Hi everyone,

After doing some research into it I did not find a solution and I finally decided to make an issue out of it on here. The issue is two-fold. I have Eclipse Mars 4.5.2 and I was attempting to install WindowBuilder. However, when I attempt to install it, after clicking on the agreement and hitting finish, it errors out showing this: 

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=C__eclipse_java-mars_eclipse, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
No repository found containing: osgi.bundle,javax.mail.glassfish,1.4.1.v201005082020
No repository found containing: osgi.bundle,org.eclipse.net4j.jms.api,3.0.0.v20110215-1551

I have attempted to figure out how to get the missing repositories back however, I am relatively new to the Eclipse env and I am struggling.

The second part that I noticed was an error when trying to do a general "check for updates", where it errors out showing

JDT Core patch for Groovy-Eclipse plugin" is not applicable to the current configuration and will not be installed.

With regards to that second part I figured if it is not applicable to the current configuration I am running I would attempt to uninstall it but I have yet to ascertain how exactly to do that. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks

Moving to the Equinox/p2 team so they can provide more information about the error you received.

Thank you, I was slightly unsure if I placed the bug in the right place. Appreciated.

This is more likely caused by a misconfigured repository:
