Hello Everyone,
I'm running the latest Eclipse Europa version on Mac OS 10.5.2. I have
never run into this issue before. I went to install Findbugs
(something I've done on Windows many times) today and I got the
following error.
Data Tools Platform Enablement for ODA Runtime (1.5.2.2000802201)
requires feature "org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.feature
(1.5.2)", or compatible.
I tried hitting Select Required to no effect.
I then selected every available update site in the "Find and Install
Updates..." Dialog and brought them all up. Any feature I select in
the dialog comes up with the exact same error, which is even more
bizarre. I can’t even install the DTP.
Any thoughts as to what I could do to fix this problem? If there's a
better place I can post, just let me know.
Thanks in advance!

You might also want to try posting in eclipse.webtools, in case someone more
familiar with DTP recognizes the problem.
What JRE are you running on? (Are you sure? Check in Help -> About ->
Configuration Details to be sure.)
You say that the problem hasn't happened before. Any clues about what might
have changed? Firewall settings, other software installed in the interim,
....?
Have you tried searching Bugzilla to see if anything similar pops up? The
problem sounds familiar to me but not familiar enough to point me in a
specific direction. I'd probably first try searching for bugs with that
feature name in the comments.

The first thing I'll mention is that the Update Manager will not install
any new features until the current configuration is error-free - that is
why you get the message for whatever feature you try to install.
The missing feature *shuould* be available on the Europa Discovery Site;
keep in mind that the Select Required button only works well if you have
expanded all the root nodes in the list of update sites - it does not
search the site contents until its nodes are expanded and Select
Required can't see features that have not been "loaded" yet. There is a
bugzilla report to correct this, but I don't have it handy. Anyway,
Update Manager is being replaced in Eclipse 3.4, so it seems unlikely
this bug will be fixed.
If you still can't locate that feature in the DTP, you can try disabling
the feature that is requiring it (Data Tools Platform Enablement for ODA
Runtime) via the Manage Configuration dialog.
Hope this helps,
Eric

Thanks for the thoughts, Eric. How can I find out if my configuration
is error-free? I understand that it looks like it is but I don't see
any place glaringly telling me that I have an error in my configuration.
Thanks in advance!

Well, the Update Manager told you ;-)
Other than that, I think you can go to the Manage Configuration dialog
(via Help > Software Updates) and see if any features in the list are
marked as error.
You can probably open the Error Log view (Window > Show View > Other)
and see if any plugs report that they can't load. If you don't have
Error Log view, you can open the file directly in <workspace>/.metadata/.log
Hope this helps,
Eric
