Description Erich Pawlik CLA 2007-06-30 15:52:07 EDT
When using Update Manager on a fresh Europa installation, I am receiving the following error messages:

Network connection problems encountered during search.

The problem occurs on different mirros.

Erich:

Try adding one of these update site URLs instead -- could be a temporary mirroring problem.

http://europa-mirror1.eclipse.org/releases/europa/
http://europa-mirror2.eclipse.org/releases/europa/
http://europa-mirror3.eclipse.org/releases/europa/

Or, pick another mirror:

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/releases/europa/site.xml

---

FYI to cross-project list:

http://download.eclipse.org/tools/emf/updates/site.xml is deprecated. I think this might be listed here because of /cvsroot/callisto/europa-features/updateDirs.properties, which I've now updated. Too bad I didn't know about this file before now! I hope this will make its way into the next Europa spin.

If anyone is still referencing this site in a <discovery/> tag in one of your feature.xml files, please correct that URL to point to http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/updates/ instead.
Comment 2 Martin Oberhuber CLA 2007-07-03 10:00:35 EDT
Since it looks like ALL the update URLs are affected, this seems to be a network configuration issue on your end -- I could use UM without any issues on my Europa install, both on WinXP (Sun 1.4.2_13, 1.5.0_11 and 1.6.0_01 tested) and on Linux x86_64 (Sun 1.5.0_10 JVM).

Erich,

Have you solved your problem yet? I got the same kind of error when trying to install Spring IDE. I created a new remote site in "search for new fetures to install" and pointed to http://springide.org/updatesite/. After clicking Finish button, I got the:

Error parsing site stream. [Premature end of file.]
Premature end of file.

error message.

I was using Windows version of Eclipse Europa 3.3 and checked automatic select mirrors.

When I used "search for update" option and clicked Finish, I also got the same error message on various sites.

Sounds like you are connecting to a bad mirror. Uncheck that and try picking specific mirrors.

If you can determine which mirror(s) are corrupt, you can let the webmasters know and they can contact those mirror(s) for resolution.
