Description Lark Fitzgerald 2007-11-15 18:20:11 UTC 
See issue:
REGRESSION: Cannot install downloaded NBM with a newer spec number.

attempts to install the woodstock.dev.java.net 4.1 FCS nbms into RC1 is failing.
Comment 1 Jiri Rechtacek 2007-11-15 19:15:58 UTC 
Investigating...

But I need to know which build (Full IDE, J2EE IDE), OS, the messages.log is the best way. Please attach.
Comment 2 Jiri Rechtacek 2007-11-15 19:25:33 UTC 
Plugin Manager worksforme. The installed version of 'woodstock' in latest-pre-RC1 build is 2.0.1
(http://bits.netbeans.org/download/6.0/pre-rc1/nightly/latest/zip/) but specification version of the module at
https://woodstock.dev.java.net/Download.htm is 2.0.0.1, e.g. lower then 2.0.1. In this case is the message that the
module is already installed is truth for sure.

Comment 4 camucci 2007-11-15 19:32:08 UTC 
I am able to reproduce this issue with NB6 RC1 build and the Build15 GA nbms.

NB6 build from 11/14/07 [DIR] 2007-11-14_13-16-45/ http://smetiste.czech.sun.com/builds/netbeans/6.0/daily/latest/

and the nbms pulled down from the woodstock.dev.java.net site:
https://woodstock.dev.java.net/Download.htm (4.1 bld 15 from 11/08/07)
Comment 5 Jiri Rechtacek 2007-11-15 19:35:43 UTC 
Thanks for information. By your messages log is sure that your woodstock module (already installed in the build) has the
version 2.0.1 but the exposed version at dev.java.net has version 2.0.0.1 only.
Comment 6 Dongmei Cao 2007-11-15 19:50:20 UTC 
In that case, the "OpenIDE-Module-Specification-Version: 2.0.0.1" in 
woodstock\ide-plugins\netbeans\woodstock-suite\components\manifest.mf
woodstock\ide-plugins\netbeans\woodstock-suite\defaulttheme\manifest.mf
needs to be increased
Comment 7 camucci 2007-11-16 16:26:15 UTC 
Lark confirmed that the Open IDE Module version for our RC nbms has
always been 2.0.0.1.  I've retested the NB6 RC1 build from 11/08 and was
able to download the Project Woodstock 4.1 B15 RC nbms.

So it does indeed look like something changed in the NB installer
between 11/8 and 11/16 to cause this issue.  Lark searched through
Issuezilla but hasn't found anything yet.
Comment 8 camucci 2007-11-16 16:33:45 UTC 
The fix is needed in Project Woodstock.
