Hi,
I followed the instructions given on the url "http://code.google.com/javadevtools/download-wbpro.html", but got the error "Unable to read repository at http://dl.google.com/eclipse/inst/d2wbpro/latest/3.6/content .xml."

Here are details of the Eclipse.
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Helios Service Release 1
Build id: 20100917-0705
I am running it on Windows XP (SP3)

Can anyone provide me the correct link or location of zip files from where I can download it ? I think there should be a way to download zip files similar to "http://code.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip.html".

Thanks!

What exactly did you do to install the tool? I just tried the update site listed and it worked just fine.

A ZIP'ed version of the 3.6 update site is available here...

Thanks a lot Eric.

However there is one thing that I would like to mention. If I directly click on the link that you have given it works, however if I copy and paste this in my browser(IE) it shows me 404 error. When I compared ur url with the one in the IE they were different. Here is how it looked in IE(404 error)

Anyhow I am good for now Smile
