Hi

I've created a simple Setup Product Model (please see bellow).

P2Task and EclipseIniTask works fine. But PreferenceTask is ignored. Eclipse Installer doesn't show these tasks on a confiramtion page and doesn't execute them.

How could I fix it?

It seems that WorkingSetTask is ignored as well. Installer shows and executes only bootstrap tasks. Is it possible to execute other tasks too during product installation or a first launch?

These other task must run in the IDE so can only run in the installation once the installation is launched. I expect they should work fine in the launched IDE because hundreds of setups use these and work find.

I've got it! I should add explicit Oomph requirements to the setup model:

      <requirement
          name="org.eclipse.oomph.setup.feature.group"/>
      <requirement
          name="org.eclipse.oomph.projectconfig.feature.group"/>
      <requirement
          name="org.eclipse.oomph.preferences.feature.group"/>
      <requirement
          name="org.eclipse.oomph.workingsets.feature.group"/>

And after the first Eclipse launch these tasks are executed.

Sorry for spam. Maybe it will be helpful for someone. Here is a wiki page entry: https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Oomph_Authoring#The_preference_task_does_not_setup_any_preferences
