HI Vamsi, As per the release process for the GEP
(http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxPMGT/release-eclipse-plugin-process.html) the
staging site that I've created can be used to emulate the various eclipse update
sites where the server runtimes and the GEP can be downloaded. As it is now
though, the st.v21.core plugin of the GEP on the staging site will point back to
the same staging site for downloading the runtimes, and only that staging site.
The "absolute urls" as you call them will get resolved/updated when the GEP is
released and pushed out to the official Eclipse update sites. You can still
unzip the 2.1.0-deployable.zip file if you wish, but you still must add the
staging site as a remote update site for the plugin to find the server runtimes.
Sorry for the confusion, and I can update the instructions if they need
clarification. Hope this helps. Thanks

Looks like the server binaries are downloaded from a runtimes directory
under the update site url. Should these be absolute urls pointing to
distributions located under http://www.apache.org/dist/geronimo/ ? Why
should the method of plugin installation matter to how the plugin works?

"Download and Install" option while adding a "New Server" does not

. Is anyone else seeing this problem?
