I need help with installing Eclipse IDE for Java developers. [message #1827141]

Thu, 07 May 2020 19:24

Eclipse User

I have tried installing Eclipse but every time I get the a red text box at the top of my screen that states, "installation failed with an error. Show log." I looked through these forums for the solution to this problem but everything I found didn't work. Majority of the solutions were for you to go into your bundle pool and fix any corrupted Artifacts. However when I try to do that there are no artifacts for me to repair. If anyone can help me that would be highly appreciated. Also, here is the error log that shows up if you click on show log in the error message.

Does it consistently fail this same way?

It sounds a bit like this:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16373906/address-family-not-supported-by-protocol-family-socketexception-on-a-specific

But given the other repos loaded, it's kind of strange. It should fail with a 404 for that file and later it should find this one:

It's better to ask on the BIRT forum:

I clicked that link and looked at it for some time and found a command prompt that fixed the problem. Thank you so much for this I have been wanting to learn Java for so long now and with quarantine I thought this would be the prefect time. I don't know how to thank you for this.

I'd almost wonder if the frontend proxy isn't handling the .xz files properly/transparently.
