As I never remember how to install the WebDAV plugin for Eclipse installations newer than version 3.1 I would like to share the information how to do that:
- Download the plugin FTP/WebDAV feature
- Unizp the downloaded file
eclipse-FTP-WebDAV-I20070430-0800.zip
- Copy the contents from the folder
features
to<YOUR_ECLIPSE_FOLDER>/features
- Copy the contents from the folder
plugins
to<YOUR_ECLIPSE_FOLDER>/plugins
- Restart Eclipse
- In Eclipse, choose from the menu bar
Window
>Show View
>Other ...
>Target Management
>Site Explorer
- The Site Explorer view should be visible now. Right click into the Site Explorer view and choose
New
>Target Site
- From the popup window choose
WebDAV
, clickNext
and enter theServer URL
,User
andPassword
(in most cases you can leave theProxy Server URL
empty)
That’s it!
Glad it was helpful for you!
Thanks for this post is indeed already what older, but I’ll try the plugin still time.
That is a cool plugin.
Thank you, this has me very helped.
Hi Ed,
I just tested the instructions with Eclipse Helios – everything worked as expected. I added a screenshot to the article so it might be more evident where to add the Site Explorer view.
HTH!

Florian
Tried this under 3.6.1 – it doesn’t work (no Target Management view and no Site Explorer showing under windows/show view/other)
Thank you …
Hi Juan, it always used to work for me and my colleagues … could you therefore please describe in more detail what’s not working for you?
