I have a Git repo and project on Eclipse. I am trying to share project on github. But i always get this error:
Can't connect to any URI:
https://github.com/<username>/<repositoryname>.git
(https://github.com/<username>/<repositoryname>.git: authentication
not supported)
I have tried the solutions of people who have encountered this problem but nothing has changed. In my opinion, my git password is not going and I can not write my password when I use the console. I am beginner. I want to understand why happened and how can i fix?
That could be linked to your version of Eclipse/EGit, because of "Discontinue support for weak cryptographic standards".
Try again with the latest version of Eclipse/EGit, to make sure it does not use TLSv1.0 which has been disabled on GitHub side.
I resolved the issue by increasing the timeout.
This solved my problem.. Goto Window -> Preferences -> Team -> Git -> On right side panel update time to 2500. `Connection timeout (seconds): 2500. – Hope it will help
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If you have a GIT server with an outdated or self-signed SSL cert fix the server, afterwards everything should run fine.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.
I'm trying to create my own SVN server so I can work on my android projects everywhere.
I have an VPS and I installed svn, I set up the directory and added a use to the password file.
After a while I finally managed to create a project with
svn import -m "initial import" . file:///home/admin/svn/reposvn/testp/trunk
But I don't understand?
Can I only import project that are on my server?
If thats the case I could just use ftp and not worry about svn at all.
What I would like to do is have a url to use in things like eclipse.
my subdomain points to /home/admin/svn/ and then I typed in /reposvn
So I tried the urls
http://(mydomain)/reposvn
and
svn://(mydomain)/reposvn
but neither worked
Says
Detected a cycle while processing the operation
svn: Redirected cycle detected for URL ....
I also set up daemon or whatever with svnserve -d
any ideas? Thanks!
Once I wrote an article about this. I think it will give you enough information about this issue: How to set up SVN version control over SSL with Apache to use in Eclipse.
OK I got it working
One of the thing that took me a while to figure out is that svn:// is for the svnserve daemon
where the http:// access has to be set up through Apache.
I deleted my entire svn and reinstall / re set up everything, so there might have been some sort of messed up configuration.
However I set up the daemon with
svnserve -d --foreground -r /home/admin/svn
and then I was able to connect with svn://

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
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core.provisionexception unable to read repository
Unknown host exception
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.
I'm trying to add this repository to Eclipse (Indigo):-
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Seems okay when checked in a browser, but I keep getting "unable to connect" in Eclipse, and when I check the URL Eclipse is apparently looking for:-
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/content.xml
in a browser, I get a "404 not found". The locations for previous releases (e.g. galileo) don't seem to be there either. Have they moved? Am I misunderstanding something?
I tried some of the suggestions in this previous thread:-
Eclipse updates not working
But they don't seem to work (and I'm not using a proxy anyway).
Hemdoar
This worked for me:
Open terminal. Navigate to Eclipse folder.
sudo nano eclipse.ini
at the bottom, add this line in:
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack = true
Then ctrl+O to save, ctrl+X to close (it says at bottom). IPv4/IPv6 problems? Solved.
Then delete the cache VonC said to:
<eclipse>/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/cache
(This can be done using "sudo rmdir /p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/cache" or by typing "sudo nautilus" into terminal, to open a root-priveleged filesystem browser, than navigating to, selecting the folder, and pressing the delete key). Then restart eclipse, goto Help>install new software>available software sites
Make sure the repos you want (such as "http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates/") has a "/" right at the end. If it doesn't, delete that entry, and create a new, identical one which does, because Eclipse won't just let you edit it and click ok. Then click ok, and from the combo box choose e.g. the egit link, and lo, it will find it.
Still not working? Window>show view>internal web browser; check it can access internet. Hope that helps!

VonC Sep 14 '11 at 6:03
I used VonC's answer to good effect. I also uninstalled a program called webroot. I think this had something to do with it because other programs were also having network problems.
This is because windows IPV6 issue. Try adding the following VM option in the eclipse.ini
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
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.

Goto 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
first resolve proxy conflicts and if then too eclipse is not getting connected to internet *turnoff your firewall/antiviru*s and try again
To resolve proxy conflicts:Go to windows->prefernces-general tab->network settings
if you dont use proxy settings, cgange native to direct
if you use proxy, chenge native to manual and fill details of proxy for http and https by pressing 'edit' and clear SOCKS tab by pressing 'clear'
check if your SOCK is disabled on operating system too. or doing it open to 'Internet options' dailog box. Go to connections and press lan connection. press 'advanced' button ans clear the textboxes in front of 'socks' and uncheck the msg saying 'use same address for other network protocols'
I did this and worked for me
If you are using Fiddler2 (or any other web sniffer/debugger tool), it may be your problem, as it acts as a local proxy.
Sometimes, even if its not running, I find myself obligated to start it and disable traffic capture.
Hope that helps!
