@jmeterexperts1 , you need to install from update site: https://dl.bintray.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse-release

the old http://beust.com/eclipse/ gets retired.

What error are you seeing? It's not a web page, it's an Eclipse update site, so you can't view this page in your browser.

If Eclipse can't see the update site, are you using a proxy?

Thank you for your quick response !!

When I try to install from Eclipse Marketplace, it is giving me the below error,
"Unknown Host : http://beust.com/eclipse/content.xml. I am trying to install in my remote machine

it sounds like your network issue for sure.
could you run the following curl command on your remote machine, see if it gets back the similar 301 response:

curl -v http://beust.com/eclipse

I tried to invoke this curl command from cmd prompt of my remote machine.. getting the below response

Janani on 1 Mar 2016

ok, could you curl any other internet pages, like www.google.com?
could you check if you correctly set nameserver (dns) and/or http proxy at system level.

missedone on 1 Mar 2016

When tried to execute curl command for google.com, I get the below response

Janani on 2 Mar 2016

I am not connecting through proxy also.

Could you try to make a normal PING to that address? Maybe some firewall blocking that traffic?

FibreFoX on 7 Mar 2016

Something wrong with your DNS apparently. Can you try the IP address?

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: beust.com
Address: 205.186.183.235

Should be resolved now. At least open a new issue on https://github.com/cbeust/testng-eclipse

To resolve this issue.

GO to Eclipse installed folder
Edit eclipse.ini file and insert
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
at the end of that file. Restart the eclipse.

Issue Resalved:
I could able to resolve the above issue and install TestNG with the following modification in the eclipse.ini file

GO to Eclipse installed folder
Edit eclipse.ini file and insert
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
at the end of that file. Restart the eclipse.

Many Thanks.

I ran into the same error @hayro3122 got. What worked for me is installing the certificate into my local cacerts in jre/lib/security/cacerts by following the instructions at https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/how-to-import-a-public-ssl-certificate-into-a-jvm-867025849.html#HowtoimportapublicSSLcertificateintoaJVM-commandline

Download the public cert first, then import to my local cacerts. Restart Eclipse, and it will now read the web page properly.

barryku on 25 Sep 2019

@Rushrpa thank you very much. I could able to resolve the above issue by updating sts.ini file

This worked for me. If you are downloading the latest version eclipse, then it already has -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true included in it
