I'm getting 'Access denied' from all update sites about eclipse-integration-gradle HOT 9 CLOSED

Eclipse tries to access various extensions of the base update site URL (like content.xml, for example). Usually Eclipse should recognize that this resource doesn't exist and try the next possibility. In the case of the Gradle update site it should succeed to access http://dist.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/gradle/compositeContent.xml, for example. So something on the network level doesn't seem to work between your machine and our update site... :-( Can you try to put this update site URL into Eclipse instead: http://download.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/gradle/ ? Sometimes this helps. Other problems could be caused by virus scanners or proxy servers in between.

The update site URLs can be used by putting them into the "install new software" dialog in Eclipse. They don't serve anything when accessed with a browser.

Well I tried that first, I pasted it into a browser to check if they exist at all and got the access denied. Here is the error I get from eclipse:

Unable to read repository at http://dist.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/gradle/content.xml.
Unable to read repository at http://dist.springsource.com/milestone/TOOLS/gradle/content.xml.

Yes, that one works, I'm installing now. I'm using Eclipse Kepler, maybe something broke there?

Looks like I was too fast, it was just calculating dependencies for a very long time and then aborts with:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

Can you try selecting just the Gradle IDE feature for installation. I'm not sure why you are having trouble with those dependencies they should be on the update site. However, if you install just 'Gradle IDE' feature those dependencies are not needed. They are pulled in by the dashboard and UAA components which are optional and you don't really need them to use the gradle tooling.

from eclipse-integration-gradle.

Update: I just tried installing from the milestone site into a brand-new Eclipse 4.3 classic.

I get a similar error as you report if I select everything under "Extensions / Gradle Integration". If I select only "Gradle IDE" then it installs ok.

So it seems something is indeed missing on that update site to satisfy dependencies for the Dashboard and/or UAA. I'll look into it a bit more.

But as suggested before, you probably don't really need them.

The actual error I get is this:

Can't really go back in time and fix milestone release. But I'll figure out and fix the nightly update site. It seems to have similar problems with missing dependencies for UAA and Dashboard.
