I have eclipse Oxygen and have Thym and IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation plugin installed. However when I try to create a new Hybrid Mobile Application Project, I got the following error:

Can not retrieve plugin catalog
Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 1 column 1 path $

Any suggestion on how to solve this issue ?

The IBM MobileFirst Studio plug-in helps you manage your Cordova project in the Eclipse development environment. Cordova projects are typically managed by entering commands on the Cordova command line.

Eclipse Oxygen is not supported by MobileFirst yet.

Supported Latest Eclipse Versions for MobileFirst & Thym plug-in: Neon (4.6)

For more information check:

  • I reinstalled eclipse, but this time I used Eclipse Neon. After installing Thym and MFP Studio from marketplace, I tried to create cordova project and it has the same issue. Then I left to do something else, and after awhile I tried it again. This time it works. Do you think connections to the cordova plugin repository is the issue? – widj91942 Apr 13 '18 at 03:11
  • May be due to proxy / connection issue, eclipse not able to connect with plugin repository. Also that issue is releted to OKHTTP wich caused due to connection. – Gaurab Kumar Apr 13 '18 at 03:19
  • Recommended way to use Cordova based project is command line interface (CLI). – Gaurab Kumar Apr 13 '18 at 03:22
  • Yeah, I ended up using the CLI – widj91942 Apr 13 '18 at 16:13
