I am unable to install Amazon SDK ToolKit for eclipse. I followed the instructions here. But after installing some packages, eclipse gives the following error

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software currently installed: Amazon SimpleDB Management 1.0.0.v201401072240 (com.amazonaws.eclipse.datatools.enablement.simpledb.feature.feature.group 1.0.0.v201401072240)
Missing requirement: Eclipse Data Tools Platform Amazon SimpleDB UI Plug-in 1.0.0.v201401072240 (com.amazonaws.eclipse.datatools.enablement.simpledb.ui 1.0.0.v201401072240) requires 'bundle org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools.sqlscrapbook 1.0.0' but it could not be found
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: Amazon SimpleDB Management 1.0.0.v201401072240 (com.amazonaws.eclipse.datatools.enablement.simpledb.feature.feature.group 1.0.0.v201401072240)
To: com.amazonaws.eclipse.datatools.enablement.simpledb.ui [1.0.0.v201401072240]

I am using Eclipse Juno. What is wrong here? I even tried opening the eclipse.exe directly as the 'Administrator', as mentioned here. Still it is not working.

  • Is the checkbox allowing Eclipse to contact all known update sites enabled? Is the Juno Update Site one of the known sites? – nitind Jan 18 '14 at 17:21
  • @nitind: sorry? I didn't understand. – PeakGen Jan 18 '14 at 17:32
  • @nitind: ahh, you mean "contact all update sites during install and find required software" ? Yes, it is checkd. – PeakGen Jan 18 '14 at 17:34
  • Do you have the Juno update site in the list of available update site? The message is saying it needs the `org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools.sqlscrapbook` plugin which is part of `Eclipse Data Tools Platform` which should be in the Juno update site. – greg-449 Jan 18 '14 at 19:25
  • @greg-449: and How can I add it if it is not there? – PeakGen Jan 18 '14 at 20:53

In case you are not using Java EE version of eclipse as recommended, you can add the needed data tools platform by clicking on Help and then click on Install new Software and add

http://download.eclipse.org/datatools/updates/1.11

and then proceeding with Amazon SDK ToolKit for eclipse.

  • I just went through this, and it turns out that the newer versions of the data tools platform does not work. `1.12` does not work with this. –  Sep 25 '14 at 21:54

If you check out the Getting Started Guide, we recommend that you start with the Java EE version of Eclipse. The SimpleDB tools depend on the Data Tools Platform.
