I'm installing the Force.com plugin for Eclipse but received the error below. I'm using Eclipse 4.2 and I received the same error with 4.3. I tried using an older version of Eclipse, 3.6, but the installation continuously timed out after reaching 10% completion.

Here are the application and error details:

  • Windows 7
  • 64-bit
  • jdk 1.7
  • jre 7
  • Eclipse 4.2 Juno
  • Force.com v29.0

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

Eclipse 4.2 “Juno” and 4.3 "Kepler" are the most recently supported version of Eclipse.

    well actually 4.2 and 4.3 are also supported with the winter 14 version. I have installed it on Friday wiki.developerforce.com/page/Force.com_IDE

  • 2 items from above link mentioned by @ManosSpanoudakis 1. Added support for version 4.2 “Juno” and 4.3 "Kepler" 2. Dropped support for version 3.x

  • Thats why 3.6 is no more supported from Winter 14.

    Found the solution. This is more of an Eclipse error, whereby eclipse was trying to use IPv6 to connect. See details here: flintstudio.com/blog/…. Simply adding "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" to eclipse.ini fixed it.

Try downloading Eclipse classic Standard/SDK and update to salesforce plugin with http://media.developerforce.com/force-ide/eclipse42. It worked for me. Once you updated with the force.com plugin, you can later update the eclipse sdk to the latest version if needed.
