Eclipse keeps asking for svn password - eclipse

Whenever I'm trying to synchronize/update my projects with SVN repo it asks me for password. It drives me nuts, I'm checking "save password" checkbox and it doesn't work at all.. what is more, I cant use a simple password.
It might be somehow connected with my company's proxy but eclipse plugin update sites work just fine.
I have a Subversion directory in my AppData dir, maybe I should delete this?
I can also provide additional info, I just don't know what may be relevant.
I'm using Subclipse with JavaHL provider and my Eclipse version is 4.4.2 but I have the same problem on Eclipse 3.7.2

Here's what worked for me. I went to Window/Preferences/Team and saw that there were two "SVN" sub-menus. I'm not sure how I got to this state, but I may have installed both Subversion and Subclipse at some point.
Anyway, in the first SVN submenu, there is a tab for SVN Connector. And in the other SVN menu, there is a subsection labelled "SVN interface". Both of these provide a drop-down list to select a connector/interface. In my case, in the first SVN menu, the SVN Connector was set to "SVNKit". In the second SVN menu, it was set to "JavaHL". I changed this to SVNKit, and have had no problems since.

This one worked well : http://www.thinkplexx.com/learn/howto/ide/eclipse/fix-eclipse-svn-always-asking-for-login-and-password-clear-keyring-or-cache
There is some files to delete :
Delete (or rename .old) in Eclipse : /configuration/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.keyring
Remove the file in your profile (AppData/Roaming or ~) : /.subversion/auth/svn.simple
Go to SVN perspective and enter login/password. Should keep it now.

What worked for me was going to Window->Preferences->Team then under 'SVN Interface' select the 'SVNKit (Pure Java)' option.

None of the current answers worked for me in eclipse neon. Therefore I edited hash file in /.subversion/auth/svn.simple/[filename]
I added password informarion:
K 15
svn:realmstring
V 51
<https://svn.example.com:443> Subversion Repository
K 8
username
V [length_of_username]
[username[
K 8
password
V [length_of_password]
[password]
END

This is what has just worded for me (Mars, subclipse, SVNKit):
I read the $WORKSPACE/.metadata/.log file, and found this:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.runtime 2 0 2015-09-04 09:24:33.282^M
!MESSAGE Authorization infrastructure (org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility.auth) not installed.
!STACK 0
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.auth.AuthorizationDatabase cannot be found by org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.11.0.v20150405-1723
Duckduckgoed the package name org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility.auth and found it in Maven repository, where I downloaded the jar file, which I copied into my $ECLIPSE_HOME/dropins directory.
After restarting eclipse there was no error in the log, I was just asked once my master password. No more annoying password dialogs since then.

I can provide one more solution that works for me after trying another solutions.
It was as easy as changing the combo "Apply To" in the login-pass pop-up window from "http://..." to "Repository Location".
I deleted C:\Users...\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\auth too as commented.
Eclipse version: Mars.2 Release (4.5.2)
Hope this helps.

went to Window/Preferences/Team/SVN
set to "SVNKit" from "JavaHL".
I changed this to SVNKit, and have had no problems since.

There are high chances that Eclipse (at least mine does: Eclipse 4.8.0 with Subclipse and SVNKit 1.8.12) is using the password storage of the command line Subversion utilities which are stored (at least under Linux) under ~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple.
As Daniel Juniszek pointed out in his answer you could edit this by hand, but doing this from command line is a little bit simpler:
Do an svn up in the project folder, give your password if it asks for, and enter yes for the Store password unencrypted (yes/no)? question.
After it finished updating successfully, do an svn up again to check that it does not ask for your password again.
If it asks again then maybe you have the same problem as me:
I had wrong permissions set on two hash files in the above directory (it was r--r--r-- instead of rw-r--r--) so the subversion command was unable to update the file. After I changed the permission with a chmod u+w ~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/YOUR_FILENAME_HERE command, the svn up updated the file with the password and finally Eclipse stopped asking me for password as well.

It seems that you (xwhyz) provided the answer yourself: delete the files in this folder:
c:\Users\<myname>\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\auth\svn.simple\
(Eclipse Neon.2 with Subclipse 1.10.13 + Subversion Client Adapter 1.10.3)
Edit: I also disable Eclipse's automatic check for updates, and is now doing that manually. When prompted for the SVN password just press OK 3-5 times, without re-typing the password.

So I tried all methods you proposed and it didn't work.
Solution for me was:
Right click on TortoiseSVN
Settings
Network
Subversion server file, button 'Edit'
I added:
[groups]
group_name = group_address
[group_name]
http-proxy-exceptions = proxy_exceptions
http-proxy-host = proxy_host
http-proxy-port = port_number
store-passwords = yes
where I filled group_name, group_address, proxy_exceptions, proxy_host, port_number and checked 'yes'.
Hope it works for you.

Probably the simplest solution to try, and worked for us, was to reset the user's password on their SVN account. We recently upgraded to a newer version of CollabNet SVN and we didn't migrate the user accounts (if that's something we could have done, it might have been nice).
There were two developers encountering this issue: one user forgot their password and the account had not yet been created for the other user. It would've been nice to see a more descriptive error message about the credentials in the behavior from the server.

I was facing similar problem and below solution worked for me: Open Windows - preferences - Team - SVN and check for SVN interface, it should be client as SVNKit in place of JavaHL and restart eclipse / RAD ad it will be working fine.

'cannot open git-upload-pack' error in Eclipse when cloning or pushing git repository

I am not able to clone or push to a git repository at Bitbucket in Eclipse:
It's weird, because a day before I didn't have any problem. I have downloaded the sts 3 times with no luck. This error keeps showing. Also I have installed SourceTree and it says 'This is not a valid source path / URL':
If I use git commands to import the project, it works, but I wan't to use EGit for this task, since I am a newbie with git.
I don't know if this has to do with it, but in the same directory I have the android-adt-bundle. This one works pretty well, but the project lies on GitHub and not Bitbucket. Also, I'm working with another person and he is able to fetch and push data from and to the Bitbucket repository. I have read lots of posts but none of them have helped me out.
I'm using Windows 7 btw.
Might also be bad SSL cert, fix the server
If you have a GIT server with an outdated or self-signed SSL cert fix the server, afterwards everything should run fine.
Insecure Hotfix: Let the client accept any certificate
The following solution is just a mere hotfix on client side and should be avoided as it compromises security of your credentials and content. There is a detailed explanation for this in "How can I make git accept a self signed certificate?" which offers more complex and more secure solutions you can try out if the following works in general.
In my case it was Eclipse using a different storage for the git config as the command line does and thus not having the option
git config http.sslVerify false
set (which I set using command line for the repo for working with invalid/untrusted SSL cert).
Adding the option insides Eclipse immediately resolves the issue. To add the option
open preferences via application menu Window => Preferences (or on OSX Eclipse => Settings).
Navigate to Team => Git => Configuration
click Add entry..., then put http.sslVerify in the key box and false in the value box.
Seems to be a valid solution for Eclipse 4.4 (Luna), 4.5.x (Mars) and 4.6.x (Neon) on different Operating systems.
It happens due to the following Reasons:
1) Firewall.
2) Network Issues.
3) Proxy Settings Mismatch
4) Connected through different Router - which is not authorized within the network.
5) Git Proxy Authentication Details
Finally I made it work thanks to the steps outlined in the Eclipse forum:
Set up the SSH key stuff
Download and install mysys git according to the github instructions at http://help.github.com/win-git-installation/
In C:/Users/you/ssh hide any existing keys (id_rsa and id_rsa.pub) in a subdirectory. If the ssh directory does not exist, create it. Of course, "you" is your username as the OS knows you.
From the start menu, run Git-Bash command shell (a regular DOS command shell will not work).
In the Git-Bash shell generate an rsa key based on your email (the one you registered at github):
ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "you#wherever.com"
and enter your pass phrase and confirm when asked.
The previous step should have created C:/User/you/ssh/id_rsa.pub which you can now open in a text editor and copy. At github, go to account settings, SSH Keys, add a key and paste this in the key box.
In Git-Bash again (notice the back-ticks in the next line):
eval `ssh-agent`
ssh-add C:/User/you/ssh/id_rsa
ssh git#github.com
Here is what you just did: You ran the ssh-agent which is needed by ssh-add. Then you used ssh-add to make note of the location of your key. Then you tried to ssh to GitHub. The response to this last command should be that you have successfully authenticated at GitHub but that you don't have shell access. This is just an authentication test. If the authentication was not successful, you'll have to sort that out. Try the verbose version:
ssh -v git#github.com
Assuming this worked....
In Eclipse, configure the remote push
Window > Show View > Git > Git Repositories will add a repository explorer window.
In the repository window, select the repository and expand and right-click Remotes and choose Create Remote.
Copy the GitHub repository URI from the GitHub repository page and paste it in the URI box.
Select ssh as the protocol but then go back to the URI box and add "git+" at the beginning so it looks like this:
git+ssh://git#github.com/UserName/ProjectName.git
In the Repository Path box, remove the leading slash
Hit Next and cross your fingers. If your get "auth fail", restart Eclipse and try step 5 again.
When you get past the authentication, in the next dialog select "master" for source ref, click "Add all branches spec" and "Finish".
Instead of using SSH git#github.com I did it with SSH git#bitbucket.org.
Now I can push and import without any problem.
After struggling for a couple of hours, I found that git config file was not updated when I added the entry sslVerify = false in my Eclipse.
I solved my problem by navigating to my .git directory and updating the config file to :
[http]
sslVerify = false
I added -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2 to eclipse.ini and it's working.
I use java 1.7
I had exactly the same issue with eclipse 2020-12. In Preferences->Git I changed "Http Client" to "Java built-in HTTP" and the issue is resolved.
One cause of this is having Fiddler2 configured to decrypt HTTPS traffic. Close Fiddler2 and it should work fine.
This issue can be caused when you have a local firewall which is preventing your application from being able to send any network traffic away from your machine. I.e. Outbound traffic or egress traffic rules.
Please try disabling your firewall for a quick test to see if this fixes your issue. If it does then setup the appropriate firewall policy for the application you are trying to use to push or pull to a git repository.
Recently I got same problem with existing repository.when I try to fetch from upstream not able Fetched object and got problems eclipse: cannot open git-upload-pack.
for me following solution work after adding TLS version in eclipse.ini file
Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2
For java7 need to add TLSv1.1 and for java8 need to TLSv1.2
Note: Need to restart eclipse once above configuration added.
In my case, it turned out that global proxy settings in "Preferences->Network connections" were interfering with git. Which is kind of confusing, because git has dedicated property for proxy configuration. Anyway, I've added repository host to "Proxy bypass" list and the problem was gone.
I faced "git-upload-pack not permitted" error in STS4 while fetching Bitbucket repository. I struggled for many many hours only to realize we need to use password generated with "Create app password" in Bitbucket (and not our own set password)
URL to generate password: https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/app-passwords/new
Use this password in "Clone a Git repository" in STS4
I just got this same error, "cannot open git-upload-pack", in Eclipse with a BitBucket repo trying to do a pull or a push.
I resolved it by switching local branches (Team/Switch To) to the master branch and doing a pull, and then switching back to the branch I was working on and pulling again.
I'm using Eclipse Kepler SR2 on Ubuntu 12.04LTS and was trying to access an internal GitHub using HTTPS.
Unfortunately, my underlying JVM with which Eclipse was started experienced problems with the self-signed certificate of the server. Switching to a different JVM for Eclipse got the HTTPS connection to our GitHub working.
Create a simple Eclipse starter that uses a different JDK, e.g. with OpenJDK:
/Eclipse_Kepler_4.4.2/eclipse -vm /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-i386/jre/bin
I got the similar problem. I just followed the below steps
1. Team > Remote > Configure Fetch from upstream...
2. Provide the https: bit bucket uri then Save and Fetch.
3. Reset the latest commit in your project. Team > Reset > Select the latest commit from remote folder
4. Then synchronize the workspace. Team > Synchronize (in synchronize perspective)
5. Right click on project and overwrite the local copy.
6. Click on Pull icon.
The Solution to this in Eclipse Mars 4.5.2:
Window -> Preferences -> Team -> Git -> Repository Settings -> AddEntry
Key: http.sslVerify
Value: false
For those who still have this problem, and none of the above solutions worked for you:
Update your versions of java and Eclipse.
In my case, I updated from java 7 to java 9, and Eclipse Mars to Eclipse Oxygen, and this problem was solved !!!
Add https.sslVerify as false...when you use https connection for importing from git
I had a similar problem and a quick fix to your issue is to make sure that you set your JVM option in the eclipse.ini file to use jre7. Older Jre's come with an old local policy file and this will return errors. One quick note also is that you need to point to your javaw not java.
-vm
c:\PROGRA~2\Java\jre745\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true
I had my proxy settings set up in Eclipse and wasn't connected via ssh, which was causing the error.
i've tried all those methods but it didn't work then a workmate told me that Putty Key Generator used to generate keys with 1024 bits but now Putty generate 2048 bits keys by default , so you just need to change the "Number of bits in a generated key" and it should work.
The problem can also be caused by wrong system time (by a couple of years), making the Git's certificate invalid.
I just changed the Network settings from Native to Manual, restart and the error is gone.
I'm using RAD 8.0.4.3 with and old version of EGit connected to TFS/Git. ;-)
I got this error message because I had a different user than what the repo expected in my git config.
This would obviously trigger the SSL Cert failures mentioned above.
Fixing to the correct user resolved this issue for me.
to fix SSL issue you can also try doing this.
Download the NetworkSolutionsDVServerCA2.crt from the bitbucket server and add it to the ca-bundle.crt
ca-bundle.crt needs to be copied from the git install directory and copied to your home directory
cp -r git/mingw64/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt ~/
then do this. this worked for me
cat NetworkSolutionsDVServerCA2.crt >> ca-bundle.crt
git config --global http.sslCAInfo ~/ca-bundle.crt
git config --global http.sslverify true
I finally solved this issue by disabling IPv6 on the network configuration
Screenshot of my network configuration
Note that I use a VPN connection. If you do too, you must restart it.
I'm pretty sure that it will work even if you don't use a VPN.
The repository owner should give you a contributor permission:
For the Eclipse running on IBM JDK the following 2 lines are mandatory in eclipse.ini after -vmargs:
-Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2
-Dcom.ibm.jsse2.overrideDefaultTLS=true
i've had the same issue on Spring Tool Suite (STS) and turns out, all i had to do was update my proxy settings in STS network config.
window > preferences > General > Network Connections and on the dropdown select "Manual" from "Native".
Here, just add your proxy url, port and your credentials for http and https by clicking on edit.
Apply and close.
Hope it works for you.
I got this error and after some research found that we need to create an access token in github and use it instead of the password which we have been using till now while git push and pull.
Github developer blog explaining the password deprecation: https://developer.github.com/changes/2020-02-14-deprecating-password-auth/
I have documented the steps here - you may try it out and see if it works for you.
https://webfuse.in/blogs/issues-troubleshooting/git-upload-pack-not-permitted-on-error-while-git-pull-and-git-push/
Thanks. This looks like an evergreen Question as I am answering after 7 years along with other valid answers!! :)
I had the same error. The error occurred suddenly while working. In my case it looked like an account problem or server side problem.
I sign out and signed in again in Bitbucket repository from web browser and this solved my problem.

Subclipse + SVNKit keeps asking for credentials when connecting through svn+ssh

I'm using Subclipse to connect to an SVN repository via svn+ssh and a private key (the server has the paired public key). The interface is SVNKit (Pure Java). After I enter the svn+ssh://repository... address I am prompted for credentials. I specify the username and private key file (I did not set a passphrase so it is left blank) and confirm. The window pops up again and this goes on indefinitely. No console message is provided.
Note 1: Marking "Save information" seems to have no effect. If there is a cache I'm supposed to be deleting this could help. I already deleted the keyring file in eclipse.
Note 2: I wasn't sure if the private key should be in SSH2 or OpenSSH formats, but I tried both and there is no difference.
Note 3: I cannot find org.tmatesoft.svn folder under plugins in eclipse. I installed SVNKit from the eclipse update site http://eclipse.svnkit.com/1.7.x.
Specifications:
Windows 7 64 bit,
eclipse 4.2.1 64 bit,
Subclipse 1.8.16,
Subversion client adapter 1.8.3,
SVNKit client adapter 1.7.5.1.
If there is any other information or log file I should provide I would be happy to do so.
I had a similar problem and figured out that I tried to use the private key generated by puttygen, but SVNKit needs an OpenSSH key.
My solution was:
Start PuTTY Key Generator
Load private key
Conversions \Export OpenSSH key
Select openSSH Key in Eclipse
Eventually it turned out that there was a problem with they key. It was encrypted with DSA instead of RSA and the server wasn't set up for it.
Why I got no message about a bad key pair is beyond me, but with a correct key it worked.
1-
under Window => Preferences SVN (or team => svn depending on your version), make sure you selected a library available in yourSystem... for example SVNKIT(Pure Java) .... instead of JAvaHL... which often missing
2-
under Window => Preferences, search for "Secure Storage" and setup a master password (usually clicking on Change Passowrd...). This isn't your svn password but for some reasons i ignore, if this master password is not set, Eclipse won't be able to store and retrieve your svn password when you click the save password..
I fixed this by generating a SSH key in PEM format
ssh-keygen -m pem
You can enable SVNKIT logging by creating a .options file in the eclipse home directory. The file should contain the following text:
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug=true
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug/error=true
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug/warning=true
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug/info=true
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug/fine=true
org.tmatesoft.svnkit/debug/trace=true
Then run eclipse with the -debug command line argument
I would not worry about Note 3. If you open Eclipse Preferences and go to Team > SVN and you can select SVNKit, then it is installed and available. On my system, it is a JAR in the plugins folder.
SVNKit is in charge of the SSH process, so you could visit their forums and email support#svnkit.com for information and ideas.
My recollection is that they normally cache the information for the duration of the Eclipse session, so not sure what is going on. If you keep responding to all the prompts does everything work? If not, then maybe you are being prompted because it cannot successfully use your credentials?
They have a Troubleshooting section in their wiki: http://wiki.svnkit.com/Troubleshooting

Unable to read repository at http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo

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.
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
I had the same problem and resolved it by
Deleting the cache directory \eclipse\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository\cache
Refreshing the repositories.
Preferences -> Install Update -> Available Software Sites => select the entry
Click the "Reload"
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.
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 :)
Another way to solve this kind of error is to start eclipse with this argument
-vmargs -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
Working fine with Eclipse (x64) 4.3.1
Had this problem in Linux, and I found that the user doesn't have permission to update the eclipse directory
change the owner of eclipse folder recursively, or run eclipse with user who has write permission to the folder
In Windows 7 32-bit version, I started the eclipse with as an administrator. This worked for me.
I had the same problem. Try to deactivate your Firewall (I had avast!), which worked for me.
(Sorry for my English I'm French :D)
Please make sure you are using correct url. If You are using url - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo on your eclipse luna(v4.4) then it might be not working in this case you should use - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna
I have tried this and its working.
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' -> 'Preferences' -> 'Install/Update' -> '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.
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.
For eclipse, there are normally different options available:
If you want to use the PHP development environment (only), you should go with the corresponding distro of eclipse. There is a distro for PHP provided by Zend.
You may add PDT to an indigo release by doing the following steps:
Check if an update site for PDT is included in your eclipse installation:
Open the Help > Install New Software dialog.
Click there on the link Available Software Sites.
In the list, the URL http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo should be marked.
Close the dialog.
Select from the Work with list the site with the right URL.
Enter in the filter box PDT and search in the list for the PDT tooling you want to install.
Install the PDT tooling.
If that does not work, you may download a complete update site from the PDT project site.
Visit the site (URL above).
Click on downloads.
Search there for the string "all in one update site".
Download the zip file.
Install it in your Indigo installation. Help > Install New Software > Add... > Enter name and select from button Archive the zip file
I hope some of the installation instructions will work for you.
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.
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.
Also try it by turning off the firewall, and similar services. It worked for me!
If you can't access https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ simply
try to use http://
instead of https://
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.
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
In my case, I discovered that the major issue why my eclipse won't connect to internet is my Internet Service Provider. I was only able to browse some websites but unable to browse other website. Fixing the issue with the ISP worked.
My issue was the Eclipse Marketplace client needed updating.
After trying Fredriks solution of
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.
The Marketplace client wouldn't load. But I could access it via a browser.
So, I went to the Help -> Eclipse Marketplace
it loaded fine
Clicked on Installed and found the Eclipse Marketplace Client and it had so i clicked it it updated and then when I did the standard update everything worked.
Sometimes, there will be firewalls and restrictions in the network preventing the plugin to get downloaded. We can try some other network. This actually resolved my issue.
I was facing the issue while adding team explorer plugin to eclipse from https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/team-explorer-everywhere.
Used team explorer plugin for ecplise for internal use of xamarin for mac.
Error:
unable to read repository at http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/team-explorer-everywhere

Goto https://github.com/microsoft/team-explorer-everywhere/releases
Download: TFSEclipsePlugin-UpdateSiteArchive-14.135.0.zip
From Eclipse->Help->Install new software.
From Add Repository window select Archive select the downloaded zip file.
Continue installation.
Also try if in the eclipse paths there is some duplicated
Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna
Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna/1234567...
Try both of them, one may work.
In my case, with 2 eclispes installed, in one of them the path
Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna
works, in the other one, i must select:
Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna/123456...
In both the internal browser can access to internet. Both are Luna (but one is RCM, the other one i don't remember).
No meu caso era o anti-vírus que estava bloqueando a conexão do eclipse, desativei o anti-víruse tudo funcionou o//.
Translation:
In my case it was the anti-virus that was blocking the connection from eclipse. I disabled the anti-virus and everything worked.

SpringSource ToolSuite and Subclipse Plugin

since I use SpringSource ToolSuite 2.7.1 and installed the latest Subclipse Plugin (1.6.x), this plugin ask's me every time I commit something into the repo for my password, regardless I've enabled the 'Save Password' checkbox. As I know, the Subclipse plugin doesn't store the credentials itself, instead use the authentication informations from the underlying SVN adapter so I try the following without any success:
1) delete ~/.subversion/auth
2) delete ~/.eclipse_keyring
After restarting STS the password dialog prompts again every time.
With Eclipse Indigo and the same Subclipse Plugin installed, this strange behavior doesn't happend, the passowrd is taken automatically as expected.
If I use svn from the command line, after I initially enter my passwords, it's used automatically and doesn't annoying me any longer.
Any sugggestions, why this doesn't work under SpringSource Toolsuite ?
Kind regards
Dominik
SOLVED: the reason was, that the STS.app do not has access to the MacOS X KeyChain for the SVN password. So therefor it has to ask again and again. The used Eclipse.app was added as trusted app for accessing the stored svn password. Strangely, I can't add STS.app to the list of trusted apps for the SVS password entry, but thats another question here. If I activate the 'access for every program' checkbox, STS.app is enable to read this password and don't ask any longer !
I don't have much experience with the subclipse plugin. I tried it a few times some years ago and it didn't go well for me. I then switched to subversive. I have not experienced this problem with the subversive plugin, and so perhaps you could try switching and seeing if this will help you.
I would try deleting or renaming the ~/.subversion folder. There are also settings in the config and servers file that can prevent password storage. You also do not mention what access method you are using ... for example passwords are not stored for svn+ssh://
It would also be relevant to know if you are using JavaHL or SVNKit. JavaHL is native Subversion so passwords are cached in ~/.subversion/auth. SVNKit caches passwords in the Eclipse keyring, but I believe it will read from the SVN password cache if it is already there -- or at least used to.
Finally, since it works with Eclipse but not STS (and there should be no reason why) maybe check permissions? Is STS running as a different user for some reason?
The settings for the secure storage are equal. But it seems, that these setting aren't used, the mentioned file doesn't exist. In the meantime I've installed the STS 2.7.2 update and a fresh Subclipse Plugin, but without success, the dialog popups again for every commit. After that, I create a new user, copy the whole STS 2.7.2 install dir including Maven, tc and the just installed Subclipsed plugin to a dir shared for all users. I have to fix the file permissions of the maven subdir due to lack of read permissions for the new user. I checked out a project from svn and modified it. After the initially question for username/password, this dialog don't popups any longer. It seems, that for this new user, things went fine. I switch back to the original user and start STS 2.7.2. from exactly the same place, the shared dir. But ... you predict it ... the dialog popups again and again and again .... It seems to be something wrong with any of my user settings, but which one ? I've delete ~/.subversion/auth and the whole ~/.subversion too. No way to avoid the constant question for the password for the given user. Mhm, strange, any further tips or suggestions ?

CVS showing all files as outgoing in Eclipse

I recently switched my development workstation from Windows to Linux (Fedora64). I use Eclipse with PDT and CVS for PHP programming. I copied my entire project folder, including the .project file to my Linux system and imported it in Eclipse. It automatically detected the CVS server IP and login. However, when I sync, it shows all my files (>8000) as outgoing, and moreover the sync is always stuck at 79%. How do I fix this without checking out the entire project from CVS again? Thanks.
This might be an issue with timestamps that are now slightly out-of-sync with the meta data recorded in the hidden ./CVS folders of your working copy. Try running cvs status on your sandbox (sorry, I'm not familiar with Eclipse's CVS interface, but that's how you would do it on the command line). That should reset the supposedly modified files.
You also might get away with simply running Update. If all else fails, do a fresh Checkout.
Update: I googled a little and found some articles that can be interpreted to say that Eclipse does an implicit status when doing an "Update" or "Update Check".
