Unable to read repository at http download eclipse org releases indigo

Question

I was trying to add the PDT  Indigo - http   download eclipse org releases indigo Unable to read repository at http   download eclipse org releases indigo  Unable to read repository at http   download eclipse org releases indigo  http   download eclipse org releases indigo is not a valid repository location  So what s the correct url   I went and looked lots of places  Can someone point me to the exact link   Edit   Problem once you go to http   download eclipse org releases indigo   you will see the below error  So I guess its moved somewhere   This software repository URL  http   download eclipse org releases indigo    provides access to the software repository for the Eclipse indigo release  Until its released in June 2011  it will contain milestone builds  The repository site URL is typically pre-populated in the list of software repositories when you install the Eclipse Platform or SDK  For more information about installing or updating software  see the Eclipse Platform Help  There is also a collection of handy  downloadable all-in-one zip files available for many interests and platforms  Many people find these all-in-one packages the easiest way to get started

Check if you are able to connect to eclipse market place url  http   marketplace eclipse org   from browser  If its working then the issue is because of proxy server using in your network  We have to update eclipse with proxy server details used in our network   Go to  - Windows-  Preference -  General -  Network Connections     And edit HTTP  with proxy details     Click OK  Done

That URL works fine  The message you report is normal when you look at it in a browser  My copy of Eclipse has no problems talking to it  If yours does  I suspect a proxy configuration error in your copy of eclipse

I spent whole my day figuring out this and found the following  And it works great now   This is basically an issue with your gateway or proxy  If you are under proxy network  Please go to the network settings and set the proxy server settings server  port   user name and password   If you are under direct gateway network  your firewall may be blocking the http get request from your eclipse

Can you connect to internet at all through Eclipse    Open the internal webbrowser  In Eclipse  Window -  show view -  Other -  General  Internal web browser   Look up any normal adress  is it working    Can you connect to another update site  Try for example Eclipse Emma  http   update eclemma org  Do you see anything there    What are your proxy preferences  Go to Window -  preferences -  General  Network connections   The active provider       Specifies the settings profile to be used when opening connections  Choosing the Direct provider causes all the connections to be opened without the use of a proxy server  Selecting Manual causes settings defined in Eclipse to be used  On some platforms there is also a Native provider available  selecting this one causes settings that were discovered in the OS to be used    If internet is working fine outside of Eclipse  try changing to Native  After that  try Direct    I have encountered problems where an update site would not load  then I had to remove it and add it again  This forces Eclipse to reread the contents of the site even if it has a cached copy  So  if you still get no connection to the indigo update site  but everything else is working  try that  Go to Window -  Preferences -  Install update  Available Software sites  Then remove and add the indigo site  Just remember to copy the adress so you can add it again    As suggested in a comment below by  lostiniceland  this is a simpler way to achieve the above    Goto Window -  Preferences -  Install Update -  Available Software Sites    select the entry and click the  Reload  button to the right  This is sometimes also helpful when you have a local updatesite for testing custom plugins

This is the correct URL  Chances are Eclipse cannot read it properly because of the Internet connexion    Are you using a proxy to get Internet access  If this is the case you need to notify Eclipse via the  Preferences General Network Connections  menu

Kudos to  Fredrik above   His answer didn t work for me  but lead me to the resolution of my issue   In  Window   Preferences   Install Update   Available Software Sites    The location that I was attempting to install from the  Marketplace  was getting inserted with an https    URL   Editing this to http    allowed me to then use  Help  Install New Software      to select the repository from the drop down  Work with   combobox instead of having the https    one automatically inserted and used

What worked for me   Since yesterday  I have been trying to install the Eclipse plugin -  Remote System Explorer  from the Eclipse marketplace on a freshly downloaded Eclipse 4 8 as shown below     and everytime I was getting this error      Unable to read repository at http   download eclipse org releases kepler     Unable to read repository at http   download eclipse org releases kepler 201306260900 content jar    download eclipse org 80 failed to respond   which brought me to this SO post   I tried a few solutions mentioned here in the different answers like this one and this one and this one  but none of them worked  I just gave up almost  thinking that either the corporate network here is somehow blocking the specific download requests or the 4 8 version of Eclipse is buggy   Discovery   I could not reload all the paths under  Window  - gt   Preferences  - gt   Install Update  - gt   Available Software Sites      Preconditions    What did work for me from the beginning was    I could open google com from the internal web browser of eclipse and  some of the update paths  I could reload even   As was mentioned as a possible solution or test  in some of the answers here  like this one      Finally  this answer put me on the right track - for my specific case  at least  Just my step was to do the exact opposite of what that answer was doing   Solution   I had to change all the http    paths to https    and suddenly it started to work  I don t know who - either IE Edge on Windows 10 or the Windows 10 firewall or the company firewall is blocking HTTP communications  But with HTTPS  I can finally install plugins from the Marketplace     HTTPS reload works    I must say  what is strange is that not all the paths required https  Except a few  the rest seemed to have had no problem working with HTTP  But I anyways changed all to HTTPS  just for good measure      Then reload all the repositories one by one  Press  Apply and close   Then check for updates  Eclipse will update itself successfully now   Restart after update  Finally you can install whichever Plugin you would like to from the Eclipse Marketplace    Note  In case during the update  this same error pops up again  then see in the repositories that any new paths added by eclipse during the update  are also HTTPS and not HTTP

I was also unable to read the repository  Even after the disabling most of the entries under Available Software Sites things were still not working   I had no proxy to worry about and even disabling the firewall  which I do not recommended  as a last resort did not help   Viewing the error log  from the dialog box which Eclipse displayed  there was mention of a cache directory under  eclipse in my home directory  I deleted the two cache directories I found and Eclipse was working again   For my setup the two directories I deleted were    eclipse org eclipse platform 4 4 2 119745494 macosx cocoa x86 64 p2 org eclipse equinox p2 core cache   eclipse org eclipse platform 4 4 2 119745494 macosx cocoa x86 64 p2 org eclipse equinox p2 repository cache  NB  My setup is Eclipse Luna 4 4 2 running on Mac OS X Yosemite 10 10 3

I was having this problem and it turned out to be our firewall  It has some very general functions for blocking ActiveX  Java  etc   and the Java functionality was blocking the jar downloads as Eclipse attempted them   The firewall was returning an html page explaining that the content was blocked  which of course went unseen  Thank goodness for Wireshark
