Hi all,

I have problems connecting to updates repositories from eclipse (Linux Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit, Eclipse 3.7.1, Java 1.6.0).

Trying to connect to http:/ /download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo gives this log:

Quote:

Unable to read repository at http:/ /download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/content.xml.
Unable to read repository at http:/ /download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/content.xml.
Connection reset


Connecting to http:/ /download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.7, 3.6, etc. gives similar results. (The "space" in links is on purpose, I can't post here links)
But connection to projects repositories like Mylin or ADT works fine.

I tried several solutions, none soleved my problem:
- Switched to official Sun JDK (1.6.0_25)
- Downloaded eclipse instead of using Ubuntu repository
- Defined in ini file "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" flag
- deleted cache folder
- Do not use proxy
- It's not a transport/firewall/antivirus problem

From what I see in "wireshark", eclipse tries to retrieve "content.xml" from the update repositories, this file isn't there and it gives up. For some strange reason it does not try to download the right file - compositeContent.jar.
I found a similar bug occurred only on 64 bit systems, but it was almost a year ago and it appears fixed.

Please help!


Eclipse version:
Version: 3.7.1
Build id: M20110909-1335

Java version:

java version "1.6.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_25-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)

OS Version:

Ubuntu 11.10 - 64 bit

I tried several solutions, none solved my problem:
- Downloaded and Install eclipse new
- Defined in ini file "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" flag
- Deleted cache folder
- Do not use any proxy
- Shutdown Firewall/AntiVirus

I hope somebody can help me.
Thanks a lot.

Starting Eclipse with -vmargs -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true works for me.

With best regards.

I'm having a similar problem as Shaul - "Unable to connect to repository....", except the error message ends "Connection refused" instead of reset....

I've downloaded Eclipse 4.1.1, now trying to do Help > Install New Software, and get that error for all the locations.

Note - this is following instructions that have worked fine in the past, latest time being in early December 2011.

I'm on Linux. I do have a proxy set up (and that should be working; our IT staff isn't around today to verify that, but I don't know of any reason why it should not be working Smile ).

Regards,
Paul

After a long investigation it do appears to be some very strange transport (more accurate to say IT security of our LAN) problem, that appears only on Linux 64bit. Fixed.

Thanks, Shaul. I'm using 32-bit so that wouldn't apply....

Also, I should add that I've read and tried everything in this thread so far, with no success.

UPDATE: Problem solved here as well. It was also a setup issue on my end, specifically needed to use Port 80. (Not sure how 25 got in the mix.... doh!)

Adding -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to the end of the eclipse.ini file worked great Smile
The -vmargs parameter was already there.
Thanks!!!

Hi Paul,
I know it's been over a year since this post but I think I'm having the same problem as you. I'm getting 'Connection refused' rather than 'Connection reset' in my error log. If you can remember this far back, are you able to expand on how you fixed this?

Cheers,
Cameron

Hi, Cameron,

Yes, the key in my case was checking the port and proxy settings under Window / Preferences / General / Network Connections. I had to correct from a wrong port (25; still don't know how that got entered to begin with) to a usable port (80). Specifically, you need to make sure that whatever outgoing port(s) your organization allows, you're using one of those, and enter the settings for any proxy your organization requires.

Regards,
Paul
