Eclipse plugin can't be installed directly from weblink

My plugin has the form of a zip file and is located at http://scg.unibe.ch/wiki/projects/DoodleDebug/DoodleDebug-update-site?view=PRDownloadView. Downloading and installing it from a local file works perfectly nice. However, if I paste the URL into Eclipse's dialog, it says something like "no repository found".

Is Eclipse unable to handle zip plugins directly from the web?

You'll need to host the update site on a web server. The content is static. Then have your users add the update site URL to the software site list.
