Seems as you are using the wrong update site. You should better install the SVN plugin via the marketplace Help -> Eclipse Marketplace.

Getting error while installing SonarQube plugin in eclipse 4.2.2

I am trying to install the sonar in my eclipse but it can not find the url even though the url is working fine in my browser. If any one knows the solution please let me know, thanks.
To install the plugin you can also go to Help > Eclipse Marketplace... and search for "SonarQube". Check this for more details.
Anyway, the Eclipse SonarQube plugin has been deprecated and SonarLint for Eclipse should be used in place : see http://www.sonarlint.org/eclipse/index.html

CodePro Analytix: Where to find the plugin

I need to set up CodePro Analytix plugin . But the link http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/codepro/latest/3.6 is not opening.
Please help me out. is there any other way to install CodePro Analytix or is there any other tools which does same functionality.
That is an Eclipse update site, you can't open it in a web browser.
Instead you install it from Eclipse by opening 'Help > Install New Software...'. In the 'Work with:' field enter the update site URL for example https://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/codepro/latest/3.7 which still works with Eclipse Oxygen.
Eclipse will then show you what can be installed from the update site.
Note: This code does not appear to have been updated for a while.
You can install it from Eclipse Marketplace: https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/codepro-analytix
But be careful, it's outdated and doesn't work with Juno or higher versions of Eclipse.

Not able to install PMD in Eclipse Kepler

I have installed PMD in Eclipse Kepler using Eclipse market place.
But I am unable to access it after the installation.
When I go to Window → Preferences and search for PMD, I get no results.
Is there any other plugin available for source code cleanup?
Or: What needs to be done to install PMD in Kepler?
Thanks
I found the PMD plugin that installs through Eclipse Marketplace to be harder to use than the standalone one. Install available by an Eclipse update site here.
I've tried all these suggestions and now i have it working in Kepler; here's how to do it:
I made sure my Eclipse Kepler instance was using Java 7--it was.
The link from the eclipse marketplace did not work. It would show a PMD option for the individual projects properties, but there were no rules to select from. Also the main workspace preferences were not showing up.
I had to install it using this update site, as Jeanne Boyarsky mentioned:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pmd/files/pmd-eclipse/update-site/
Restart Kepler.
The PMD option now shows up in the Windows->Preferences->PMD
The PMD project menu now shows up when right clicking on the project.
The install information on the web site for this plugin http://acanda.github.io/eclipse-pmd/getting-started.html says you must open the Properties for a project and look at the PMD tab.
If you've installed the PMD plug-in using the Eclipse market place then you're using eclipse-pmd which requires Eclipse to run on a JVM version 7 or later. If you're running Eclipse on a JVM version 6 or earlier and you're using eclipse-pmd 0.7 or earlier the PMD property page won't be visible.
To solve this problem you have to run Eclipse on a JVM version 7 or later. To change the JVM on which Eclipse runs you have to set the parameter -vm in your eclipse.ini accordingly. The Eclipse Wiki explains how to specify the JVM.
