SpringSource Tool Suite 缺少 Spring MVC 项目模板

这不是

这样做与使用真正的模板项目的唯一区别是模板项目会自动为您配置一些东西，例如基本包和项目名称.但是，所有这些都可以在导入后更改.

This is not a duplicate of Spring Tool Suite missing Spring MVC project template

Using STS 2.9.2 and have the com.springsource.sts.wizard_2.9.2.201205071000-RELEASE in my plugins folder.

I want to use Spring MVC project template but cannot find it either on dashboard or under the "New->Other->SpringSource Tool Suite" menu.

I do not want to make a new installation, lots of installed plugins exist.

For STS 3.0, the way that template projects are accessed has been changed, so it doesn't surprise me that you don't see the template project in the dashboard. However, you should see it in the new dialog. I'm not sure what could be happening. You could have a look at your error log and look for relevant stack traces (and paste them here).

Or you could install STS 3.1 or later. The easiest is probably to just go to the git repo where the template project exists, clone it and import it into your workspace as a maven project.

Here's the repo:

The only difference between doing that and using a true template project is that the template project configures a few things automatically for you, like the base package and the project name. All this can be changed after importing, however.
