ECLIPSE: can't download new software, stays stuck in 'pending...'

Question

using Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo)

I know there are similar questions (out-dated by the way) but none can solve my problem i go to HELP -> Install New Software -> Work With

and select

Indigo - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo

and it keeps saying 'Pending...'

Any ideas?? i'd be VERY grateful

:D

EDIT: by the way, nothing on the error log

Answer 1

Go to "Preferences"->"Install/Update"->"Available Software Sites" and uncheck all except "Indigo". Then try again. I think eclipse gets updates from all sites before it gets through "Pending..."-stage.

Then re-check items until you find the one that causes it to jam.
