#680 EPIC 0.6.35 installation problem

[Markus Reusch]

Hello, I downloaded the update site zip for EPIC 0.6.35 and tried to install it into Eclipse (eclipse-cpp-luna-SR1a-win32-x86_64). I have also a Strawberry Perl 5.20.1001 installed. When using Help -> Install new SW -> Add -> Local -> selecting the folder with the xml, I get EPIC with it's version listed. Checking the box and then next, it tries to install it, but aborts with the following message:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: EPIC 0.6.35 (org.epic.feature.main.feature.group 0.6.35)
Missing requirement: EPIC 0.6.35 (org.epic.feature.main.feature.group 0.6.35) requires 'org.eclipse.platform.feature.group [3.2.0,4.0.0)' but it could not be found

I am sorry, I have not found nothing on the web about that and have no clue how to fix this. Maybe you have a hint for me. Thanks in forward!

Cheers
Markus

I suppose you cannot install normally from the update site? Then maybe try installing on another (Internet-connected) computer and then copy the $ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/org.epic.* to the $ECLIPSE_HOME/dropins/ directory on the target machine (see http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fp2_dropins_format.html)

I installed it on another box with connection to the internet and it worked without a problem. Thanks for the support.

The supported way to install epic is by installing it from the update site.
