    Has anybody else experienced problems installing from the update site ( http://eclipse-cs.sf.net/update/)?

    On new installations of both Ganymede and Galileo, we find:

    • it shows the plugin "m2eclipse Maven Synchronization 0.0.3"
    • it fails with the error message:
      Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
      Software being installed: m2eclipse Maven Synchronization Plugin (Optional/Experimental) 0.0.3 (org.maven.ide.eclipse.checkstyle.feature.group 0.0.3)
      Missing requirement: m2eclipse Maven Synchronization Plugin (Optional/Experimental) 0.0.3 (org.maven.ide.eclipse.checkstyle.feature.group 0.0.3) requires 'net.sf.eclipsecs.feature.group 0.0.0' but it could not be found

    Regards

    Simon

      Hi,
      I'm using Galileo and have downloaded the plug-in as described above but when I try
      to 'Install New Software' I get an error. A message appears,

      'Calculating requirements and dependencies' ....
      and then a 'Problem Occurred' message pops-up saying,

      'Computing size' has encountered a problem.
      An internal error occurred during computing size.

      When I click 'Details >>' it says

      An internal error occurred during: "Computing size".
      Incompatible profile file name.
      Expected format is {timestamp}.profile but was 1245574781069_1.profile.

      And installation fails. Can anyone help me please ?

      Regards,

      Ken

        Nope, sorry - no idea.
        Try hitting the Eclipse newsgroup/forum: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/

        I don't think the eclipse-cs plugin is the cause, rather that something is odd with your eclipse installation.

      Yes, I get exactly the same error on my new-today Galileo install (linux 64-bit), and cannot install the plugin.

      I installed a couple of weeks ago on a separate Galileo installation (linux 32-bit), also from the update site, and that worked fine. I'm fairly sure it was the same 5.0.0-final plugin version.

      Has anything changed in the update site?

      It seems the problems stem from the redirect location to the download mirror, where the redirect URL contains spaces (see previous message).

      So it is indeed Sourceforge's download/mirroring infrastructure which is breaking the update site.
      I'll have a look if a workaround is possible.
