Question

I am having a really hard time installing ADT 9.0.0 for Eclipse (plain jane)
3.6.1 on OSX 10.6.6

Here is what I’ve done:

1. Installed Eclipse 3.6.1 to /Applications/eclipse
2. Updated Eclipse
3. Installed latest Android SDK to /Developer/SDKs/androidSDK
4. Ran “tools/android update sdk” – updated to latest a-ok
5. Followed instructions on official site to install ADT
6. Installing gets stuck on the following url:
   http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?format=xmlfile=/releases/helios/201006230900/aggregate/protocol=httpcountryCode=ustimeZone=-5format=xml

I have tried with older versions of Eclipse and run into the same
issue.

It seems like the URL above works if you insert query string seperators:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?format=xmlfile=/releases/helios/201006230900/aggregate/?protocol=&httpcountryCode=&ustimeZone=-5&format=xml

To confirm I am not bats$%t insane, I did find someone else who has exactly the same issue, no responses to his query though.

Thanks for any help.

FYI.. I had this exact problem that occurred only on our company server. I was stalled on the exact url you mention above. The admin modified the firewall intrusion detection and the install took-off and completed successfully. Good luck!
