I am trying to install Android SDK and ADT Plugiun for Eclipse 3.7 and Ubuntu 11.10.

1. I have downloaded android-sdk_r15-linux.tgz and unpacked it to /home/user/android-sdk-linux
2. I navigated to /home/user/android-sdk-linux/tools and ran android in the terminal as mentioned here Step 4
3. Then I have downloaded all the Platform and other components.

4. I went in to Eclipse and Help -> Install New Software and added the site Google Android - successfully and checked the Developer Tools and when I do that here is what I get:

   Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
   Software being installed: Android Development Tools 15.0.0.v201110251216-213216 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 15.0.0.v201110251216-213216)
   Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 15.0.0.v201110251216-213216 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 15.0.0.v201110251216-213216) requires 'org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found

I have installed this before on Ubuntu 10.04 and it worked fine. Am I missing something.

P.S. When I go into Eclipse and go to Window -> Preferences I do not see Android as an option on the left side with other options which confuses me.

Do I need to do something else with the tar.gz file that I downloaded from developer.android.com?

Go to Eclipse ... choose Help > Check for Updates and select any updates for the eclipse platform.... Try installing the ADT plugin again... Worked for me.

Answer 4

I had this problem earlier this week. I did lots of different things, such as uninstalling and reinstalling, added all sorts of other things to the install software section

Try adding this to the Install software.
