Can not add plug in for MAven in Eclipse Helios - java

I want to add plug in for Maven in Eclipse Helios (64 bit) on SLES 11. When I open Help -> Install new software and try to add url "http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/release". It gives me following error
"unable to connect to repository http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/release"
I have also tried to uncheck the option "Contact all update sites " and checking the proxy settings from General -> preferences -> Network Connection as well and the proxy settings seems ok.
Any idea whats going wrong ? In eclipse, I am not able to open Eclipse MArketplace and url in internal browser of eclipse. It seems that eclipse is not connecting to internet at all.

It seems you simply have the wrong link. The correct one is http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases (missed the s) (Source: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Maven_Integration). Also, unless you are forced to use Helios, consider updating Eclipse to the Kepler release.

Try to Configure your eclipse.ini with argument -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
Starting eclipse with this arg works for me

How to configure proxy settings in NetBeans 8.2 RC?

I have an issue with NetBeans, I have been trying to install some plugins to the IDE but it show me an error:
Unable to connect to the Plugin Portal because of Connection reset
It says I have to check my proxy settings, but I am not using any proxy. I already put this: -J-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack = true in the netbeans.conf file, but it doesn't work.
Any help is appreciated.
You can find the proxy settings under Tools > Options > General.
But you can consider downloading a newer version of NetBeans, since version 8.2 does not seems maintained anymore (it's pre-Apache).
The latest version as today is 12.4 and you can download at:

Cannot find "New Web Application Project" option in Eclipse Luna with GWT

I followed these instructions to install Google Web Toolkit in a freshly installed Eclipse (Luna). I have Java version 8 on Mac OS 10.7.5. I restarted Eclipse twice for good measure. I can see the following installed software:
I now want to start making a GWT project as outlined here. However I can't find any "New Web Application Project button" or icon. Here's a screenshot of the dropdown menu under "New".
I found a previous recommendation to install from a download but this option doesn't seem to be available for Luna.
I also found these FAQs which say where the SDK is installed; indeed, I have a /Applications/eclipse/plugins/com.google.gwt.eclipse.sdkbundle_2.6.0 directory.
How can I start a new GWT project? Thanks!
File -> New -> Other -> Google -> Web Application Project
Restart your Eclipse from command prompt with -clean option as
./eclipse -clean
This should make all the GWT related views available.
Setting -clean option will remove all the OSGi and Eclipse Runtime cache data.
This will also clean the caches used to store bundle dependency resolution and eclipse extension registry data.

Adding PyDev eclipse pulgin manually

I am on an assignment to work with Jython. I tried to install PyDev plugin to my eclipse ( Kepler service release 2 on Linux 64 bit machine )manually (dev machine doesnot have internet connection). But when I do manually by downloading .zip file and adding it as following:
Help-> Install new software ->Add -> Archieve:
but I am getting an error.
No repository found at file:/home/lhananth/eclipse/dropins/PyDev%203.6.0.zip!.
No repository found at file:/home/lhananth/eclipse/dropins/PyDev%203.6.0.zip!.
I tried to manually add the unziped folders to dropin folder of eclipse but its not working as well- Python is not appearing as a selection in the Eclipse, Window, Preferences.
Can some body help me out ? (I tried all the replies for similar posts available in stack overflow)
Maybe you're just missing some slashes after file:
file:///home/lhananth/eclipse/dropins/PyDev%203.6.0.zip
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme
I solved this problem:
There was no issue with either eclipse or with PyDev. It was about the Java version I had. PyDev works with JDK 7, but I had JDK 6. Due to this even after I copied the PyDev to droppins, nothing was shown up in Preferences. Once I used JDK 7, its working.
Thanks,

Problems with installing TFS plugin for Eclipse

I wanted to install TFS plugin for Eclipse (Juno).
I pressed Help->Install New Software. Then, "Add" -> entered the address which written at Microsoft web-site (http://dl.microsoft.com/eclipse/tfs/).
Eclipse tried to do load it for some time, then it gave me an error:
"Communication with repository at http://dl.microsoft.com/eclipse/tfs/ failed.
Read timed out"
After that mistake I updated all the plugins and Eclipse, restarted Eclipse and operating system (Windows 7). The error was the same all the time.
What can be wrong?
I have found out that instead of the way described above, it can be downloaded directly from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30661
Then, it can be installed as "From Archive"
maybe you are using (or not! using) a proxy connection
adjust your "Preferences - General - Network Connection" settings

How to install Web Platform Tools in Eclipse?

Which URL do I install this and any pre-reqs from, and how can I install them? Been struggling with this for the last 1 hour with no luck.
new 2013 answer: it seems to depend on what version of eclipse you're running.
click "help" -> "about eclipse sdk" to find the version (e.g. 4.2.2).
optionally, from the version number you can know the codename (e.g. Juno) from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eclipse_%28software%29#Releases
go here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_FAQ#How_do_I_install_WTP.3F
right click on the correct WTP link copy the link address (e.g. WTP 3.4) (they should be listed by version and codename)
now in eclipse, click "help" -> "install new software..." and paste the link location in the "work with" field (e.g. "http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/juno/").
choose "Web Tools Platform (WTP #.#.#)" and click next and install everything.
restart eclipse, close all open files and re-open them for web tools to start working.
If you can use a clean install of Eclipse. Download Enterprise Java version. WTP its included in this Eclipse distribution. When you need updates for WTP, you can get updates via "Eclipse Software Updates" tool.
Regards
You can download WTP from Eclipse Help Menu. Following is the link to download the WTP into Eclipse.
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates
Install Software Menu in Eclipse
Following image show the Install New Software Window.
Install New Software window
I try my best to stick to Pulse, which handles a lot of the configuration of Eclipse plugins for you. I'm not associated with them by the way, but am very happy with the service. WTP is one of the features they provide.
