If I take that URL and paste it into my browser, the jarfile downloads fine.

Are you behind a firewall?
Comment 2 Karl Stenerud CLA 2011-03-16 20:20:13 EDT 
Yes. However, the file downloads successfully via firefox, chrome, safari, elinks, as well as with wget and curl, none of which use a proxy.
Comment 3 Karl Stenerud CLA 2011-03-16 20:30:02 EDT 
It's interesting to note, however, that a raw HTTP 1.0 request fails:

$ telnet download.eclipse.org 80
Trying 206.191.52.47...
Connected to download.eclipse.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /releases/helios/201006230900/content.jar HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
...

Connection closed by foreign host.
Comment 4 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2011-06-11 00:12:52 EDT 
I've tested the proxy support in 3.7 and it works properly.
Comment 5 RJ CLA 2011-10-07 09:52:01 EDT 
This is not working for me and failing with same error message on MAC OSX. However on windows it work like charm.
