STS error installing Grails, Groovy

Question

I have installed STS 2.7.1 on windows 7 and now i am trying to install Groovy eclipse, Grails support and Grails extension on it but i keep getting error -

An error occured while collecting items to be installed session context was:(profile=com.springsource.sts.ide=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=,action=). Unable to read repository at http://dist.springsource.org/snapshot/GRECLIPSE/e3.7/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy_1.7.10.xx-20110811-0900-e37.jar . Read timed out.

Any ideas what's happening here? i can get to this url through browser.

Thanks, Gaurav

OK, i have finally managed to solve this.. Apparently, it didn't like my JDK version. I had to downgrade from JDK 7 to JDK6 U27 and it worked like a charm.
