cannot install perl epic in eclipse

hi to all, i've centos 7.5 in VM. I installed successfully eclipse and now i am trying to install EPIC 0.6.35 but giving this error.

Code:

Your original request has been modified.

  "EPIC" is already installed, so an update will be performed instead.

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

  Software being installed: EPIC 0.6.35 (org.epic.feature.main.feature.group 0.6.35)

  Missing requirement: EPIC 0.6.35 (org.epic.feature.main.feature.group 0.6.35) requires 'org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu; org.eclipse.platform.feature.group [3.2.0,4.0.0)' but it could not be found

how to solve this.

looks like you need to install equinox first.

I installed equinox from rpms and then trying to install epic but having same error. Please help.

You again don't provide details; such as where you got these RPM's, how you installed them, what message(s) you got during the install, etc. Are you running the install as root or a regular user?

Packages for these things are available for CentOS, and can be install via yum.

As you have been asked before, please provide more detail so that others can help you. No one else has access to your system or knows anything about what you may have installed or what you have done to troubleshoot the problem.

You say that you installed equinox from rpms, but that does not tell us whether it was the correct version or package for your system, whether you used the distro package manager or simply forced the rpm install, what messages it may have produced, etc.

As you have been asked before, please review the Site FAQ for guidance in posting your questions and general forum usage. Especially, read the link in that page, How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. The more effort you put into understanding your problem and framing your questions, the better others can help!

i got these rpms from yum repository. I downloaded and then installed. those are :-

Code:

rh-eclipse46-eclipse-equinox-osgi-4.6.3-3.1.el7.x86_64.rpm

rh-eclipse46-eclipse-filesystem-1.0-7.2.el7.x86_64.rpm

rh-eclipse46-runtime-1-15.el7.x86_64.rpm

rh-java-common-javapackages-tools-4.3.2-1.14.el7.noarch.rpm

rh-java-common-python-javapackages-4.3.2-1.14.el7.noarch.rpm

rh-java-common-PyXB-1.2.4-1.4.el7.noarch.rpm

rh-java-common-runtime-1.1-47.el7.x86_64.rpm

Again:

You don't tell us WHERE you got these RPM's...saying "yum repository" tells us very little.
You don't tell us HOW you installed these RPM's, despite being asked
You don't tell us the message(s) you got during the installation

...because if you just did a "yum install", it would have either installed things correctly, with all dependencies, or complained about something being missing. If you used an RPM command to install them, which one was it and what was the input/output??

A guess would be that you're actually using RHEL, but telling us you're using CentOS...this would explain why you're not just using yum to install things, versus RPM commands.

sorry for my late response, I get these rpmm just as :-

Code:

# centos-release-scl-rh-2-3.el7.centos.noarch.rpm --downloaddir=.

then download as follows :-

Code:

# yum install devtoolset-4-eclipse-equinox-osgi --downloaddir=.

i got this name (devtoolset-4-eclipse-equinox-osgi)from google.

Great...so you downloaded it to a different directory. You *STILL* don't say how you downloaded it, from where, and you don't say why you're specifying a download directory. To install a package, you just type in "yum install <package name>"...that's it.
