button to download the server.  
In the launching eclipse, I got these messages:

In the error log, I got five occurrences of this message:
Unable to find feature.xml in directory: 
D:\gdvtls\eclipse-plugin\trunk\features\pom.xml,
for NOTICE, LICENSE, .svn and bigG.gif.

This freezes the eclipse window.  So, I shut it down.  Then, when I try to 
relaunch it, I got the dreaded unable to save configuration file!
which means I cannot launch the plugin, per step 6 of the aforementioned 
instructions.  I have not found a reliable way to recover from this dreaded 
error.
