Re: iSphere plugin

Greg,

I was trying to install the iSphere with the web-URL, and it failed. We waited until the next day, and then it worked...

I assume it might have been "web-Issues".

It is a "MUST HAVE" free plugin. IMHO.

Ken,

Thanks... that's exactly what I did previous to my message. The web install is failing on both PC's.

I manually download and unzipped the file - it installed just fine.

I couldn't get my old PC to hit the URL either. Got the same error... and it had been working since I originally installed it last year (I've used it for several updates).

Greg,

I paste this link into "install new software" inside of RDI, without Quote:

Help>install new software...

"iSphere - http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/";

The first part is the name, the second half is the Link for the install of RDI...

You will have to follow the wizard to install.

http://isphere.sourceforge.net/help/
click on the "Install Instructions" on the left. Hope that might help! <Big Smile> It show more detail installation instructions. I recommend the web-install, rather than the download. But, whatever works for you!


PS. No longer do I need to download/unzip, or whatever else! Just use the link "INSIDE of RDI"...

Now, it does required you create the back-end isphere library, but that is a few mouse clicks...

When I tried to install iSphere, I'm getting an "Unable to read repository at http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/content.xml " message.

Am I doing something wrong?
