Description
Pascal Rapicault
We've been getting a bit of these on IRC recently. I don't know what to tell them. Try deleting the content of <eclipse>/p2/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/cache and try again. Also are you running behind a proxy? Thank you for your assistance and attention to this matter! Per Comment 2: Deleted the contents of <eclipse>\p2\org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core\cache Received the following messages: Some sites could not be found. See the error log for more detail. Unable to connect to repository http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5/content.xml Connection refused: connect No repository found at http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5. Unable to connect to repository http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo/content.xml Connection refused: connect No repository found at http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo. In answer to "Also are you running behind a proxy?", Yes I am running behind a proxy (it is a computer on a large corporation network). I know very little about proxy configurations, HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS, etc. I see these items under Window->Preferences->Network Connections, but I don't know what to change or enter. I have no problems accessing the Internet using Internet Explorer 7 (IE7). Running IE7, I select Tools->Internet Options->Connections->LAN Settings and there are 2 frames, "Automatic configuration" and "Proxy server". In the "Automatic configuration" frame, only the "Use automatic configuration script." check box is "checked" and the "Address" is set to "http://wpad.XXXXXXXX.com/wpad.dat", where "XXXXXXXX" is the company's name. In the "Proxy server" frame, the first check box, "Use a proxy server for your LAN (These settings will not apply to dial-up or VPN connections.)", is unchecked and all other settings are grayed-out. Roger, sorry for the late answer. Unfortunately this kind of proxy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config) is not supported by eclipse. Maybe ask your sys admin if he can provide you with something that would fit in the eclipse preference boxes like a proxy address :) Pascal, enhancing proxy to support PAC is tracked on bug 279471. Is this the only problem discussed here? Or is the problem in the initial comment something different? No, this is the same problem I could not find the original one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 279471 *** |
