Android ADT Connection Issues

Question

I had this problem when I try to complete the ADT plugin step and need help.

The error is as follows:

Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency. Software being installed: Android Development Tools 15.0.1.v201111031820-219398 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 15.0.1.v201111031820-219398) Software currently installed: Eclipse SDK 3.7.1.M20110909-1335 (org.eclipse.sdk.ide 3.7.1.M20110909-1335) Only one of the following can be installed at once: International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.4.2.v20110208 (com.ibm.icu 4.4.2.v20110208) International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.0.1.v20090822 (com.ibm.icu 4.0.1.v20090822) International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.0.1.v20090415 (com.ibm.icu 4.0.1.v20090415) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Android Development Tools 15.0.1.v201111031820-219398 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 15.0.1.v201111031820-219398) To: org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui 0.0.0 Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Java EMF Model Utilities 2.0.200.v200905140200 (org.eclipse.jem.util 2.0.200.v200905140200) To: bundle com.ibm.icu [3.8.1.1,4.1.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Java EMF Model Utilities 2.0.201.v201001252130 (org.eclipse.jem.util 2.0.201.v201001252130) To: bundle com.ibm.icu [3.8.1.1,4.1.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Eclipse Platform 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK (org.eclipse.platform.feature.group 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK) To: org.eclipse.rcp.feature.group [3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9DB5FmNFnFLSFCtLxnRfMqt15A4A] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Eclipse RCP 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9DB5FmNFnFLSFCtLxnRfMqt15A4A (org.eclipse.rcp.feature.group 3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9DB5FmNFnFLSFCtLxnRfMqt15A4A) To: com.ibm.icu [4.4.2.v20110208] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Eclipse Project SDK 3.7.1.r37x_v20110728-7Q7xAEDDePtVvBAYYD3z-il0ox7CoGe6mz-B8FDdVn0YR (org.eclipse.sdk.feature.group 3.7.1.r37x_v20110728-7Q7xAEDDePtVvBAYYD3z-il0ox7CoGe6mz-B8FDdVn0YR) To: org.eclipse.platform.feature.group [3.7.1.r37x_v20110729-9gF7UHOxFtniV7mI3T556iZN9AU8bEZ1lHMcVK] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Eclipse SDK 3.7.1.M20110909-1335 (org.eclipse.sdk.ide 3.7.1.M20110909-1335) To: org.eclipse.sdk.feature.group [3.7.1.r37x_v20110728-7Q7xAEDDePtVvBAYYD3z-il0ox7CoGe6mz-B8FDdVn0YR] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Common Frameworks 1.1.300.v200904160730 (org.eclipse.wst.common.frameworks 1.1.300.v200904160730) To: bundle org.eclipse.jem.util [2.0.100,3.0.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Structured Source Editor 1.1.101.v200908261807 (org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui 1.1.101.v200908261807) To: bundle org.eclipse.wst.validation [1.2.0,1.3.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Structured Source Editor 1.1.102.v200910200227 (org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui 1.1.102.v200910200227) To: bundle org.eclipse.wst.validation [1.2.0,1.3.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Validation Framework 1.2.102.v200905201610 (org.eclipse.wst.validation 1.2.102.v200905201610) To: bundle org.eclipse.wst.common.frameworks [1.1.200,2.0.0) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Validation Framework 1.2.104.v200911120201 (org.eclipse.wst.validation 1.2.104.v200911120201) To: bundle org.eclipse.wst.common.frameworks [1.1.200,2.0.0) 

Answer 1

Ideally, I would suggest downloading a lower version of eclipse (below 3.7). But 3.7 is working fine.

If you just configure your Android sdk file now ... you should not get this problem.

if you update your android environment via

you can follow these steps

help> check for updates

and accept the terms and install updates.

remove the adt plug-in and reinstall it, as suggested on the developer's site: http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html

he will now install eclipse with Android tools like DDMS, etc. (version 15.0 ....)

which should solve your problem.

Answer 2

I had the same problem today, although the ADT versions were 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 and the Eclipse SDK 3.7.2.M20120208-0800 (Indigo)

International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.4.2.v20110823 ... International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.0.1.v20090822 ... International Components for Unicode for Java (ICU4J) 4.4.2.v20090415 .. .

OS: Windows Vista 32 bit

What decided for me was that my account had full access rights to the folders where eclipse was installed, after which it was installed without passes.

Answer 3

I just downloaded the latest version of the Eclipse IDE for Java EE developers and installed Android packages from http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse

I had the same error before, I used the old version of the IDE with the newer version of the Android SDK, so this was a conflict.

Answer 4

As others have already noted here, this is a permission issue. Try changing the ownership of the eclipse installation to chown :

$ sudo chown -R root:$(id -g -n $(whoami)) /path/for/eclipse/stuff/

where the expression $(id -g -n $(whoami)) returns your main group. From there, I hope you will have permissions for everything you need. It worked for me, but I'm not an expert.

EDIT :
Another possible reason for this is creating a workspace on another computer or installing Eclipse. Different computers and / or different Eclipse installations may use different versions of plugins and JREs, which leads to all problems.

However, even if your workspace was not initialized with another Eclipse installation, try installing the plugin in a new temporary workspace.

And for the record, I found running Eclipse as root ( sudo eclipse ) as a terrible idea. Almost nothing works - from downloading to installing new plugins - when I tried it.
