Error creating new project - Failed while installing Sightly 1.1

[jgrandscrutton]

Using latest Eclipse, dev tools and archetype I get a "Failed while installing Sightly 1.1" error. Here's the Eclipse log info:

I tried removing "Sling IDE Tools - Sightly Integration (Optional)" but I still get the same error. It appears that it might still be installed for AEM Developer Tools, but I don't have the option to uninstall it from there:

[Millertaker]

Same Issue , and another ones. To make it solve i have to run the maven build command through terminal : mvn -PautoInstallPackage -PintegrationServer install and them add to the server in eclipse

[CloudNinja42]

Same issue. New to AEM but just wanted to add my observation: I created a project and then deleted it from Eclipse and the workspace directory - I then got this error when I tried to recreate it. So somewhere Eclipse is picking up something that obstructs the project creation that wasn't in the workspace directory. When I create projects with new names it works 100%.

[CloudNinja42]

On retrying the same project name for the n-th time, it actually worked. But yeah, there is definitely something wrong here - but unfortunately I can't consistently replicate the issue.

[CloudNinja42]

Can this be a problem with Maven itself. Anyhoo - new to AEM so won't speculate..

[rombert]

@dutoitns - could you file a separate bug report for the issue with Unable to load compiled class: org.myorg.mywebsite.it.tests.HelloWorldModelServerSideTest ?

[CloudNinja42]

I could - but I think the problem is actually something intermittently going wrong with the Maven build. (and I can't replicate the issue consistently)

[rombert]

Right, I'm also unable to replicate this consistently, which makes debugging and fixing much harder.

[timdonovanuk]

FWIW some graduates I'm training up are also getting these identical errors! They are using an older version of Eclipse, getting them to update to Eclipse 2020 to see..

[gabrielwalt]

Closing this as there hasn't been activity for over a year.

[timdonovanuk]

@gabrielwalt Are you referring to Adobe investment in this plugin, because a truer statement has never been said ;)
