Running sbt results in "com.typesafe.sbteclipse#sbteclipse;1.4.0: not found"

Question

I'm running Windows 7 x64 cygwin.

I just installed the latest sbt for Martin Odersky's Coursera Scala class after a previous version was installed about a year ago. First I tried removing the old version and using the msi installer. It returned the below error upon running sbt from an empty directory.

Later I tried uninstalling the msi version and manually installing the (latest) sbt-launch.jar file and calling it from the old script. I got the same error.

Any ideas what's wrong? Is there an sbt plugins directory somewhere that could be causing this?

Answer 1

My older installation had an old version of the sbteclipse plugin installed. I finally remembered that the .sbt directory on Windows is in the C:\Users\[username] folder.

Edit build.sbt file in the C:\Users\[username]\plugins folder and per the sbtplugin page, replace the addSbtPlugin line with:

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse-plugin" % "2.1.0")

Answer 2

Are you sure you started sbt in the correct directory, i.e. progfun/example? Instead of the one that has confusingly been named progfun/example/project.
