Unable to download the groovy eclipse plugin - eclipse

Unfortunately I am not able to download the groovy eclipse plugin via the URL http://dist.springsource.org/snapshot/GRECLIPSE/e4.5/. The download will be executed without error but the file downloaded has always 0 Bytes as result. The name of the file downloaded is e4 or very cryptic. It occurrs on different accounts, with different providers and different PCs.

That is an eclipse update site. I guess you are trying to put that URL in the browser. They are not supposed to be used in the browser, but rather through eclipse.
Open eclipse, go to Help > Install New Software... and paste that URL in the Work with: field.
More info update sites can be found here.

Has problem in Installing PyDev into Eclipse

I tried to install PyDev into Eclipse, when I tried to install new software with this site : http://www.pydev.org/update, it complains unable to read repository. I tried to go the page
http://www.pydev.org/update and click the links on this page, it returns 404 page error. Does anybody why? How can I install PyDev into Eclipse?
Thanks,
Josephine
https://github.com/fabioz/Pydev/releases/download/pydev_8_3_0/ is where it links today, and that link goes to a 404 error page...
I get the same issue - fails trying in install via Marketplace. The links all 404 error. In the PyDev installation troubleshooting (https://www.pydev.org/manual_101_install.html), it mentions:
Unable to load repository
While most times things work as explained, some users may have messages such as:
Unable to load the repository http://pydev.org/updates
Unknown Host: http://pydev.org/updates/content.xml
This means there's some issue accessing the update site in your current connection.
In that case, you can try using a direct URL for the download (all the http://pydev.org/updates/ URLs are actually redirects to the final location). Currently, those redirects point to links on http://bintray.com, so, you can visit the related update site page (such as http://pydev.org/updates) in a browser and see to where it's being redirected (you may want to try that direct link with http or https to see if it makes a difference in your use case).
If they ARE redirecting to Bintray, it has been sunset according to JFrog: https://bintray.com
That said, I was able to install PyDev manually using the ZIP on SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pydev/files/pydev/
Download and extract the zip, then copy the entire folder to the Eclipse 'dropins' dir (not 'plugins'). On Mac OS, open the Eclipse.app package contents, then copy the unzipped dir, and you should end up with:
Eclipse.app
Contents
Eclipse
dropins
PyDev
features
plugins
Then launch Eclipse. Rather than using Finder, I launched it from Terminal w/ the -clean option to try to refresh the installed plugins:
/Applications/Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/eclipse -clean
I didn't see "PyDev" in the toolbar like I'm used to, but PyDev is in Eclipse Preferences, so I set PyDev > Debug > Remote debugger server activation="Start when the plugins is started", and relaunched Eclipse. So far, so good...

How to plugin Groovy editor and compiler offline in eclipse?

I am using company proxy and not able to plugin from marketplace?
If you go to the github page, on the right are releases. If you select the release that you want, at the very bottom of that release's page is a list of zipped updatesites, where you can download it from, ex. https://github.com/groovy/groovy-eclipse/wiki/4.0.0-Release-Notes You can then unzip it and install it manually.
Additionally, if you want Eclipse to work through your proxy, add the following in your eclipse.ini file:
-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.excludeContributors=org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.httpclient4
-Dhttp.proxyHost=your_proxyservername.your.org
-Dhttp.proxyPort=your_proxy_port
-Dhttp.proxyUser=your_username
-Dhttp.proxyPassword=your_password
-Dhttps.proxyHost=your_proxyservername.your.org
-Dhttps.proxyPort=your_proxy_port
-Dhttps.proxyUser=your_username
-Dhttps.proxyPassword=your_password

Upload files from Eclipse Juno?

I am building a new workspace in Ubuntu 12.10 with Eclipse Juno. I have configured my project, imported my files, established a local Git repo and synced it to a remote on GitHub. However, all my efforts to be able to upload files (php, html, css, and other website files) to servers have failed.
I have both Remote System Explorer (RSE) and Aptana Studio 3. Though I have successfully established connections both to localhost for testing and to my live webserver, none of my attempts to upload have succeeded.
Ideally, when I save any file in Eclipse, it would automatically be copied to my /var/www for my localhost test server. I have researched several sync options without success.
Additionally, I want to be able to use Ctrl+Shift+U or similar to upload the current file to my public server.
I have spent much of the last two days reading and researching, but have found minimal documentation, and blog entries are for obsolete versions.
I have no Deploy menu item, the Aptana Publish menu item is disabled, and if I use Eclipse's Export command from the right-click menu, and choose my localhost connection, I get error "Unable to use connection." This, despite being able to browse the contents in RSE's pane. When I try to export to the public server, the error is "This operation will remove previous team provider settings that were set for MyProjectName. Are you sure you want to do this?"
I am making the change to Eclipse for a more efficient workflow but so far it has cost me many days of frustration and I still can't upload a simple .html file?!
Ok, as I understand it, you want to copy a file at save and upload it via FTP, yes?
You should look into Ant. You can configure Eclipse to run an Ant script when you save or build a project.
How to copy files with Ant
Ants FTP task
How to get ant to run when building a project
this post might be helpful for you, if you use Eclipse RSE: How to synchronize files over FTP with Eclipse RSE?
Moreover they mention there some problems with jdk7 (for the older eclipse version). Check that too.
For the actions you to be performed automatically/on keypress, well for that I didn't find any quick solution.

Unable to read repository at http://beust.com/eclipse

Eclipse for Testers
Version: Indigo Release
Build id: 20110615-0604
I try to install TestNG but below error appeared.
"
Unable to read repository at http://beust.com/eclipse.
http://beust.com/eclipse is not a valid repository location.
"
Kindly Resolve the problems
This is because http://beust.com/eclipse is redirecting to http://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/ and Eclipse software seems to be not handling this URL redirection as intended.
If you add the URL as http://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse-release/ then this will work OK.
I added one "/" to the end: http://beust.com/eclipse/, then it works. If you use RAD 8+, navigate from Windows -> Preferences -> General -> Network Connections, make sure you have correct settings here, for me I have to change the setting from Native to Direct.
Disconnect from your company's intranet network and connect to your network (Like mobile hotspot or home wifi). Try install then. Worked for me.
You can try below link
https://www.techbeamers.com/install-testng-in-eclipse-ide/
The URL for downloading the Zip file is for version 6.11 in the above link. If you need a higher version try
http://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse-release/zipped/
It doesn't work for Eclipse Neon at all. You can try to download the zipped archive file and add the 'update site' as an archive file from the file system.
> Install TestNG In Eclipse IDE Via Offline Jar Files
Download the latest TestNG Jar files from the link TestNg Jars
Go to the eclipse installation directory and look for the “dropins” folder there.
Create a folder inside the dropins folder and name it as “testng-eclipse-6.11“
Extract the “site_assembly.zip” file and copy its contents to the newly created “testng-eclipse-6.11” directory.
Restart Eclipse
source: techbeamers
Make sure you don't have a space character before or after the entry in the "Work with" field as you try to add the software site.
Other than that, the software site is perfectly valid. Perhaps the server was just down at the time you tried it. You could also check to verify that there is no proxy or firewall filtering on your end. Try pinging the site or accessing it in some other way. If Eclipse can't talk to the site, it has no way of knowing that it is valid.
Make sure you are connected to the Internet
Key in the exact URL - http://beust.com/eclipse/
I tried Network connections -> Change native to manual -> Selected Socks and clicked on clear then I tried to install the TestNG plugin from install new software and add the URL. while installing eclipse was asking to sign in but I clicked on ok every time and installation were completed.
I tried many steps editing the eclipse.ini file etc and changing native to direct. None of those steps worked for me
Try below steps:-
Ping the URL in CMD to check if there are any loss of data packets.
So you will get clarity it is problem with your network or not ,try with different network.
Many times your antivirus or firewall block the incoming network so disable them temporarily and try.
To resolve this issue.
GO to Eclipse installed folder
Edit eclipse.ini file and insert
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
at the end of that file. Restart the eclipse.
The given link is https://beust.com/eclipse
remove "s" from https & try with link http://beust.com/eclipse
I was using "http://beust.com/eclipse/" but unable to download TestNG jar it is showing no contents.
If you will use this URL "http://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse-release/" then you will able to download, it worked for me.
Just install TestNG from below URL and no such issue will occur at latest eclipse releases:
http://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse-release/
The above link didn't work it means you need a higher version of TestNG for the eclipse. Before that check TestNG is installed or not in order to know that press CTRL+N in the wizard you can see TestNG class file name.
If it is not displaying then try installing TestNG In Eclipse IDE Via Offline Jar Files:
1)Download the latest TestNG Jar files from the link TestNg Jars ("https://github.com/cbeust/testng-eclipse")
2)Download TestNG 6.11, Clicking on the link will download the “site_assembly.zip” file for the TestNG version 6.11. This file contains two folders named as “features” and “plugins“.Go to the eclipse installation directory and look for the “dropins” folder there.
3)Create a folder inside the dropins folder and name it as “testng-eclipse-6.11“
4)Extract the “site_assembly.zip” file and copy its contents to the newly created “testng-eclipse-6.11” directory.
5)Restart Eclipse
OR
Go click on Help> Install new Software> Under Available software> Work with textbox paste this "2019-06 - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2019-06" and then click on ADD. You will now see the files like TestNG and a lot many others. Select TestNG click on Next> Next> Accept the condtions> Finish. It will restart the eclipse. Inorder to know the installation is successful Press CTRL+N.

Completely lost with Blackberry JDE for Eclipse

I'm serious. I installed the Blackberry web developer thing for eclipse (being stupid, and not seeing the 'web' part). Then, when I realized my mistake, I went and got the JDE for Eclipse. I went through the install process....open up Eclipse...and I'm lost. I don't know how to run code...or the simulator, or anything.
All the tutorials I'm finding are referencing an older "beta" version of the Eclipse plugin, which apparently had a "Blackberry" menu option. I'm not seeing that.
I found some sample code, which gives the helpful instructions:
"1. Extract HelloWorld_incomplete.zip
2. In the IDE, open the helloworld.jdw workspace
3. Open the helloworld.java source file.
"
...I've never seen a .jdw file before. If I try opening it in Eclipse, I get a not-very-useful text file. Since they say it's a workspace, I try the "Switch Workspace" option in Eclipse, which lets me pick a folder, rather than a file.
I'm pretty sure "Import Project" isn't right, either.
So, I figure I'll deal with that later, so I open up the source code (a standard .java file, with a main, etc). I try running it, but it asks for an Ant build file.
I can run standard Java files just fine (that is, I know Java is in my path).
I don't know if maybe I don't have the Blackberry part right...or if it's on the eclipse side where I'm failing.
Does anyone have any ideas?
-Jenny
Edit: Just to be sure, I tried downloading the plugin through eclipse with their provided link (http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseUpdate), but eclipse says that it got a .jar file when it was expecting a .zip file, and so it errored. Can you even unzip a jar file (like Eclipse is trying to do?)
It sounds like you have the wrong package.
I installed it yesterday from the "Download Now" button at http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/javaappdev/javaeclipseplug.jsp
and it had both the menu option and the Blackberry project type.
It should have an installer if you get the correct one. I would post a direct link, but RIM likes to ask for your info before allowing the download.
Try installing it to a different directory and using a new workspace. It could be that the old install is interfering somehow.
-Hope that helps
