You get the error if you are trying to update an Eclipse/RCP application running from within Eclipse (Run or Debug).

If this is the case, have a look in the launch configuration. On the "Configuration" tab, you can find a setting "Support software installation in the launched application". Check this :-)

Are you on Mac? This bug thread on eclipse discussed a similar issue https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=305758

It was to do with the unarchiver app on Mac.
