I tried to install Eclipse (2021-03) but got the following errors:

Adding repository http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/updates/milestone/latest
ERROR: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.transport.ecf code=1002 HTTP Proxy Authentication Required: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.xml

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:63)

Took 1 seconds.
There are failed tasks.
Press Back to choose different settings or Cancel to abort.

I am not sure whether it causes by the missing page.
Please reference the following details:

The required page http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.xml is not exist.
Only the following one is available:
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.xml.xz

The p2 framework will look for both https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.jar and https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.xml. It does look for http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/content.xml.xz first as directed by the resource https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-03/202103171000/p2.index but if there firewall issues it won't find/load any of these files and it ends up complaining about the content.xml even though it's tried content.xml.xz, content.jar, and content.xml all of which failed.

You can switch to Advanced Mode via the menu in the upper right, and then can access the Network Settings dialog via the buttons at the bottom. From the failure about proxy authentication it appears you need to configure something there to make the update sites accessible.

If you can't get that to work, you can always download a package from https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/ but you'll most likely have trouble updating it or installing addition features in it for the same reason as the installer is failing to access update sites.
