An update was downloaded automatically by my 2.6.3.RELEASE Build 201411281425.
STS (Spring Tool Suite) asks to install it and when I click on the pop-up window it does some things and then stops with the following message which seem to indicate that it wants to delete itself.
I can understand why this fails but I am not sure why STS would think that this was possible.
I could not find any instructions about manually installing the zip file that is available as a download as an alternative way to upgrade my installation.
How do I fix the automatic install or manually install the zip?
(I am on Windows 7)

Start the STS you want to upgrade and before you click on "Check for Upgrades", with STS still running, rename the STS.exe file you just started, to something else, like "STS_old.exe". That should do it.
The message sounds strange, I've never seen this before. To install a fresh copy of STS, just download the ZIP file from the download page (the one that matches your operating system and pick the right 32bit or 64bit one, depending on your OS and the JDK you are using). Then unzip, and start STS.exe. That's it.

Could anyone please help me with steps to upgrade "My WebMethods Server" from 10.1 to 10.5 using/applying patches/fixes?
Upgrade document is clear enaough if you read it all but just in case you want to play safe, this is how I’ve done it:
1- Install DBConfigurator to new location (If you are performing upgrade on the same machine).
2- Install Update Manager.
3- Install latest fixes for DBConfguratior.
4- Run the latest db scripts. (If you installed the scripts already, perform migrate operation after installing fixes for DBConfguratior).
5- Perform Installation of the new version.
6- Shutdown both old and new instances. Run the migrate utility from the new installation.
7- Migration utility will ask for old version installation directory. (Or you can have an export of the old version as a zip file).
8- Follow the steps guided by migration utility, It will ask couple of questions which you can answer by typing Y or N.
9- If everything goes OK, you should be getting the message below. (Might be different for newer versions.)
Failed migrations
None
Migration successful. Exiting the migration utility.
*** End Integration Server Migration ***
10- Validate the scripts you are using for startup have the new installation directory. I faced a couple of problems with that.
Bonus : Make sure the extendend setting about java compiler have the right path for the jvm. watt.server.compile=…\jvm\jvm\bin\javac -classpath {0} -d {1} {2}
So I upgraded to MacOS Sierra and now whenever I try to do anything in my working copy I get the error that it
"is too old (format 29) to work with client version '1.9.4 (r1740329)' (expects format 31). You need to upgrade the working copy first."
When I run svn upgrade, as it suggests it says
"Can't open file /.svn/entries: No such file or directory"
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Open Terminal
go to error folder. ex : cd svn/project/game
command write only "svn upgrade"
Your problem is that the version of the SVN client got upgraded locally; whereas your local working copy (and the server) didn't change! Now the new client is unable to work with the existing working copy.
Now you have three choices:
You can try to get your new SVN client to accept the existing working copy
You downgrade your local SVN client to the previous version
You throw your existing repositories away and start with fresh checkouts
For option 1, you might look here or there.
For option 2, this might help.
Option 3; I guess, is the one-line-no-brainer which maybe costs you download time, but should come with the least amount of "you spending your time" debugging this (unless you got a ton of uncommitted changes sitting in your current repositories). But of course, you would first try to create a new checkout with the new client, before throwing the old directory away.
I solved my problem by doing the 'svn upgrade' on the 'cd' of root folder of the project
I installed the JDK8u40, but only find the javafx-src.zip.
Where can I find the source code for JDK? The src.zip?
Below is what I get after installation:
And btw, I didn't see the installation wizard! This is quite strange.
ADD 1
Today I tried several Java installation packages. All are downloaded from Oracle official site.
jdk-6u45-windows-i586.exe
jdk-7u75-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u20-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u25-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u31-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u40-windows-i586.exe
Both 6u45 and 7u75 installed well on my box. I can see the install wizard. And the src.zip is installed.
But 8u25 ~ 8u40 all installed silently. And no src.zip file is installed because I have no chance to select it in the wizard.
I am not sure if this is my fault or someone at Oracle made a mistake.
As #SubOptimal commented, the /s option indicates a silent install. I am wondering if there's an option to force the GUI install wizard to open.
I am using Windows 7 Enterprise x64 Build 7601 SP1
Make sure the Source code is not disabled when downloading.
Then as you can see on the picture, selecting "Source Code" will tell you exactly where it is located.
Notice that I've downloaded the 32 bits version to make sure to reproduce the same use case as you.
Edit
As per your new edits and comments, it seems what you want to know now is why you don't see the installation wizards. I'm pretty sure this is due to old-set registry key.
Run the following command
reg query hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products /f "java" /s | find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Now, navigate to each of the returned path browsing with regedit and delete their entire parent (the big hexa number).
Re-try the installation and I'm pretty sure you will see the wizard.
As for the sources, Oracle documentation specify how to download them in silent mode.
jdk.exe /s ADDLOCAL="SourceFeature"
This is the way I got the src folder from jdk-8u172-windows-x64.exe file without installing.
Step1: Download jdk-8u172-windows-x64.exe file (Java SE Development Kit 8u172) from oracle site
Step2: Extract it and navigate to the path:
\jdk-8u172-windows-x64.rsrc\1033\JAVA_CAB9
Step3: Right click on file named "110" and extract it.
You will get the src.zip file.
It took me little while to figure this out. I hope it will help others.
Enjoy debugging Good Code!
I don't know why/where the src.zip is, but as an alternative, if all you want is the source and somehow the proposed method doesn't work for you, you could always pull directly from the JDK8u40 source tree.
You will need Mercurial instead of Git. This link talks about the hg clone command
Quoting from the OpenJDK Java.net site
The corresponding master forest jdk8u can be cloned using this command: hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u;cd jdk8u;sh get_source.sh .
In addition, the source code for the last release, 8u40, is available by cloning the 8u40 master forest : http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u40. The final build of that release was tagged as jdk8u40-b25.
There are differences between OpenJDK and Oracle's, though subtle
download JDK 8 from following link
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk-8-readme-2095712.html
src.zip comes in-built with it
if you JDK installer silently skips installing the source. just open the control panel > programs an features and find Java. Right click on it and select change and then select the
source (option) ;)
Download the JDK
Run the Installer, but stop right away
Extract src.zip from C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\LocalLow\Oracle\ss180121.cab
You can extract .zip from .cab with tool like 7Zip

I am trying to configure Eclipse for Windows to meet my workplace's requirements, and in doing so the program ran out of memory and crashed. I am trying again with a fresh install (deleted all files I could find related to Eclipse and recopied).
I have a Git perspective available, but it is completely blank. Git is not listed in my current plugins, and not present in my plugins folder that I can find. If I try to install it, however, I am told it already exists.
Eclipse Version: 3.6.2
EGit Version: 1.1.0.201109151100-r
You can usually fix a lot of problems like this by doing a
$ eclipse -clean
You may have to add this to your eclipse.ini file.
If this doesn't work, start from a clean install (the eclipse directory & the workspace).
A project I am working on requires an old version of SLAPD (the LDAP
server) and must run on Windows, hence I am using cygwin packages:
I've found a binary package of slapd version I need 2.2.x here:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/sourceware.org/pub/cygwin/release/...
How do I manually install it in cygwin? It does not seem to be a package-manager file format (like an RPM or a Deb), but is there a tool to install it for me?
FYI, I'm operating behind a corporate firewall that prevents me from viewing the main cygwin site (including the documentation), so please nobody tell me to RTFM - I wish I could!
Thanks
If you need an older version, the Cygwin time machine might help. To use it, I had to invoke setup.exe from the command line, giving it the --no-verify/-X option and it still wouldn't let me downgrade the "cygwin" package itself but at least it is, albeit very slowly, allowing me to install the version I wanted to test as a parallel installation.
If you are using the cygwin package installer to install this package, usually if you select to view the full info and scroll to the package you need you will see some info about the version.
Now if you click on the version number you will see that it changes from the oldest in the repository to the current. If your repository has the version you need then just finish the wizard.
Some cygwin mirrors keep old package files, for example, http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/cygwin/
You can use Sonatype nexus to mirror an existing cygwin repository, but provide your own setup.ini .
Copy the already downloaded repo content to c:\progs\nexus\sonatype-work\nexus\storage\mirror.isoc.org.il-pub-cygwin\
Put your own setup.ini and setup.bz2 there.
Start setup.exe with --no-verify
Paste
http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/repositories/mirror.isoc.org.il-pub-cygwin/
into the mirror selection box and click "Add"
