I am trying to start Android Development and trying to do so using the ADT plugin in my Eclipse Mars(Windows 10)
I have installed the ADT plugin in my eclipse version 23.0.7.2120684.
Also I have downloaded the SDK tools(tools_r25.2.3-windows) and extracted it to D:/eclipse\SDK.
But everytime I open Eclipse and click on Windows->Preferences ->and enter the SDK Location as D:/eclipse\SDK which is the SDK folder I am getting the below error:
The Android SDK requires the new Build Tools component to be installed.
Please open the SDK Manager and install "Android SDK Build-tools"
I click on Open SDK Manager and nothing happens, but I get an error message in the console:
[2017-04-10 22:56:35 - SDK Manager] [SDK Manager] Error: Expected verb after global parameters but found 'sdk' instead.
Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong here. Most of the installation guides/steps found on the net are a bit redundant since they are quite old.
As of Android SDK Tools Revision 25.3.0 removes obsolete/deprecated tools, see Release Notes, and as ADT plugin is no longer supported it cannot work with it.
However revision 25.2.3 should be working. If you still want to use Eclipse try to look at Eclipse Neon for Android Developers.
Eclipse no longer supports Android Application Development. Announcement here.
You might install Android Studio or Intellij Idea to create android apps using java.
I tried to install adt 23.3.0 in eclipse 3.7 offline,
I download ADT-22.3.0.zip(I found that the ZIP file is not damaged) and i went to HELP->INSTALL NEW SOFTWARS clicked add and then chosed the zip file and i get this error message:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Development Tools 22.3.0.v201310242005-887826

I have no idea how to fix it.
My advice is to use the Android Studio, I've noticed much difference with Eclipse and worth, here I share a link for you, to download it easier.
Windows:

I am trying to add plugin android ADT for eclipse.
I've followed the steps given here
But when I am trying to install available softwares its giving error like
"The Operation cannot be completed. see the details."
in the details the following error is getting displayed.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Development Tools 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534)

I am getting same error even if I downloaded the ADT-16.0.1.zip and given the local archive path.
I am using Eclipse Gelelio.
The problem is that you use an old version of Eclipse (Galileo) 3.5.x. There is a requirement in Android SDK that you should use Eclipse 3.6 minimum (Helios). So you have to install at first new version of Eclipse.
I faced with the same problem when I was using Ubuntu 10.04 because by default from the repository it installs Eclipse Galileo.
You are facing an Eclipse bug/issue. You need to following workaround (also mentioned here)
Select Help > Install New Software... Click the link for Available> Software Sites.
Ensure there is an update site named Galileo. If this is not present, click Add
Enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo for the Location
Now go through the installation steps, Eclipse should download and install the plugin's dependencies.
Which android sdk should be downloaded with eclipse galileo 3.5 version. and what ADT Plugin should be installed? i downloaded android sdk 1.6 and initially installed adt 0.7 plugin but it said adt needs to be updated. but now when im trying to update the adt to 16 it shoes the following error:
Your original request has been modified.
"Android Development Tools" is already installed, so an update will be performed instead.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
you can see ADT 16.0.0+ requires Eclipse Helios (Version 3.6), so I think you need ADT 15.0.1
Doing a quick search i found this:
how to install android sdk on eclipse 3.5
You download the SDK for your OS.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
If you use windows, I recommend the exe file for you.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
You can download the Android SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/
index.html.
Once the SDK is downloaded, unzip its content (the android-sdk-windows folder)
into the C:\Android\ folder, or whatever name you have given to the folder you just
created.
Once Eclipse is up and running, select the Help >> Install New Software
In the Install window that appears, type http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse in the text and click Add
You may reinstall the eclipse by the following steps
Install jre7 with Netbeans
install eclipse
install ADT
in the step 3, you are asked to install Android SDK version by which package. click the top option
I am trying to install the ADT Plugin. I go to Help install new software in eclipse and then after selecting the development tool I get this error
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Traceview 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.traceview.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534)
Missing requirement: Android Traceview 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.traceview.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534) requires 'org.eclipse.ui 3.6.2' but it could not be found
EDIT
I have eclipse 3.5.2
I did not found any solution for this. But instead of using eclipse installed with
sudo apt-get install eclipse
I downloaded it from a web page and I start that (the downloaded) eclipse, and with that version it works just fine
You need to install GEF and WST first.
GEF Update Site : http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/updates/releases/ (dead)
WST Update Site : http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo
I had the same problem, run eclipse as administrator and try to instal ADT plugin again, it works.
There seems to be some version mismatch. Are you using eclipse 3.6.2 or older version?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html mentions that ADT 16.0.1 requires eclipse version 3.6 and higher.
Also, just check if you have installed/updated the latest android SDK before updating the adt. That might help in your case.
In case you can't upgrade your Eclipse (like me). Use this as a local archive to install ADT 15.0.0 which supports Eclipse 3.5.
http://dl.google.com/android/ADT-15.0.0.zip
I found that using a 64bit version of eclipsed gave me that error! Try using the 32bit version and see if that fixes it! =)
i had the same problem.
I solved it by open the eclipse in the console with: sudo eclipse
you just need Ecplise Helios
ADT 16.0.1 (December 2011)
Dependencies:
Eclipse Helios (Version 3.6) or higher is required for ADT 16.0.1.
ADT 16.0.1 is designed for use with SDK Tools r16. If you haven't already installed SDK Tools r16 into your SDK, use the Android SDK Manager to do so.

On Ubuntu 11.10,
I downloaded Eclipse using sudo apt-get install eclipse
Installed Android SDK
Installed ADT PLugin in Eclipse (Eclipse must be started with sudo otherwise you will get error as mentioned by lukap)
there is an easy solution for it just select option all available sites .. in the work with.. space and select the android packages you want to install
In windows 7, choose 'Run as Administrator' when opening eclipse. This gives eclipse the permissions it needs, and should eliminate the error. This worked for the 64-bit program.
I had similar problems, trying to install ADT plugin, but not exactly the same.
I fixed it by going to Help > Check For Updates, and just installed current updates available, restarted Eclipse, and then tried installing ADT plugin again, and it worked just fine.
I was using eclipse (helios version 3.6.2) and tried to install android SDK but i failed with abovee mentioned error.
I found the solution for this issue.
Select the "Available software sites" list
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios/201102250900 (Helios) and http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios (Helios Milestone Repository)
If using galileo select the appropriate release line from avail sw site list.
'Check for Updates' (to get the Helios updates), then install the plugin.
for native install (tested on xubuntu) - please view video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCNC34BflOo&feature=player_embedded#!
shortly:
1) run eclipse from
root-> help -> install new software -> add
name: update(S), url: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo (for 3.7.x, juno for 4.2.x)
or select in menu "work with" if path exist
2) select 'linux development'
install, all warnig/error pakages make off
3) install ADT Plugin
after install restart eclipse and select path-to-android-sdk
4) Tape (Write) bug to our linux distributive vendor :)
Enjoy!
PS Separate install - good idea :)
