Can't install PyDev for Eclipse Indigo

Question

I have problem with installation of PyDev in Eclipse Indigo. I used Help -> Install new software -> and http://pydev.org/updates repository. I try it for 3 days yet but it is still not work. First, I got error: unabled to read repository.

Today, repository was found but during installation of package I got error:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=epp.package.java, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=). Unable to read repository at http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev_2.2.2.2011082312.jar. Read timed out Unable to read repository at http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev.debug_2.2.2.2011082312.jar. Read timed out Unable to read repository at http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev.jython_2.2.2.2011082312.jar. Read timed out

It seems like the repository is out of order. Does somebody know, what to do? Thanks!

Solution 1

Just checked and it seems to be working. As a note, a new PyDev release is available (2.2.3).

If it still doesn't work for you, you can try the zip release (see: http://pydev.org/download.html for instructions on getting/installing it).

Solution 2

use http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates/site.xml

This URL worked like a charm. If I use the recommended URL from the PyDev.org website, my installation of eclipse runs into server timeout issues.

This link works for me time and time again while the official link continues to fail to work. What's the deal?

Can you bring the most relevant code to this answer. When the link goes dead the answer becomes useless and when I follow that link I have to dig through your repository to understand what I need to do. This Q/A pair is listed here. The question is not close-worthy so I rather salvage the answer.

thanks. This is the only solution for me to install pydev
