Added Mars update site but 'No updates were found' [message #1700531]

I'm currently using Eclipse Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2) on Win 7 Professional (64 bit).

I'm trying to update to Mars and I've added 'http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars/' as an update site but when hitting 'Check for Updates' I'm just getting 'No updates were found'.

I've tried closing and re-opening Eclipse, and reloading the update site, but no change.

Any ideas what the problem is?

This can be caused by additional software that you had installed into your Luna IDE. Can you please show us a screenshot
of your Installed Software dialog?

I've tried it with a fresh Luna SR2 IDE (for Java Developers, no other software installed) and it properly updates to
Mars after I added http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars .

Cheers

Okay, that explains it. The "epp.package.standard" product is discontinued after Luna, so you can't update that IDE.
It's odd but please install a new one.

Ok, so I need to do a fresh install of Eclipse Mars. Maybe I should try the new installer?!
