I can only imagine that this comes up when the extension point tries to instantiate the provider class. If it fails due to: issues with the plugin.xml or MANIFEST.MF, missing code or files due to the build setup. I would assume there is more information in the server logs or in the Eclipse log in the .metadata folder.

the pre/post condition plugins run on the server, totally separated from any UI.

where are u seeing the message "the message shows Unable to instantiate Advisor.",
in the server log?

Does it run in the jetty environment as described in https://jazz.net/library/article/1000 ?

I would make that work before trying to deploy. Other typical issues are the build settings in the plug in editor (e.g. missing classes) missing dependencies etc.

Try to make it work with Jetty first and have a look at the logs. If it runs there see what the build includes and try to create an update site.

There are descriptions on the Wiki for adding buttons etc. for example here: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ContributingAttributePresentationsV2 and https://jazz.net/library/LearnItem.jsp?href=content/docs/web-ui-programming/index.html I have never done what you try, so I can't help here.
