[SANJITHL]

I am currently using the eclipse version of 2022-06 in this for spring tools at first i installed the spring tools 4 but i didn't receive the spring folder ad the spring files in the eclipse page so again installed the spring tools 3 add-on for spring tools 4 but i have received an error of Unable to read repository at https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-3-add-aka-spring-tool-suite-3. Unable to read repository at https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-3-add-aka-spring-tool-suite-3. https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-3-add-aka-spring-tool-suite-3 is not a valid repository location.

Hey @SANJITHL, thanks for reaching out with this. I tried to reproduce the issue with the given information. Here is what I did:

• I installed a fresh Eclipse JEE 2022-06 package and started it with a fresh workspace
• I selected Help -> Eclipse Marketplace, searched for Spring and pressed Install on the Spring Tools 4 item (version 4.16.0.RELEASE)
• The following installation worked, I restarted the IDE, and switched to the Java perspective. There I can see all the menu items to create Spring projects, etc.

Can you follow those steps and explain what exactly doesn't work when you do this? And that exact error message do you see?

It might also be interesting to see if running from a fresh Eclipse 2022-06 installation behaves differently on your end, so might be good to give that a try.

Side note: The Spring Tools 3 Add-On is no longer maintained and should not be installed anymore.

No further feedback or details on this so far, so closing this for now. Probably solved with the comment above.
