Unable to update from repository : CCRC - plugins

I am trying to update my view using 'update from repository'. I get an error in a window 'Problem performing ClearCase operation'. I am using ClearCase plugin with SOATest. It was all working fine till pervious day but for some reason its not working today. I am rather new to ClearCase and I have tried to check the logs. I am not sure if I am missing out something.

None of the recent ClearTeam 8.0.x IBM Fixes involve the "update from repository", so you can try and:
check if you are still connected to the CCRC server
set up debug tracing for the ClearCase Remote Client (if you are using a CCRC 7.x
asking the admin of the CCRC server to check the logs on the server side.

Unable to Finish connecting to SonarQube server

This is going to sound like a ridiculous question, but using the SonarLint Eclipse plugin (v3.2.0) on the latest Eclipse (Oxygen), I am unable to add a new SonarQube server connection.
I am working behind a company firewall, but that doesnt appear to be an issue. I am following the steps here and am able to successfully connect to our internal SonarQube instance, provide my credentials, but it is just on the final step, that the 'Finish' button does not seem to do anything, see screen below:
I appreciate there is probably some background processes need to run in order for this Finish to actually finish :) But this doesnt appear to be doing anything...Anyone else experience this issue?
Any before people ask, I've restarted Eclipse/laptop, uninstalled and reinstalled SonarLint plugin etc.
Thanks in advance!
SonarLint in Eclipse are storing credentials in Eclipse secure storage that itself is protected by a master password. So you must reset it or delete it to add a new SonarQube server connection. You can try this step :
In your Eclipse Go to Window > Preferences, filter and find Secure Storage.
In the Tab Contents find and highlight org.sonarlint.eclipse.core, click Delete > Apply > OK. After deletion process is finished, Eclipse will ask if you want to restart the IDE. It is strongly recommended that you restart the IDE and try again to adding SonarQube server in Eclipse.
Thanks.
On my linux machine I had the same issue, because the used master password provider doesn't work properly.
This answer worked for me:
Open Window > Preferences
Go to General > Security > Secure Storage
At Master password providers uncheck the used provider. The enabled provider with the highest priority is the used one [for me it was "Linux Integration (64 bit)"].
Click apply
I also encountered this problem, but was able to work around it.
This is environment in which I was running:
Eclipse Oxygen.1
Linux VM (VirtualBox) on Windows host
Solution that worked for me based on this post:
Uninstall SonarLint.
Reinstall using Help -> Install new software...
On the Install dialog, un-check the option "Show only the latest versions of available software"
Select the older version of SonarLint.
Select Next and continue with the install.
After installing, configure your SonarQube server like normal.
Upgrade to the latest version of SonarLint via Help -> Check for Updates
In my case the problem also concerned the credentials storage but was caused by the Avecto Defendpoint Client. The company restricted the permissions to create subfolders in user home (c:\users<username>). I had to create manually missing subfolders (.sonarlint and .eclipse) after access level elevation and after filling the reason in a text field. Then I had to give the permissions to those folders for myself. Having created them I could proceed with adding server to sonarlint plugin.

Connecting Eclipse to SVN server only when needed

I have installed SVN server on my Synology NAS and have successfully connected my Eclipse Java project to it.
However, I do not want to have the NAS online all the time.
I have not been able to see how I can get the SubVersive Eclipse plugin to connect to SVN "on demand" only.
Is this possible ?
Is it "safe" for me to work like this ?
Subversion already works in this way. It's designed to work in an "offline" mode, only communicating with the server when performing checkouts, commits, locks, updates, looking at logs, etc. If you're not performing an operation which requires data from the server, the client doesn't attempt to contact the server.

eclipse tfs plugin won't connect to tfs server

We have the TFS server installed and running at http://myhost:8080/tfs/web/.
I've installed the Eclipse TFS plugin and updated Eclipse to 4.2
However, when I try to add a TFS server in the Team Explorer perspective, I get "The server myhost failed to respond"
How can I get this to work?
Eclipse has some issues with the default proxy detection.
Go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Network Connections and set Proxy to anything other than Native.
You can choose Direct, but you'll have issues if you need to perform software updates or installation. Or you can choose Manual and configure your proxy settings manually.
Just found the answer. It's because "Cisco AnyConnect Web Security Agent" was running on my machine. I turned it off and now the TFS plugin is working.
Use the URL of http://myhost:8080/tfs in your server connection page rather than http://myhost:8080/tfs/web/?

Subversion Connection: RA layer request failed

Out of the blue yesterday afternoon, subversion connections from my Eclipse IDE to our Subversion repository have been failing (with both Subversive and Subclipse).
I can browse the subversion directory via the browser and it only connections via Eclipse that are failing (I am using a MacBook Prod Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.1; latest Java from Apple 1.6.0)
Message receive when attempting subversion connection:
"RA layer request failed
svn: OPTIONS of 'http://example.com/tags/project': Could not read status line: Connection reset by peer (http://example.com)"
Are you trying to browse the repository, or do you have an existing working copy you are trying to update? I think you are probably not entering a proper SVN repository URL. Just because the browser is working, does not mean that is the right URL for the client. It might be. It depends whether you are browsing the repository directly or using a web GUI.
The problem could also be related to a proxy server. If you need a proxy server, odds are that your web browser is already configured to use it. However, SVN clients have their own configuration for proxies that has to be configured separately.

Eclipse unable to connect to TFS Server

I am using eclipse with Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer Everywhere 2010. I was able to successfully import my Project, but every time I open eclipse, The progress window gets stuck at 60% while trying to "Refresh TFS Server Information for http://my.server".
Eventually I will get an error from eclipse:
An internal error occured during:"refreshing server item information for project MyProject".
com.ctc.wstc.exc.WstxIOException: Connection reset.
Also I get this messagewhen trying to refresh manually:
An internal error occured during:"Refreshing TFS Server information for http://my.server".
[com.ctc.wstx.exc.Wstx.LazyException] Connection reset.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
The "Connection reset" is coming from TEE's network communication layer and message points to a network problem. Can you use any TFS features from the plug-in (is "Refresh Server Item Information" the only thing that fails)? If you can't use any TFS features from the plug-in, check that Eclipse's HTTP proxy configuration is correct.
If you can use some TFS features, but the server item information refresh feature is failing, check that you don't have an HTTP proxy, firewall, or NAT device between your client and TFS that is dropping TCP sockets after a short time. Refreshing information for a large number of files, or from a heavily loaded server, may take a while (perhaps minutes). A network device that "drops" the active TCP socket without notifying the client would cause this behavior.
First, install TEE SP1 if you didn't already.
If the error persists, it might be a potential bug so post it on connect or on the TEE forum.
I ended up uninstalling and re-installing eclipse and TEE plug-in. After that everything connects and works as far as TFS is concerned.
