Eclipse Network Connection Error during Update
In my previous post, I mentioned a reboot seemed to fix my network connection error when I tried to update. However, the problem was actually that the path length to Eclipse was too long. The folder I copied Eclipse to was this, which resulted in broken updates:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Eclipse-3.3-wpf
However, Eclipse Updates started working when I changed to folder name it to this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\E-3.3-wpf
Weird, huh!?

Hi,
I am facing the same problem and its really really eating my head!!!
I tried the following
1.Run as admin user
2.No my path isnt too long , its something like C:\wtpcomplete\wtp\eclipse\eclipse.exe
3.I am on eclipse 3.3.0
What can be wrong!!??? If I had the money to sue microsoft I wd have done that by now!
The case applies to other software like rapidsvn and tortoiseSvn too. None of the softwares are able to connect !
Figured it out. WINDOWS live one care was blocking all sorts of network activities.Unistalled it and everything started working
