Hi Ashish, it only worked for me the other day because I had first downloaded the GEP plugin via the Update Manager. It won't work correctly if you. Your scenario is only slightly different than the one we warned against in the following documentation. I investigated this problem back in 2.1.0 and have a very long writeup for why it won't work (which I'll try to find again). But for now, if you plan to use the "Download and Install" feature of the GEP just ensure you use the Update Manager first to download the plugin. Thanks.

Hi Ted,
Thanks for your reply! Yes you are correct it works fine once you have installed it through Eclipse update manager. Somehow it worked for Tim day before yesterday. May be he can suggest something.

Thanks
Ashish

    Download and Install is very touchy.  I have mostly never been able to
    get it to work when launching the plugin from eclipse, as you are
    doing.  It worked for me for a little while when I first started
    working with Ganymede, but then stopped.  I've pretty much had to give
    up on developing it this way. :-(  So, you'll have to build the
    plugin, and install it via the eclipse update manager.   :-(
