Location of STS directory on Eclipse plugin install


I've installed the STS tools in eclipse to use with grails: http://grails.org/STS+Integration

I've encountered the following problem when trying to install the "Groovy Eclipse" extension under the Language and Framework Tooling:

cannot install groovy-eclipse because sts installation directory is read-only

So I'm assuming I need to make the directory writable!

Problem is, I cannot figure out where this directory acually got installed to!

Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks


Solution

  • You need to chmod or chown the dir that you installed STS into. On my box I have install STS under /opt/springsource
