Not able to see Axis2 Plugin for Eclipse

Question

Here's the problem:
I tried with multiple Eclipse IDE versions.

eclipse-jee-galileo-SR1-win32
eclipse-jee-galileo-SR2-win32
eclipse-jee-helios-SR2-win32
eclipse-jee-indigo-SR1-win32

Axis2 runtime is axis2-1.6.1

Axis2 Plugin from http://axis.apache.org/axis2/java/core/tools/index.html

org.apache.axis2.eclipse.service.plugin_1.6.1.jar
org.apache.axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin_1.6.1.jar

Tried putting above jars into either dropins or plugin directories, but not able to see Axis2 Wizard under File -> New -> Other (for all of the above eclipse IDEs).

Solution 1

There was indeed an issue with the 1.6.1 versions of the plugins. You can use 1.6.0 or one of the snapshot builds.

Solution 2

Try to apply the batch provided HERE

Solution 3

I also got thru though the 1.4.1 was able to show up axis2 wizard for Eclipse Indigo Service Release 2, Build id: 20120216-1857 Java 7 x86 32bit

But, picked up the latest snapshot 1.7.0 version: axis2.eclipse.service.plugin-1.7.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin-1.7.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Solution 4

Looks like there is a problem with org.apache.axis2.eclipse.service.plugin_1.6.1 and org.apache.axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin_1.6.1 plugins.

When I dropped under dropins folder in eclipse-jee-indigo-SR1-win32-x86_64. It didn't work.

As mentioned above I downloaded and used 1.6.2 axis2 plugins and it worked.
