ya either reinstall eclipse or you can try to update prior to installing the sdk. in Eclipse go to

help>check for updates

i would also update your jdk (though stay at 6 if you can there are some bugs with 7 and eclipse (at least in my experience))

I was running the Galileo version of eclipse and was running into the same issue. I upgraded java to the latest version of the sdk 6 which didn't fix the problem. Eclipse Juno is now out. I installed Juno and had no error messages when installing the Android ADT plugin.

Head over to Help -> Install New Software. Click on Available software sites. Delete the Android repo. Uncheck Indigo & Eclipse updates & recheck them. Now head back to Help -> Check for updates. Once done, add the Android repo again. Accept the license & you should be good to go.

You can fix this issue by removing all old Android plugins. Once you have removed all of the old Android plugins you can then install the new ones.

  1. Open Eclipse
  2. Select Help
  3. Select About Eclipse SDK
  4. Select Installation details
  5. Select all Android plugins &
  6. Select Uninstall
  7. Restart Eclipse
  8. Then install the plugins again as normal
  9. Restart Eclipse
