[solved] Trouble installing android SDK and eclipse plugin

Hi !

Owner of an HTC hero, I would like to develop some apps for it. However, I have problems to install the android eclipse plugin on my archs (a 32 and a 64 bits) while it is working fine on my roommate's ubuntu...

I'm following these instructions : http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html

At step 3, when I click OK in order to add the site, just nothing happens, the pop up stays displayed and I can still clic on the bottons, (but only "cancel" do something...) . I've tried to start eclipse from the console, but no output here

Why do you think this happens ?

I have also problem with the sdk tools :
when I try to view the available packages il get :

Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repos … sitory.xml, reason: HTTPS SSL error. You might want to force download through HTTP in the settings.

(even if I ask to use HTTP insted of HTTPS)

Have you already got this problem?

Thanks,

Fredszaq (from France, escuse english mistakes...)

Bump !

I've managed to add the site to the "available software sites" in eclipse, but I can't see any pakages to download, I think this is due to a connection problem. But why eclise (and google "android" tool BTW) can't connect to the requiered site? Is there something to activate to make SSL connections work?

Help  please !

the major tip was to resize the windows when notings seems to happen ant to "clik" on the buttons with the enter key ...

I had the same problem and just gave up. Yeah I'm lazy.
Good to see you found a solution. If I can be bothered, I'll look into it again.
