Maven integrating in Eclipse RAD impossible

Question

I'm using RAD and since the morning I'm trying to integrate Maven with Eclipse(RAD) by using that command: Help -> Instal New Software, then putting this link:

http://download.eclipse.org/m2e-wtp/releases/

then checked "Maven integration for Eclipse"

the errors occured below:

Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.
Software being installed: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.4.0.20130601-0317     (      org.eclipse.m2e.feature.feature.group 1.4.0.20130601-0317)

I have no idea what mentioned "Eclipse Jobs Mechanism... " is I can't find its in the installed software.

Tried to use another repositories like:

http://bitstrings.github.com/m2e-connectors-p2/releases

http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/.m2e/connectors/m2eclipse-mavenarchiver/0.15.0/N/0.15.0.201207090125/

They let me start the instalation but It's stop in +/- 40 %...

Anyone could help me install Maven in my IDE? Thank You in advance

Answer 1

Did you use the maven installation instructions by IBM?

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/form/anonymous/api/wiki/2fad2df2-9c68-4aa3-abba-01e910211998/page/5531e600-93c7-46f6-86f4-a570b1bcf391/attachment/9f11dc95-a9ae-4522-9ed1-2c8a7ca165cd/media/RAD_m2e-Nov(update%20Jun%202012).pdf

Answer 2

I have ceased installing m2e within RAD "myself" (in the sense of using an update site in Install New Software). Rather I use the option "Maven" via the IBM Installation Manager.

Answer 3

Is there any particular reason you are installing Maven using that update site link instead of installing it using Installation Manager? To install Maven using Installation Manager you just need to open IM and select the checkbox for Maven.

Answer 4

In case somebody still has to use this old version of RAD:

http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/m2eclipse-wtp/ does not work - it points to the latest version of m2e which requires a newer base-eclipse.

Instead, add all of the following locations:

• http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases/1.4/
• http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/m2e-extensions/m2eclipse-wtp/
• http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/m2e-extensions/m2e-mavenarchiver/
