Where can I get the update site for Spring tool suite

Question

Actually I am trying to install spring tool suit for eclipse Kepler(4.3) from eclipse marketplace but I am getting the following error

communication with repository at http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.3 failed

Is there any other repository from where I can install STS(Spring Tool Suite)

Thanks and Regards Vishal

Check out this url. If it doesn't work (AccessDenied) then you have network problems.

If it works it's OK; the STS will work by giving this URL: http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/3.4.0.RELEASE/e4.3/

(Help -> Install new software -> work with : the URL here)

BTW, it took me 5 days of searching :-)

You will find here: https://spring.io/tools/sts/all the installation version of the integrated eclipse STS, along with both eclipse update site urls, and archived version it.

Previous Spring Tool Suite versions are also referenced.

Nowadays all update sites are mentioned at https://github.com/spring-projects/sts4/wiki/Installation. Note it's STS 4 only. Not sure where to find up-do-date STS 3 update sites, although I know this one is still working: https://download.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/3.9.12.RELEASE/e4.15/

In general, this page is still working and lists all STS 3 releases: https://dist.springsource.com/release/STS/index.html The correct update site URL can be crafted by looking into full dist URLs - the aforementioned one still looks to be the latest.
