This is a bit of a repost but the solutions proposed in the posts I found previously did not work for me, so I thought I might just as well start a new discusion.
I have a new Eclipse Indigo and I want to install the GWT-Plugin. I am running java Runtime Environment build 1.7.0.01 on a Windows OS (64 bit). The Eclipse is also the 64 bit version. I execute eclipse as administrator (but the same problem pops up if I don't).
Eclipse is told to juse java 1.6 as a compiler (since I hear there are issues with 1.7 and GWT).
So I click Help>>Install New Software and put in http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7 as a source. This then takes forever (Fetching Children of GWT) resulting in:
"Unable to read repository at http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7/content.jar.
Unable to read repository at http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7/content.jar.
Read timed out" as an error.
I have tried this all day. Once I at least could read the repository but could not install because of some unsatisfied dependencies. But that was on another eclipse distribution if I remember correctly.
So generally I don't seem to have any luck with GWT.
I would be greatfull for any advice to get GWT running. thanks.
Edit googled further, found a blog entry that told me to update to java 1.7.0_04. did that. no change.
Edit2 On the assumtion, that it is in fact not my eclipse but the google servers, I used the download of the plugin (as sugested by kush in the comments). This gets me to this screen http://i.imgur.com/0qV1v.png but not that much closer to the solutiuon.
"Cannot complete the install because one ore more required items could not be found."
I have tried this with Indigo and Helios, the ruslts are similar.
This took a while (three days) but the answer is as easy as it is strange: Do not use the 64 bit version of eclipse.
I would apreciate if someone finds out what the problem with the 64 bit versions is, but as soon as I started using the 32 bit version (which works fine on the 64 bit windows) everything installed perfectly.
Anyway, hope to help somone else with this post.
I have been struggling with this issue for days now. I cannot get the GWT eclipse plugin installed on my laptop. I am using the 32 bit version of eclipse. Plus, I can install the plugin just fine on the 64bit version of Eclipse on my PC, so I know that is not the issue.
Finally! I solved this.
Had to completely uninstall JRE 7 then everything installed fine.

Can anyone please help me what to do with this? My eclipse wont open. I already downloaded multiple files from the internet and yet it's still the same. No errors are found since it wont start.
So From the comments above what i can see is you have download the 64 bit eclipse version although you have 32 bit architecture. So I recommend you to download the 32 bit version of Eclipse.
NOTE : Luna is the latest version of Eclipse.
Following is the link.
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/epp/downloads/release/luna/SR2/eclipse-java-luna-SR2-win32.zip
Download 64 bit java 6 or 7 version and install it. It would solve your problem
I have Eclipse Juno with Java EE, PHP, C++ and PyDev in it and it was working perfectly under Ubuntu 12.04 and later under 14.04.
Yet, when I upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 14.10, Eclipse doesn't work anymore, whenever I try to open it, it shuts down immediately.
I want to upgrade it to Luna but it doesn't give me the chance to launch the upgrade, I have an idea I have and wish to hear your advice on whether it is right or wrong.
What I'd like to do is to download Luna and extract it over the older version.
Will this work? Or will it make it even worse?
Is there anyone who tired it before?
You may even download Luna, and extract it to a different folder (not necessary on top of the older version).
Afterwards, launch Luna and try to load your previous workspace(s). You might want to backup your workspaces folder, before letting Luna attempt and load from there.
Updating the eclipse through the command line is safer. Try it using eclipse site
and also refer to this answer
I find solution here https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=440660#c20 on comment 20
This seems to be a bug in GTK according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk2-engines-oxygen/+bug/1242801
(there a similar problem for Meld was reported).
Another workaround mentioned there is
For oxygen, edit the normally already existing file "/usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" and change
GtkComboBox::appears-as-list = 1
into
GtkComboBox::appears-as-list = 0
This workaround is working for me.
I have an Eclipse Kepler IDE where ADT Plugins, CDT plugis, Android NDK and Java is installed. It is sort of my lifeline IDE at work. Without this my whole work will come to a standstill. I have this IDE installed on a Vbox Ubuntu machine and have been using it for the past one year(ever since the glorious JUNO version days!). About 2 months ago, my IDE was veyr slow so I upgraded it from Juno to Kepler expecting better performance. I must admit it was not any at all. Also, on my VBox, the IDE froze a couple of times whenever I plugged in a USB in my Virtual Box. I assumed it must be some bug with the USB and just left it. Today, all of a sudden (this is the 5th time I have rebooted my virtual image) whenever I tried to copy a piece of code in my IDE, the whole IDE freezes. Only a kill -9 pid number command came to rescue after that. What should I do? Please suggest!!
thanks a lot.
First, you should configure the Java VM to create a thread dump when Eclipse hangs. Eclipse doesn't just hang for the fun of it; something is wrong but since there is a deadlock, Eclipse can't tell you anymore. Read up on debugging deadlocks.
The next step when Eclipse is acting up is always to clean the .metadata folder since a crash sometimes corrupts important files in there. See this blog post.
If that also doesn't help, you can try to reinstall Eclipse. Install the plugins one after the other, noting down what you do until you find the one which breaks the others.
I've just installed Eclipse Helios 64bit but when i try to install Acceleo, te download seems endless and Eclipse seems blocked.
Is there someone that can help me?
Thank you
The very first install of anything in a new Eclipse tend to be extremely long (Eclipse usually contacts all of its available update sites and checks for update on every single installed plugin before doing anything).
Within a new Eclipse and with a lot of update sites available, the longest I've seen it take for a single install was about 10 minutes. You can usually check whether Eclipse is actually doing something by opening the "Progress" view (Window > Show View > Progress).
I am one of the member of the dev' team of Acceleo and I am always working on a 64bits Eclipse with a 64 bits virtual machine and there are no problems. If you are experiencing this problem it is because of a timeout of the update site. Right now, it is the release of the sixth milestone of all the Eclipse projects so the server tends to be overloaded. You can try it again or just wait a few hours. If you absolutely want Acceleo today, you can always download the zip version directly from here.
Since adding the Blackberry Java classes from their website into eclipse, I've had it where eclipse will randomly close, with no discernible pattern, rhyme, error or reason. Here is the environment/software packages that I am using:
Windows XP SP2
Eclipse v3.5.1
Blackberry Java Plugin v1.1.1.200911111641-15
Blackberry Java SDK 4.5.0.21
I've tried the usual steps of complete uninstall and reinstallation of Eclipse and the accompanying plugins on multiple systems with the same configuration, including one that had a fresh install of Windows XP SP2. Upgrading to Eclipse 3.6 didn't work (the plugin wont' install as it's the wrong version), nor the downgrade to 3.4 for the same reason. I also increased the heap size to 512 (system has two gigs of memory) as some research into Eclipse doing this type of thing with Groovy was resolved that way, but again, no dice. Eclipse works great when the blackberry plugins are not installed, and no entries of errors or issues in the event log are helping to show what the issue with these plug-ins might be.
So if anyone has ran into this issue, and even better, has a solution, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: An additional to my issue, autoComplete with the Blackberry SDK seems to make this extremely unstable, like almost a guaranteed crash. Is this fixable at all?
For anyone that loads this question up trying to find a solution, I've never found a fix. It seems to be a bug with this version of the IDE. If there is a fix, please post.
Did you try to downgrade Eclipse to 3.4 (Ganymede)? I experienced similar issues when I tried upgrading Eclipse to something greater than 3.4.2.
I think the problem is with the plugin, not the IDE. Eclipse has always been stable for me until I installed the BB plugin. Since then it crashes all the time. Since I've installed the release (non-beta) version of the plugin that was recently released I can't even get my project to build.
This could be a manifestation of this bug in Eclipse. Check your C:\eclipse directory for files like hs_err_pidxxxx.log. The file goes on to explain this error:
#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x753ba053, pid=3144, tid=5820
#
# JRE version: 6.0_20-b02
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (16.3-b01 mixed mode, sharing windows-x86 )
# Problematic frame:
# C [USP10.dll+0x1a053]
I've been experiencing this as well. It's completely debilitating. It causes Eclipse to just up and crash out of nowhere (and programming in a language as verbose as Java without Content-Assist is insane).
The bug has been fixed in Eclipse 3.6M7, but unfortunately I can't get the JDE Plug-in to install in the latest release candidate.
This is a known issue with Eclipse 3.5.X and has been fixed for 3.6.0

Looks like we are stuck with this until the next update to the BB Eclipse plugin.
