As frustrating as it is, to you and other users, this is actually working as expected (that is, it's expected not to work). 

But, with P2 having now been released there _might_ be ways we can improve on this, so will accept this as an enhancement request. 

Thanks,

This same scenario works perfectly for me today.

I used 
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
to install eclipse SDK.
Then I used http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates/
to try to add stuff.

My first attempt was to select all and install. This failed (see bug 241126).

Then I tried just WST Server Core and WST Server UI. Success.

Next I tried to add JEE, JEE Dev, Web, Web Dev. Eclipse crashed.

Next I tried to add JEE. success. restart eclipse
Then JEE dev. success. restart.
Web restart
Web dev restart.

So now I have something that works for some cases like JEE + source. I have no confidence that it is close to what my users will see if they use JEE and it was a pain in the neck.

I don't think there's anything to do with with old bug/update site ... I think current ones work fine ... so closing as 'wontfix'. 

Thank you.
