Couldn't load Eclipse Marketplace in Eclipse Kepler - eclipse

I use Eclipse Kepler on Windows 8. When I open Eclipse Market place, its progressing bar still remains in the same place. I have proper internet connection. What might be the problem? Help me.. I couldn't install any new plugins..

A wild guess would be your firewall is blocking the access to the marketplace. That's not unusual, especially on business computer. Fortunately, there is an alternative. Go to http://marketplace.eclipse.org/ and select the plugin you need. Then drag the "install" icon and drop it in your Eclipse window. Normally, it should install the plugin.

add the following two lines in start of /eclipse.ini
-vm
C:/Program Files/Java//bin/javaw.exe
also change
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion <(JDK version you are using)1.8>
Now it works...!
I used the answers in the following thread...
Eclipse Kepler not connecting to internet via proxy
thanks guys!

Eclipse Marketplace not showing up (missing) on 3.7 Indigo

I installed the Eclipse Marketplace via http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/indigo/ and Help>Install New Software... and it's not showing up under the help menu as expected after a complete reboot and I can't seem to find anyone else who is having this problem?
What led me to installing the Eclipse Marketplace in the first place was my attempt to install Eclipse Color Themes (http://eclipse-color-theme.github.com/update/). Eclipse Color Themes did not appear where indicated in it's documentation either so I thought I would attempt installing through the marketplace but I think I may have a larger plug-in related issue however plug-ins like Aptana and other misc. custom plug-ins installed correctly.
I'm running Eclipse on Windows 7 64-bit if that's of any help as well.
I had same problem.
I add http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo repo and install MPC and Maven.
I tried #d_pilot's answer which didn't work but found the repo at http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/indigo/
You should be able to change the /mpc/(version)/ to get whatever you want from there, which is nice for all the other eclipse classic versions.

To add some Google search terms:
I had this issue when installing via Ubuntu apt-get package management and ransom bot's answer worked for me.

How to uninstall Tasktop from Eclipse

I'm trying to uninstall Tasktop from my Eclipse IDE, but when I select it the uninstall button keeps being disabled (maybe because of some dependent plugin I can't find)
Has anyone had a similar experience? I could use some pointers on how to get this plugin uninstalled.
I had other problem with the task top plugin. I followed the conventional way to uninstall the plugin. Help -> About Eclipse -> Installed Software. The plugin was removed from the list of installed software, but still existed as a plugin, Even after resets.
As a last option I manually removed all com.tasktop.* jars and directories from the eclipse\plugin directory. That seems to do the work without any side effect damage for now.
Of course you will have to close eclipse prior to the above action.
Where are you going for the uninstall? If you go to Help -> About Eclipse -> Installed Software, you should be able to uninstall any top-level feature there. Is this not your experience?

Subclipse plugin doesn't work in Eclipse?

even though there was no error when installing Subclipse in Eclipse. I won't see the SVN perspective at all?
I have tried with "Eclipse Classic 3.5.1" and with "Eclipse for PHP Developers".
After downloading and unzipping the packages I used Eclipse's "Install Software" mechanism to install Subclipse 1.6.x. I followed the steps described here: http://www3.math.tu-berlin.de/jreality/mediawiki/index.php/Subclipse_installation_in_eclipse_galileo.
But after Eclipse re-starts I don't get any SVN Repository perspective? I have tried to un-install/re-install all the software components many times now. Finally after 3 hours of trying I am giving up. Does anyone have any hint what I am missing?
Thanks!
Peter
I had the same problem. I use Windows 7 64 bits OS. I clean read-only flag of eclipse folder in C:\Program Files (x86) and give full access right to all users on my PC. I reinstalled it from update site and it works.
This is a known bug with subclipse: http://subclipse.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=992
EDIT For anyone keeping track of this, it looks like Eclipse Helios SR1 may have fixed the issue. I haven't tested it myself yet, but by the sounds of the discussion at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=322929 it should now be working.
I just had this same issue with Ubuntu. It turned out to be permissions. Once I gave write permissions to everywhere in my eclipse installation and then reinstalled subclipse, its views and so forth appeared, just like magic.
I don't know what you are looking for. But after installing the Subclipse plugin, you should have a new entry in the File | New | Project dialog. Something along the lines of "Checkout project from SVN"
Then when you hit continue, you can enter your SVN repository details, check the branch you are interested in, etc. After checking out a project, you can right click on it and go to the "Team" submenu to get the features provided by Subclipse like check in code, diff, merge, etc.
I ran into the exact same problem too. I installed both Subclipse and GWT/GAE plugins and couldn't find any evidence of them after installation.
I'm on Windows 7 and had installed Eclipse 3.5 SR2 into C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5. I also put my workspace in C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5\workspace. When I was checking things I noticed there was a lock icon on the C:\Program Files (x86)\eclipse-3.5\workspace.
I reinstalled Eclipse to C:\dev\eclipse and the workspace to C:\dev\eclipse\workspace. After that the installation of the plugins went without a hitch and I could see the SVN Repository Exploring perspective (no idea why some of the other posters claim this perspective doesn't exist). I suspect it was some sort of permissions problem on the directories.
Another way to check and see if the whole thing was installed correctly is to go to the SVN Repositories view. Go to Window -> Show View -> Other, and then search for SVN. If you see a bunch of SVN views like "Repositories," Subclipse is installed.
I had this problem due to some kind of incompatibility between Subclipse and Android ADT plugins. One answer suggested yoxos which gives you all your eclipse plugins from one central repository.
Had the same problem. I work on Linux, and when I installed eclipse in /usr/local/eclipse, Subclipse did not show up. The solution was to install Eclipse locally, e.g. in /home/user/eclipse. Now Subclipse (and other plugins too) worked!
Edit: guess it could be the same on Windows.
I think this is due to some incompatibilities between the packages of subclipse and the gwt 2.x plugin and android... as this started happen to me after I upgrade to v 2.0 of gwt back in the day.
The same issue repeats both on Mac and Windows... and it seems no fix has been released.
Now the only way I've found to move on with my work is to remove subclipse and install the latest subversive plugin instead.
http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/
I know this ain't subclipse but it works very similar and no issues with gwt nor android plugins.
it worked for me and so I hope it works for you in the mean time.
cheers,

Problem updating Eclipse Ganymede

I am predominately a .NET developer so forgive me if I am missing something obvious. I use Eclipse Ganymede (3.4.0) for Blackberry development.
I have Blackberry JDE Plugin 4.3.0.8 installed and would like to install 4.5.0. I try using Help -> Software Updates to get it but get the following error:
"Cannot launch the Update UI. This installation has not been configured properly for Software Updates".
Any ideas on how to fix this? Failing that any ideas how to install 4.5.0 without using the Update facility in eclipse? I have installed the 4.5.0 component back but it has not put it into eclipse, just installed files in c:\Program Files\Research In Motion.
I'd rather not do a fresh installation of eclipse!
Download them manually here: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/javaappdev/javaeclipseplug.jsp
The first idea that comes to mind is that Eclipse doesn't know where to look for updates.
Go to Help->Install New Software (not update)
Click on Available Software Sites
There you can Add, Enable/Disable software sites(repositories)
Just like Jamie said, download Component pack from Blackberry site, and install them with Help->Software Updates->Available Software->Add Site->Archive
UPDATE And talking about the error, see
Getting the message “Cannot start the update ui…” when trying to run the update UI in Eclipse
Thanks for the links guys but I ended up downloading a fresh copy from the website, the archive that I had must have been corrupt somehow because I tried using it again and had the same issue.

Eclipse failed to response under Fedora 12

i tried fedora12 yesterday, but i find eclipse doesn't work. at first i thought this problem is related to SELinux, but after i turn off selinux, i still can't
create a project, i press the "next" or "finish" button, there is no response. well the "cancel" button works. there is no error popup, or error logs.
i tried eclipse -debug -console; but there is no log output when i click the button. it is so weird, is this happened to anyone before?
environment: fedora12, JDK 1.6.0_17, eclipse Galileo.
computer: t400.
This is a bug due to a change introduced in GTK 2.18, see Bug 291257. The current workaround is to export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true before to run Eclipse. I actually use the following startup script:
#!/bin/sh
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla/
export ECLIPSE_HOME=/opt/IBM/eclipse
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true
$ECLIPSE_HOME/eclipse $*
I can't install plugins from update sites, either.
In a blank eclipse install, adding a new update site (es: jboss tools) using the keyboard works; also, it's possible to select a release to install from the available software list.
The new plugin gets installed, but won't appear in perspectives (es: jboss devel) after restart.
After that, adding new update sites and trying to install their releases won't work, the available software list remains empty.
Using Fedora 12 Eclipse 3.5..
By the way, "Fedora Eclipse" rpm is screwed at the moment, it won't install a single file
SOLUTION:
Eclipse 3.6 fix those problems http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/
Just add helios update site
There seems to be an incompatability with gtk/gdk shipped with F12. You can tell eclipse to use the native GDK and it should correct these problems:
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 ./eclipse
You can also add -DGDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 to your eclipse.ini file. That should help if you switch workspaces.
it's a bug, the keyboard works. try it.
