Android > Unknown Host Errors while installing ADT plugin in eclipse

Question

I am trying to setup development environment for Android development. While adding Android ADT plugin in eclipse, I get following error:

Fetching https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list-1.xml Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list-1.xml, reason: Unknown Host dl-ssl.google.com Fetched Add-ons List successfully Fetching URL: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml, reason: dl-ssl.google.com Done loading packages.

Could someone guide me easily that how to get rid of this error?

The "Unknown Host" error message sounds like a DNS or internet connection problem, but it could also be server side issues. Possible duplicate of http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9010375/android-sdk-installation-issue-peer-not-authenticated/9026997 — Danilo Bargen, Jan 26 '12 at 23:27
No, not a duplicate of that - this is a DNS failure, that is an authentication failure. — Chris Stratton, Apr 08 '15 at 14:36

I had the same problem.
In the Tools>Options menu in Android SDK Manager, I set the HTTP Proxy Server and HTTP Proxy Port values (I used the same settings that for my internet browser).
That fixed the problem for me !

No, I mean in the SDK Manager. – C.d. Jan 27 '12 at 21:05
Ubuntu's Android SDK manager does not have the Tools component. – Abhishek Susarla Mar 21 '13 at 11:41
I'm not sure if it did earlier, but it does now. – Kasisnu Nov 16 '13 at 07:17

You may be having the problem cause you are on a network where Proxy server and proxy ports are used for intercommunication between devices. Set the appropriate proxy server and port number in Tools -> Options. If its still not working then go for Force https://... sources to be fetched using http://
