installing freemarker plugin on eclipse indigo

I was tryi ng to install the freemarker plugin for eclipse Indigo on my machine which runs on Ubuntu 11. I tried to add http://www.freemarker.org/eclipse/update with the name FreeMarker to install new softwares option. But, it complained that there were no repositories. Then, IO manually tried to download the plugin file (freemarker-2.3.19.tar.gz) from http://sourceforge.net/projects/freemarker and tried to copy the contents to /usr/share/eclipse/plugins folder. But, it rejected it complaining that the format of the file contents were incompatible. Can anyone please help me with this issue. Thanks in advance.!

What I finally did is, I downloaded Eclipse Indigo for Java EE from Eclipse official website. It had the market place from where I could easily install the JBoss plugin. All I had to do is install it from within Eclipse and could work on freemarker after that.

You should use the FreeMarker plugin in the JBoss Tools Project, as http://freemarker.org/editors.html says. Where did you get the link to the old plugin? (Also, freemarker-2.3.19.tar.gz is the FreeMarker distribution, and has nothing to do with Eclipse.)
