Donald Woods closed GERONIMO-3095.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

This is a known limitation that has been there since day one for WASCE and we 
will not be fixing it in the 1.1 or 2.0 releases.  The WASCE version extends 
the Geronimo plugin and we change names and graphics to match our offering.

> Eclipse plugin conflict with Websphere Community Edition

>                 Key: GERONIMO-3095
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3095
>             Project: Geronimo
>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: public(Regular issues) 
>          Components: eclipse-plugin
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
>         Environment: Windows XP, Eclipse 3.2.2
>            Reporter: Bruno Melloni
>            Priority: Minor

> Discovered it trying to compare Geronimo with Websphere Community Edition 
> (Geronimo with supposedly improved management screens and labeled as 
> Websphere).  
> Steps:
> - Open Eclipse 3.2.2
> - Go to Servers view
> - Install new server support - for Geronimo and for Websphere Community 
> Edition.
> - Both "appear to install".
> - If attempt to install both without Eclipse restart after each, the first 
> one *does not* show in the list of servers nor in the list of server plugins 
> available for download (From a fresh Eclipse install, I used Geronimo as the 
> first server and Websphere CE as the second - no sign of Geronimo afterwards 
> in the list of servers or available server plugin downloads).
> - If restart after each install, only the first one installed shows in the 
> Server list afterwards, the second one shows in list of server plugins 
> available for download, but the install fails with "Error occurred installing 
> server: Could not download and install update feature." (From another fresh 
> Eclipse install I again used Geronimo as the first server and Websphere CE as 
> the second one - in this case Websphere CE does not show in the list of 
> servers).
> I suspect that the problem is caused by IBM failing to clearly differentiate 
> its plugin from the Apache-distributed Geronimo plugin thus confusing 
> Eclipse, but it can still give the impression that Geronimo is at fault and 
> might be worth investigating and maybe requiring IBM (and future 
> Geronimo-based plugins from other vendors) to do a better job.
> Workaround:
> - Use two separate installs of Eclipse, one with Geronimo and one with 
> Websphere.  Very annoying, but functional.
