I was attempting to install the Google Plugin for Eclipse and the SDKs for Google App Engine and Google Web Toolkit today when I came across the emblazoned error mentioned in the title of this blog.
In Eclipse, I am using Helios (version 3.6) on my main PC. I forgot this, and thought I had Eclipse Indigo installed (version 3.7), which I do on another PC. In doing so, and attempting to install new software from 'Help -> Install New Software...', for the site to work with, I inadvertently selected:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7
which gave the error:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.Software being installed: Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.7 2.3.2.r37v201106211634
This was simply resolved by going back and changing the site to:
http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.6
Then selecting the required components and clicking Next.
Problem solved. Short post, but it hopefully may help someone out there who encounters this.
thanks, i had the same error, but solved it by setting eclipse to 'run as administrator'....hopefully may help someone too
