Re: Installing the toolkit
Seth, The distro/packaging I had initially downloaded was Eclipse IDE for Java Developers<http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/heliossr2> . * *There were no sites in the available software sites. Your questions led me to download Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers<http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/heliossr2> . Again there were no sites in the available software sites. However on checking the "Already Installed List" the missing plugin was there and I was able to install the GPE from the zip file and the designer from the update site. I can now move on and try to automate a bunch of spreadsheets that I have in google docs. I would be interested in knowing why the first distro did not include the required plugin if you know or if there are some instructions that I missed. Again thanks for your help. For someone who left coding (Pascal Fortran and C, {compile -> assemble -> link}) to move to management and now retired this new world is certainly different, but; I am sure the juices will once again flow and the excitement of discovery will be very rewarding.

Re: Installing the toolkit
Seth, I am using Version: Helios Service Release 2 Build id: 20110218-0911. I am really bummed now. I have another computer that I use solely for my day trading. It is a very capable HP with an Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20 GHz with 8 GB of ram and more disk space then I will ever use. So I loaded the JDK, Eclipse and tried to install the GPE from the update site and a local download. Exact same problem. I do not have a proxy running and I disabled the firewall completely. No Luck. I tried running eclipse as administrator. No difference. I hate to give up on this but I really don't know what to try next. Thanks for your assistance. john On Thu, Jun 9, 2011 at 5:38 PM, Seth Hollyman wrote: > > Hurm. > > You don't happen to have either some kind of network proxy, host-based > firewall, or antivirus software that might be interfering with eclipse's > attempts to communicate with the network, would you?

Re: Installing the toolkit
Seth, Thanks.. You were right about the wrong zip file. (Too many acronyms) I did download from the link you suggested and this time the install function detected the availability. However I still end up with a report stating that required items could not be found. I tried installing just the GWT as well and this did not work. On the issue of network problems I am using an unlimited version of Verizon FIOS and never had any problems with the network ( I day trade extensively and download large files quite often) I have stopped and started the computer many times and nothing seems to change the scenario. At this point I am thinking there must be something wrong with Eclipse and I will try a re install to see if I can get a different result. Thanks again.

Re: Installing the toolkit
David, I do not know which items could not be found as it the install function simply reports "Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found."

Re: Installing the toolkit
Thanks Brip. This is very frustrating. I tried what you suggested and in the archive location I end up with "jar:file/C:/Users/John/Downloads/gwt-2.3.0.zip!/" and when I try to use the location the install package says "Could not find jar:file/C:/Users/John/Downloads/gwt-2.3.0.zip!/" This should not be so difficult. Do you know if there is a list of the required items that should be on the download site? Thanks again for trying to help.
