error installing eclipse neon 2 bluemix plugin


I am trying to install the Bluemix plugin on Eclipse Neon.2 but it constantly throws an error:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
  Software being installed: WebSphere® Application Server Liberty Tools 1.0.2.v20161130_1957 (com.ibm.cftools.server.tools.feature.feature.group 1.0.2.v20161130_1957)

Solution

  • I just tried by downloading the latest Eclipse JEE Neon.2 package, e.g. from http://eclipse.bluemix.net/packages/neon.2/. Then, I got to Eclipse Marketplace from Eclipse IDE and find Bluemix Tools from the Eclipse marketplace to do the install the Bluemix Tools using the default installation options. I can install the Bluemix Tools successfully. I do not see the error that you described.

    Can you describe the exact steps that you use for doing the install?
