Hi Adam,
I think this is an issue with your Java's security not recognizing the root certificate authority (CA) SSL certificate of https://public.dhe.ibm.com
Have a look at these Stack Overflow issues and see if they can help you install the certificates locally.

Hi Tom,
According to https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/wiki/Previous-Versions, STS 4.20.1 was based on Eclipse 2023-09.
This wasn't supported when you posted this, but is now in WDT 23.2 (from your log, you were installing 23.1) so you should be good to go!
Thanks for using WDT!
Maven Integration broken
Submitted by David Oteo on Tue, 10/03/2023 - 03:34
This plugin breaks Maven integration as soon as you install it in any of the latetest versions of Eclipse. Maven menu just disappears from the IDE. I hope this will be fixed someday soon.

Hi , this is the same as the problem described below - I can copy the answer here too, this should work around the problem until Eclipse release the fix
Hi,
This I believe is a problem with Eclipse itself (see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=582183). You will likely see errors like this in the log file
"org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.eclipse.jst.server.preview.adapter [529]"
Can you edit the following file: `configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info`
And add this line to the file (anywhere should work but I tested putting it at the end of the file)
jakarta.enterprise.cdi-api,2.0.2,plugins/jakarta.enterprise.cdi-api_2.0.2.jar,4,false
This should put back the missing dependency which fixed a bunch of problems (maven integration being one of them)

Probably mirrors used for few jars require review
Submitted by Sudhakar Patil on Thu, 03/04/2021 - 11:23
Today, as part of the plugin installation through Eclipse 2020-06 R, download of most JAR files seems to work except few files whose size is above 30 MB. Even when the download was tried from browser, those files could not be downloaded fully.
The files which failed to download were:
1. com.ibm.helpwar.doc_1.0.0.v20121212_0720.jar (35,190,973)
2. com.ibm.rational.ttt.common.models.core_9.0.100.v20160212_2300.jar (34,086,041)
3. com.ibm.websphere.wdt.stubs_1.0.4.v20200826_1754.jar (44,824,252)
But we also noted that some files which were more than 30 MB could be downloded qucikly. Like:
com.ibm.websphere.v85.core_1.0.200.v20200826_1754.jar (47,107,222)
Due to this issue, we are not able to install the required plugin

Java11 problems ?
Submitted by Björn Isheden on Mon, 10/12/2020 - 11:00
Eclipse 2020-09 needs Java 11 as a minimum version to run on. This seems to cause problems when using theses plugins. For example when creating a new WebSphere 8.5 server I get a popup: "IBM JRE Warning - An attempt was made to use a WebSphere Application Server specific function, which is only supported on JRE 6.0, 7.0 or 8.0.

Eclipse 2020-09 or above does not support Java SE 8. WebSphere Application Server V8.5x Developer Tools only works on Eclipse IDE releases up to and including 2020-06 at the moment.

This plugin is not compatible with Eclipse v4.17 (2020-09) which supports only Java 11.
Is there a plan to fix this?

Some files pathname too long, exceed Win 256 pathname limitation
Submitted by Hsuehwen Wu on Tue, 06/23/2020 - 00:16
Some plugin files have long file pathname and they exceed Windows 256 pathname length limitation, this makes it difficult to move files around, you have to use special tools to cope with it , would you please remedy this in new release, thanks!

I can´t deploy/publish maven and gradle projects. Does the plugin support these types of projects? How could I make it work?

Could not initialize class com.ibm.ws.ffdc.FFDCFilter WorkAround

To workaround "Could not initialize class com.ibm.ws.ffdc.FFDCFilter" Run Eclipse on IBM Java JRE.
Eclipse Neon with IBM JRE

In reply to Could not initialize class com.ibm.ws.ffdc.FFDCFilter WorkAround by Fabio Mazzo
The IBM JAVA JRE from WebSphere 8.5 is 1.6. Eclipse Neon requires 1.8 JRE. So, cannot run it.

Any other suggestion?
Websphere Application Server randomly stops
Submitted by Richard Baldauf on Mon, 09/26/2016 - 08:08
The application server stops randomly and with the IBM Support we found out that the stop for the application server is sent from an local address.
It isn't stopped by myself.
If I work for ours with my applications on the WAS it works perfect, but then it could be that the server all 5 Minutes is stopped and I have to restart it.
With this output we could see that the shutdown is sent from local:

Is there a way to get a debug log from Plugin or can you give me a hint what I have to do that this doesn't happen?
