Answer 1

Hi I had the same problem just yesterday. I was uploading SDK for android and found your question in a google search.

I reverted back to an older version of eclipse. Link to older version of eclipse

This solved it for me.

Remember to delete eclips from your program files. You do this by just physically deleting the file from program files (not through uninstall). Then also make sure you delete your workbench. This is a file called workbench in your docs. Well mine was in my docs, it could be somewhere else on your system.

I am using windows 7.

Best of luck.

Answer 2

In my case, updating to the latest version of Eclipse (Juno) did the trick. Perhaps your add-on won't run on your version?

Answer 3

I had the same problem, and I solved it by setting

"Contact all update sites during install to find required software"

to true.

(I used the Eclipse install manager, in Eclipse IDE for Java Developers, Version: Indigo Service Release 1 )
