I'm trying to install the Android SDK tools on my Windows XP SP3. I have jdk1.5.0_06 installed, but the Android SDK setup refuses to with the error in the following image. This happes in the next screen after detecting the JDK instalation.
Is this a known issue? And is there a solution?
Not sure about what the error is. But strongly recommend that you go with JDK 1.6.x version or 1.7x for Android development.
download the installer again & see if it solves the issue. Before installing Android SDK, make sure you have jdk installed on your system. Alternatively you can install eclipse adt plugin & it will automatically install the Android SDK for you. Installing the Eclipse Plugin
I want to install Android SDK on Eclipse Classic Indigo (Version: 3.7.1 Build id: M20110909-1335) Windows 7 32 bit.
On adding ADT plugin to in software update I got following some dependency error.
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 consulted some blogs and found that I have to update my Eclipse. Following two sources are there in Eclipse.
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.7
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
But their download is also broken. They try to dowload content.jar file which is not there.
Any hand how to solve this problem? Or I should use some other version of Eclipse?
Thanks
I was running a proxy program (UltraSurf). I closed the application and re-tried and that solves my installation problem.
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

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.

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 :)
I have installed the plugin many times before, but this time I keep getting this error:
'Install' has encountered a problem
An error occurred while installing the items
Eclipse has some memory issues when running on my machine, so I just want to install the bare minimum plugins, etc.
Has anyone got any ideas how to get around this error?
SOLVED
I had the wrong version of Eclipse installed. I just installed the version from the Ubuntu software center and it didn't work, do I uninstalled it and downloaded the Java EE version from Eclipse's website and now it works.
Go to Window -> preference -> Install/update
There update the plugin package ... the one responsible for installing ADT.
Worked for me atleast.

I am using Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo), and I'm trying to install ADT plugin from remote as well as local archive.
It is not installing.
I am getting the following error for both remote as well local:
Android Development Tools 0.9.5.v200911191123-20404 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 0.9.5.v200911191123-20404)

How do I solve this?
Thanks in Advance
You'll need to install the eclipse graphical editing framework. You can install directly from within eclipse using the release site
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/updates/releases/
I just went through the experience of installing the Android SDK and ADT Plugin. Below is a link to how to setup the ADT Plug-in.

The simplest solution is to install eclipse INDIGO version, That contains every requirements you met. Good luck.
Something I have to say is: INDIGO is much more faster than galileo!! So upgrade it without hesitate!
