Android SDK Manager gives “Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml” error when selecting repository

Question

I\'m trying to install a platform but when I open Android Manager then I click Available Software then select the https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml

Answer 1

Try this solution and it worked. this problem is caused because ADB is unable to connect to the android servers to fetch updates. (If at home try turning off firewall)

• Goto Android SDK Manager c://android-sdk-windows/ open SDK-Manager
• Click Settings - Will be asked for a proxy.
• If have one enter the IP address and the port number. If not turn off your firewall.
• Check "Force https://... " (to force SDK Manager to use http, not https)

This should work immediately.
