P2 (Eclipse Update) cannot be installed using a Java 7 JVM with IBM Worklight and IBM Mobile Foundation

Troubleshooting

Problem

You might notice that repeated attempts to download plugins eventually fail. A dialog box opens and indicates that an error occurred while collection items are being installed.

Symptom

For example, if Eclipse has trouble retrieving org.apache.derby.core, you might see:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=). Multiple problems occurred while downloading. Unable to write to repository: file:/C:/Users/nick/jee-32/eclipse/.
