Created attachment 1713 [details] Error displayed when creating a local BB Commander project with an existing clone poky 6ee5d95317de77c1cfb6db6f1ab2de77f5fa085e eclipse-poky-kepler c73c6e4510c42601854f3c542ca6e14b4510380c HOST: Ubuntu 13.10 64bit STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Perform a headless build for eclipse 2. Install eclipse plugin 3. Open Eclipse and switch to Bitbake Commander perspective on the right corner of the Eclipse window. 4. Create a new BitBake commander project: 4.1 File -> New -> Project ->Yocto Bitbake Commander -> New Yocto Project 4.2 Set Remote Service Provider to Local and Connection Name to Local 4.3 Set Project Location as the current a folder that contains an existing poky directory 4.4 Set Project Name as the actual poky directory name 4.5 "Clone from Yocto Project Git Repository into new location" has to be unchecked EXPECTED RESULT A local Bitbake Commander project should be created using the existing git clone ACTUAL RESULT An error saying that a project with the same name already exists is displayed (as seen in the atachment)
The bug can also be reproduced in Juno
This is the expected behavior since you already have a poky directory. If you want to clone, find a directory that doesn't contain poky or change the project name to something else, e.g. poky2
I think this would be the expected behavior if I would want to clone from the Git Repository (and I would check the corresponding check-box), but in this case I wanted to use an existing clone and I didn't check the corresponding check-box
Look at your project view on the left side, there's already a project with that name exist, that's why you got the error message
I couldn't reproduce on my Fedora 20. I will investigate further on Ada's machine.
Verified with eclipse Kepler, on master branch commit 2d1660112e54653f7bb763939d0416472c49fe01 Cheers! Andra N.
