Help on Force.com IDE Installation for Eclipse 3.3.x

Hi

    I am facing problem in installing Force.com IDE for Eclipse 3.3.x .

As per steps mentioned for  Force.com IDE Installation for Eclipse 3.3.x

I am facing problem at step 3 which is

Add the Force.com IDE Remote Site:

1. Launch Eclipse, and then click Help > Software Updates > Find and Install.

2. Select "Search for new features to install" and click "Next".

3. Add the Force.com IDE Remote Site:
  • Click "New Remote Site". The New Update Site dialog opens.
  • Set the Name to "Force.com IDE" and the URL to "Link: ", then click OK.
  • Select “Europa Discovery Site” and "Automatically select mirrors”, then click “Finish”. Eclipse will search the selected sites for the required plugins.
here at "Link:" =  "http://www.adnsandbox.com/eclipsetoolkit/release" link nothing is there except a redirection link to Force.com IDE Installation for Eclipse 3.3.x  is there

thats why Eclipse Update Manager is showing error as follow :

Network connection problems encountered during search.


  Unable to access "http://download.eclipse.org/releases/europa".
    Error parsing site stream. [Premature end of file.]
    Premature end of file.

Can anybody help me to get Force.com paltform installed.

Thanking in advance.

the update location looks like a link that you may visit, but it is not.

it is the address you must paste into the dialog box to specify the remote site used by eclipse at install time.

Hi Ron,

       Thanks for the feedback.

Actually I am pasting the address ( http://www.adnsandbox.com/eclipsetoolkit/release) in the dialog box againts URL text box.

And during the searching process after finish is clicked I got the problem as:

   Network connection problems encountered during search.
 
 Unable to access "http://www.adnsandbox.com/eclipsetoolkit/release/".
    Error parsing site stream. [Premature end of file.]

i've not seen this problem before, not sure what could cause this to fail in your install.

Hi,
 
Yep, adding my internet connection details to Eclipse sorted the problem.
