Unable to install ondemand tools for eclipse (juno)

[Former Member]

Hello All,

After reading FAQ etc, and trying some of the solutions there,I didnt find a working answer for this issue:

I have read and agreed to the EULA, created a trial account, and am now trying to install the ondemand tools in eclipse juno. However it is repeatedly (even after waiting some time in case the trial account creation has to ripple across the ether) throwing the following error:

org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core.ProvisionException

Unable to read repository at https://tools.netweaver.ondemand.com/juno/content.xml.

sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Thanks

Hi Stuart,

very likely you did not agreed to the NW Cloud Development Kit EULA. This is a separate EULA that you need to agree in addition to the one for the trial account.

Please try to download the NW Cloud SDK as described on https://tools.netweaver.ondemand.com/ step 3. Here you get much better error messages than in Eclipse. If you succeed to download the SDK, the Eclipse tool installation will (hopefully) succeed as well.

For more trouble shooting info, please see http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-28325.

Best regards,

Stephan

Hi Stephan,

Thanks ... I had already done that and downloaded the SDK. I have repeated that step a number of times, so maybe its a synchornization thing.

Please check your proxy settings (for http and https protocols) and delete the Secure Store as descibed in http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-28325 (last FAQ before Known Issues).

If problems persist, please send your user id (p1234567) and the time when you tried installation. Then I can check the update site logs to see if there are problems.

Best regards,

Stephan

One more point: do you have 32 bit and 64 bit Eclipse installed?

If yes, see https://help.netweaver.ondemand.com/default.htm?setting_up_tools.html regarding -

eclipse.keyring parameter.

Hi Stephan

I am using 32-bit Eclipse.

I have now tried every fix on the FAQ with no change.

I have other versions of the Eclipse installed (all in separate workspaces, for development in NW 7.0 and NW 7.11 and NW 7.3. None of thes conflict with each other.

Last attempt was by S0006810373 at around 15:40 EST.

Thanks.

Hi Stuart,

I checked the log files and there is no access to https://tools.netweaver.ondemand.com/juno by your s-user (only download of SDK).

Please run the following tests:

1. Help > Install New Software... >  http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno . Check if you can see Categories and Features.
2. Help > Install New Software... > https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/gef-master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/update-site . Check if you can see Categories and Features.
3. Close Eclipse. Delete %USERPROFILE%\.eclipse (!!! this deletes all your credentials and passwords from secure store for all Eclipse installations !!!). Start Eclipse. If test #2 failed, re-run it. If it succeeded: Help > Install New Software... > https://tools.netweaver.ondemand.com/juno. Check if you can see Categories and Features (and finally install NW Cloud Tools)
4. Which JVM do you use? Please check in Help > About Eclipse > Installation Details > Configuration. Look up java.vm properties and java.home. Did you modify the certificates of the JVM?
5. Download a fresh Java SE Development Kit 6 Update 33 (Windows x86). Install it to let's say C:\jdk-1.6.0_33. Edit eclipse.ini of you Eclipse installation and add the following two lines in the beginning of eclipse.ini (must be two lines!):
   -vm
   C:/bin/jdk-1.6.0_33/bin
6. Verify that your fresh SDK installation is used (test 4) and re-run tests 2 and 3.

Best regards,

Stephan

Hi,

in step 5 it should actually be:

-vm

C:/jdk-1.6.0_33/bin

Hi Stephan,

Thanks for your comprehensive check-list.

1. Was OK
2. Was OK
3. Did not do
4. 1.6.0_33 already
5. Did not do
6. Did not do

But today I get prompted in Install New Software for my S-Number and p/w and so now the tools are downloaded and installed in Eclipse.

Deleting %USERPROFILE%\.eclipse did solve my problem, because I had an excisting 64bit-version running and now wanted to install the 32bit version.

Unfortunately this seems to be a common area of issues, hence I compiled a screencast of me walking through all the required steps. It only takes 10 minutes to view, so maybe it would help:
