Error when installing PyDev plugin for Eclipse

When trying to install PyDev on eclipse I get the following error message:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was: (profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
Unable to read repository at http://pydev.org/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev_2.6.0.2012062818.jar.
Read timed out
Unable to read repository at http://pydev.org/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev.jython_2.6.0.2012062818.jar.
Read timed out

I don't know what that means, can someone elaborate please?
Thanks.

Just that Eclipse can't reach the site to fetch that JAR. You can check it manually by entering the name into the browser address bar:

http://pydev.org/updates/plugins/org.python.pydev_2.6.0.2012062818.jar

Possible causes:

  • server overload
  • DNS failure
  • company firewall refusing to download (had this happen to me)
  • connectivity problems
