I'm running Eclipse's Helios EE bundle on Linux to which I added the subversive plugins, the m2e Maven integration and the Mylin connector for Trac. For the last couple of weeks I've been trying to install updates, and every time I get back a message like
No repository found containing <something or other>
The latest one was
An error occurred while collecting items to be installed

What does it all mean and how do I fix that? If Eclipse has been able to contact the repositories to check for new files, why isn't it able to download those files from those some repositories? Or does the error message mean something entirely different?
This question is related to
eclipse
eclipse-plugin
I am using lubuntu( like ubuntu) and I found that when I install ccs, I used sudo cmd, so some file can't be changed by another user, that's why the problem comes up. So in the place I installed ccs, I run the cmd
sudo chown -R username:groupname *
with username
and groupname
are the same as my computer account.
Simple!!!!!!!!
Right click on eclipse folder and go to properties. Uncheck checkbox "read only" if checked. apply changes.click oK.
after go to Help>Install new software>Uncheck “Contact all update sites during install to find required software”.
As Mauro said: "you have to remove and re-add the Eclipse Project Update site, so that its metadata are re-calculated." - works as workaround
Me helped the following solution:
It was taken from this link Devon Hillard's Digital Sanctuary
Probably, my experience with this bug will be needed for someone (including myself too... :) ).
So, I could to add one thing to the mentioned here answers. I mean playing with the trailing "/" symbol in the options, because playing with it does not work in my case. But when I have deleted the .eclipse/org.eclipse.oomph.p2/cache
and the .eclipse/org.eclipse.oomph.setup/cache
dirs (names are given relatively to the home dir) and then have done the well known procedure with "/", it started to work.
Updating from Kepler SR1 to Kepler SR2 solved this for me. I've just installed over the existing installation, so none of my settings were harmed.
Win8.1, 64bit
Tried to install Google App Engine SDK, and received similar errors.
None of the answers worked for me.
I noticed download hangs around 999K, while the full download was about 100MB.
Somehow after trying for the sixth or seventh time, the problem fixed itself :)
So if none of these work for you.. try at least several times, maybe server is overloaded :)
Me helped the following solution:
Go to Help->Software Updates, then select the Available Software tab and click the Manage Sites button Use the Export button to export the sites to a bookmarks.xml file Open the bookmarks.xml file in your favorite text editor, and add a trailing “/” to any of the site urls which are missing the “/” or remove on the end. Save the changes. Back in the Manage Sites window within Eclipse, select all of the sites and click the Remove button Now, click Import and load in the edited bookmarks.xml file
For Oxygen, see Eclipse Community Forums:
"In my case Oxygen had update URL for Buidship as: http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e46/releases/2.x
Note: that e46 is Neon version per https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/blob/master/docs/user/Installation.md
once I updated URL to Oxygen version (e47): http://download.eclipse.org/buildship/updates/e47/releases/2.x
update was successful"
I had a few repository URL's saved with HTTPS. I changed them to HTTP and the error was gone.
You can adapt the URL's in the settings: Preferences -> Install/Update -> Available Software Sites
I've had the same issue since mid 2018. Performing a search, this issue has been reported since 2011. I'm surprised workarounds are proposed for this. Unfortunately they havent't worked for me, currently the only fix seems to completely reinstall Eclipse. As the most upvoted suggestion here, many of the suggestions are contradicting, suggesting trial-error guesses.
Besides these workarounds, IMHO this requires a fix. We're in 2019 now, surely there is a way to fix this recurring issue? How can there not be a simple fix i.e. if repo URL not found: skip and continue with next URL / update (without aborting as critical error and preventing any other update)?
Thanks to Fredrik for pointing to the original bug in Eclipse. A comment by Richard Shu there describes several available solutions:
As Mauro said: "you have to remove and re-add the Eclipse Project Update site, so that its metadata are re-calculated." - works as workaround
Another workaround I found, is to edit the pre-defined URL link by adding just a trailing “/” to the update site URL.
The third workaround I discoverd accidentaly is to do nothing, but to uncheck the 'Contact all update sites during install to find required software' before checking the URL link.
Option #2 worked for me. I went to Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites
, then for each enabled site I added a /
to the end of the URL (if it wasn't there already), then clicked Reload
.
I just got it when installing Maven support in Eclipse for Java EE developers Helios. Solution was just to run Eclipse as Administrator, update went fine after
Go to Help → Install new software → Here uncheck “Contact all update sites during install to find required software”
Eclipse will prompt that the content isn't authorized or something like that. just ignore and continue. then everything will be OK.
At least this trick resolved my problems similar like this:

In my case, the only solution was a manual installation (the plugin's page explained how to install it from the Eclipse's Help menu and, as an alternative, were to unpack the zip manually).
Install the latest STS, export its site list and import it into yours.
On Juno (Build id: 20130225-0426), exporting update sites from 'Available software Sites", fixing the trailing "/" in the exported xml as described above, removing all sites and importing the fixed xml worked for me. Described here
What you most likely has encountered is a bug in Eclipse.
Luckily the solution is simple enough, remove the update site and install it again.
For Eclipse Neon I had the mentioned error for Mylyn.
To make it work I had to enable the Mylyn Sites that were disabled in the Available Software Sites preference pane. They were unnamed (empty name) but recognizable by their Location column.
After saving, updating Mylyn and restarting eclipse, the Available Software Sites looked like this:
I am trying to make an update for Spring STS 3.6.3 to the version 3.6.4 in Eclipse Luna (4.4.1) and I tried the following solution and it worked for me:
2019 Eclipse/CCS
After trying many of the above techniques described here I noticed this post by Edwin landwealths
The long and short of it is to add the infamous tail "/" and ALSO change "http" to "https". This fixed my issue immediately.
I had the same problem on windows 10. My eclipse version was installed from an exe, downloaded from eclipse site.
What solved for me was to use the zip version instead: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/eclipse-packages/
In my case I was selecting
Work with: --All Available Sites--
Choosing instead only one specific site from the list did the trick (Neon.2 64bit on Windows)
I had the same problem but while doing updates. I solved it by
I got this error (September 2020) during an automatic upgrade.
The solution was to add:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2020-09
to the list of Available Software Sites.
I also disabled:
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.15
and several more with release numbers earlier than 4.15, but I don't think that was the important part.
For me I had Spring IDE installed on Eclipse Oxygen. During check for updates it would find updates, then it would fail with the above error.
I then went to the Eclipse Marketplace, clicked on Installed tab and noticed Spring did not come up (it was there before and is currently installed).
Then I searched for Spring IDE (Tools) clicked install, then it notified that some packages were already installed and just needed to be updated.
After completing the install of Spring Tools and restarting, I was able to check for updates and complete the normal software updates.
In the end, something does have to be removed. I would like to add to the other answers: be sure to check for conflicts. For me, the EMF (Eclipse Modeling Framework) had somehow gotten out of hand as I had multiple versions listed in windows/preferences. Removing the conflict allowed for my updates to proceed as normal.
The updates that Eclipse has found have dependencies that need to be downloaded during the installation but which cannot currently be found. This may be a temporary network problem or some repo server being down (if you're lucky). But unfortunately, sometimes this simply means that the dependencies are not contained in the repositories that Eclipse is trying to download them from, at least that is what i have encountered every now and then (not annoyingly often though).
So either the failure is temporary and you should try again or you are out of luck and may have to use a manual installation procedure (download and unpack in plugins folder).
Maybe you can increase your success rate by adding the repositories that supposedly contain the artifacts in the 'Available Software Sites' dialogue.
I'm not 100% sure of that though. In fact, I would like to find a 'perfect' answer to this question myself.
What usually works quite well is installing plugins via the Eclipse Marketplace.
Oh and sometimes this helps: Uncheck some options (like OSGI in your case).
In my case I was getting the above mentioned errors only for a particular update site and eclipse-java-mars-R. Other update sites were allowing me to update, and, using other versions of Eclipse I was able to install from the update site which was causing problems for my Java Mars R Eclipse.
Deleting the cache folder in /Users/myname/.eclipse/org.eclipse.oomph.p2 solved the problem (my coworker, not me, came up with this solution)
I had the same issue with the bellow error:
session context was:(profile=DefaultProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
No repository found containing: osgi.bundle,oracle.eclipse.tools.rest.lib,8.4.0.201510191754
And the solution is to disable Oracle Enterprise Pack for eclipse
The workaround I found, is to edit the pre-defined URL link by adding just a trailing “/” to the update site URL.
Option #2 worked for me. I went to Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites, then for each enabled site I added a / to the end of the URL (if it wasn't there already), then clicked Reload.
Some of the above solutions worked to resolve some of my errors... it seems that after a while update connections just get corrupted and there is no silver-bullet. Managing updates through the marketplace (Help > Marketplace > 'show updates') allowed me to narrow down the packages with failed dependencies.
Here's what I tried (taken from posts above):
I was still left with some Mylyn wikitext errors despite trying the suggestions here
Eclipse IDE for JavaScript and Web Developers
Version: 2019-09 R (4.13.0) Build id: 20190917-1200
None of the other answers worked for me (Windows 10, Eclipse Neon). Running Eclipse as Administrator fixed it.
Eclipse Kepler (at least) allows to specifically reload a software site in the Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites dialog.
It is a cleaner / simpler solution than the workaround explained above (add trailing slash) and it worked for me...
Note: a link to this dialog is also available in the Install New Software dialog.
