    Hi, thanks for reporting. These issue appears to be an aftermath of the recent sourceforge outage. Unfortunately I am not able to solve it myself.

    I've filed the issue with sourceforge support, but I have no idea when they will be able to react, since they probably have other priorities right now.
    For reference please see my support request to SF: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/10938/

    Thanks Lars, lets hope they fix this soon. Is there an alternative way to get 6.8.0?

    I've uploaded the update site archive to the project website as a temporary measure:
    eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net/net.sf.eclipsecs-updatesite_6.8.0.201507251301-bin.zip

    Additionally I've also uploaded the whole update site (including binaries) to the project website as well, so update site/eclipse market place functionality is restored for the time being.

    It's not exactly permitted as per the sourceforge site rules to serve binaries from the web space, but I guess until the file release/download infrastructure is fixed they won't take an issue.

    Lars, thanks for providing the archive. Unfortunately, some use cases do require an online update site and cannot work with a local archive (e.g. Eclipse Setup via Oomph), and remote archives do not seem to work at all.

    For this reason, I've created a GitHub repo which can be used as online update site:

    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hwellmann/eclipse-checkstyle-updatesite/master/6.8.0/

    Anyone landing here, feel free to use it until the SourceForge issue is fixed.

    Just for info, everybody - downloads and update site should now be working in fully capacity again.
