I just installed Eclipse EE Juno (4.2) and a whole slew of plugins for it. I am now attempting to install the Google plugin (GAE and GWT) and am getting an error when adding the update site through Juno's Install new software window:
Name: Google-Plugin
Location: http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.2
When I try to enter this I get:
Could not find http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.2
I see this question from a few months ago. Although I am having a very similar problem, I think I have a different problem altogether.
When I change the Location to http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7, I get the same error (except with 3.7 appended on the end of the error message instead of 4.2). I definitely have Internet access (how else would I be posting this question?!) so that's not the issue. If this was only working for the 4.2 plugin, I would happily try the "workaround" mentioned in the other post, or even step back down to Eclipse 3.7 (I have to have this plugin!) until 4.2 was working. But the fact that it's not even working for 3.7 tells me that something else is awrye here. Thanks in advance!
Edit:
Just to mess around with things, I have downloaded Indigo (3.7) and immediately attempted to install the Google-Eclipse plugin. I entered the following for my update site:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7
And received a nasty error:
Artifact not found: http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7/compositeContent.xml.
Artifact not found: http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7/compositeContent.xml.
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7/compositeContent.xml
Am I going crazy here?!?! I've installed my fair share of Eclipse plugins and never had this much trouble. Especially from Google. And I know its not my Internet connection or my Eclipse instance because before I attempted to install the Google plugin, I installed Subversive, IvyDE and EclEmma...
It was also broken for me a little while ago, but seems to be working now. Maybe the site was down for a bit?
You can try installing the plugin from archive as described in the link:
https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip
Basically what you are doing is, you download the plugin as a zip(archive) and browse this archive instead of update site, during the plugin installation.

I'm trying to install the PMD source code analyser plugin for Eclipse. It's available through Eclipse Market Place, but I'm getting following problem in the phase of installation :
Why am I getting this problem ?
EDIT
I do not have this menu even though I have added the ruleset configuration file
I'm the creator of eclipse-pmd, the plugin you are trying to install. I tried to install it myself just now and it worked without any problems. So I can only guess what could be the problem in your case:
The repository was temporarily not available
Simply try again.
You are using a (very) old version of Eclipse
The plugin requires Eclipse Indigo (3.7) or later. I tried to install eclipse-pmd with Indigo and Luna just now and it worked both times.
Run Eclipse with Java 7
You need to run Eclipse with a JRE 7 or later. There have been problems during the installation with people using an older JRE in the past. However they could finish the installation but Eclipse silently refused to load the plugin (this has been fixed a few versions ago though).
Proxy configuration
Although unlikely as you came this far, please open the proxy configuration in Eclipse and check if the settings are correct and the domain is accessible.
If you tried everything I suggested above and are still not able to install the plugin, please head over to the project's Github page and open an issue.
I try to develop an App Engine project for Android, but I have bugs again and again. I tried to do 3 tutorials in the last days, but got none of them working...
Tutorial 1: Create App Engine Connected Android Project
When creating an App Engine Connected Android Project, I get the following error in the MainActivity: RegisterActivity cannot be resolved to a type.
When i googled this error, I saw that many people had the same error 1 year ago, but nobody could give a good solution yet. Has google been able to solve this bug yet?..
Tutorial 2:
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/endpoints/getstarted/backend/create_project
This Tutorial uses Maven. I tried to generate the project with following command, because I am not able to do that with the interactive mode:
"mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.google.appengine.samples.helloendpoints -DartifactId=helloendpoints -DarchetypeArtifactId=appengine-skeleton-archetype -DinteractiveMode=false".
It fails and tells me that the archetype doesn't exist.. (appengine-skeleton-archetype)
Well, I don't know what to do here...
Tutorial 3:
https://cloud.google.com/developers/articles/how-to-build-mobile-app-with-app-engine-backend-tutorial
At "Modify the Client Application", when I replace the Code from MainActivity01, I get errors like "CloudEndpointUtils cannot be resolved", because in the MobileAssistant src folder the class CloudEndpointUtils was not created!
Conclusion: Seems like most of the documentation is not up-to-date and the google plugins are pretty bugged... Maybe somebody knows how to solve those errors?
Is there any Tutorial, which is up-to-date and, which shows how to build an easy application for android with appengine and which WORKS? I would like to complete just ANY tutorial and have a stable basic project...
The documentation does work, so the problems may lie in the configuration of your tools. You show considerable persistence, so consider switching to a new installation of tools (Eclipse or whatever). Also prove your tools by building and deploying simpler AppEngine-only projects first before aiming higher for Android-to-AppEngine projects.
Well, actually I had reinstalled eclipse several times because of those and other bugs.. But I think I had installed it correctly with the latest plugins...
Now, to be sure that I install it definitely correctly, I have completely formatted my computer (reinstall windows 8.1)
So, in order to be sure that I do everything absolute correctly, which of the following possible ways to install the whole eclipse setup is better?
Install eclipse kepler WITHOUT ADT. Then install all the ADT-plugins and google-plugins, and then install everything necessary from android SDK manager.
Install ADT Bundle (comes with eclipse juno atm and is version 22.3). Then install google-plugins and update ADT-plugins from 22.3 to 22.6.1. Then install everything necessary from android SDK manager.
I know this shouldn't make a real difference, but I have done that often enough and I still had errors. This time I want to be sure to do it completely right!
I am trying to download the Android SDK on NetBeans 7.4 on a Mac via the NB Android plugin. After I installation is completed, NetBeans warns me that several modules needed were not read and could not be installed, so when I try to activate the plugin to import the SDK, it gives me an error: Activation Failed: Not all requested modules could be enabled.
Could somebody please help me with this tell me what is wrong? The three links below (especially the last one) will help you guys for further reference of the problem Thank you very much.
https://netbeans.org/index.html
http://nbandroid.org/wiki/index.php/Installation#How_to_install
https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200215
The information you have provided is incomplete. Which modules? Bug report can be a similar problem or not. It is possible that your installation is broken - try to delete NBAndroid modules and download/install them again. Or do similar thing with NetBeans.
EDIT: I fixed it by not installing the NDK Development stuff. I don't know what it is, or what it does, but it fixed my problem.
I'm on Windows 64-bit, using Eclipse Helios, and trying to install the latest Android SDK. So far, I've been able to download and install the SDK Manager and successfully ran through its stuff.
The trouble comes in when I try to install inside of Eclipse (Help -> Install New Software). Every time I try to install using either the URL address (http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html) or the .zip file I get this error:
An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=SDKProfile, > phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
Comparison method violates its general contract!
Comparison method violates its general contract!
The internet doesn't seem to have any answers that I can find. Thanks!
Late to the conversation...
But I have found this error when trying to install packages, not at all associated with Android, from older Eclipse versions, which by now includes Helios. It actually took me a while to figure out all those Eclipse project names are actually versions. At the time of this writing, Eclipse Kepler is the latest, once I upgraded (pretty much a fresh install) to Kepler and tried again to install the packages, everything worked fine.
Hopes this is helpful to somebody.
Run eclipse as administrator and install Android SDK.
You must use https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ for SDK installation.
See Install ADT Plugin
By the way, which version of java are you using? I reckon the error is possibly an eclipse bug, related to Java 1.7.
Try JRE 1.6 and see if it works!
You need the following tool for starting the android devolopment
(1) Eclipse ide
(2) ADT for eclipse (android plugin for eclipse)
(3) Android SDK
You get a brief idea about each of these steps from the following link

We have just released an update fixing this bug (i.e. broken support for Helios), and a few others. Invoke Eclipse's plugin update feature, or just tell Eclipse to install the plugin from http://dl.msopentech.com/eclipse.

Yesterday there were announcements about several new features in the Windows Azure Spring Release. One of those announcements mentioned an updated Eclipse plugin, as well as sdk refreshes. Based on the error message, you may have installed updated bits for Eclipse that could be out of sync with something else that hasn't been updated yet.
During the Meet Windows Azure event today, everything is being formally announced via webcast.
I believe those are random errors which just happen if there some network error. You may find similar problems and while installing the plugin however trying again mostly resolve such problem.
I just gave a quick try as setting the New Install point as "http://dl.msopentech.com/eclipse" in Eclipse as below:
And then downloaded the selected components:
The download and install went fine without any hitch so please try again and you should not have any problem as you just experiences a random trouble.
Actually, it is a bug in the plugin's June 2012 release that it doesn't install on Helios. An update with a fix for this issue is coming up later in July.
