Can not create new AEM project. The wizard will fail to popup. [Eclipse show :This step defines which server to use with the new project.]

I have installed and configure Eclipse AEM plugin. Then start to create a new AEM project by eclipse. But always failed.

I find some same issue on stackoverflow.

When I try to use command line to create, it succeed. I don't know why eclipse have this issue. Who can help me?

I think the plugin has the problem, if you Click cancel and then run a build from console and them add to the server in eclipse, it will work.

Go to root of your project and run the maven command: mvn -PautoInstallPackage -PintegrationServer install
