Unable to install Subversive connectors (SVN) on Eclipse Neon

I installed the new Eclipse Neon, then added the Subversive plugIn (for SVN) but have strange issue to add SVN connectors.

What I do:
1. Window -> Preference -> Team -> SVN.
2. On the "SVN Connector" tab I click on "Get Connectors...".
3. Checking the box for "SVN Kit 1.8.12" and click "finish" (tried also checking Native JavaHL instead).
4. On the new window, I leave both connectors checked and click on "next" and then on "Finish" ("Subversive SVN Connectors" and "SVNKit 1.8.12 Implementation (Optional))".

After 1 second I got the following error message:

'Installing Software' has encountered a problem. An error occured while collecting items to be installed.

Details:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=C__Users_michaels_eclipse_java-neon_eclipse, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=). No artifact repository available. noArtifactRepositoriesAvailable

I tried to add/remove update sites but it didn't help.

Someone familiar with this issue? Should I install other Eclipse (Luna?)

Thanks in advance!
Mike

I had the same problem today. To install subversive on Neon (at the time of writing neon-3):

  1. Select Help > Install New Software
  2. In the Work With field enter: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon
  3. In the Filter Text field enter: svn
  4. Install the software as usual and restart.
  5. When Eclipse restarts, open Window > Preferences.
  6. Select Team > SVN and you should be prompted to download the SVN Connectors (SVNKit 1.8.14 worked for me). Install as usual and restart. Now Subversive should work.

Have you tried doing the same process on another fresh Eclipse Neon installation? I've had problems with this and the only way I found to make it work was a fresh install from a new Eclipse.

If nothing else works, try Eclipse Mars, I use it at work with Subversive and it works great.
