You can install it several ways:

via help-> install software: with this link (recomended)

if this doesn't work, I usually do it to the "Macho man way":

  • 1) Download the zip from here
  • 2) Unzip in somewhere well known to you
  • 3) Go to the folder "dropins" in your eclipse folder
  • 4) past there everything of the plugins folder from the unziped files
  • 5) Don't forget reboot ecipse

  • I'd buy you a beer but since i can't. Take some contribution points instead. :) btw, any ideas why it fails to find the repo? – JordanGS May 13 '17 at 01:40

  • Answering you other question, I had recently the same issue with apache Tomcat, and sooooooometimes it found the site, and sooooometimes it doesn't... and well, one day I had no time with trying, so I download the zip and did it that way – developer_hatch May 13 '17 at 01:43
