Re: Having trouble installing iSphere

I did not do that though. It is strange that this is a requirement since I do not have any trouble with other plugins once RDi is installed. I will try that tonight though.

I find that I should always run RDi as administrator, in order to have 
success with option b) - was that mentioned in the sourceforge 
discussion? Is it something that you always do as a matter of course 
when installing an update?

This could be a useful question to ask anyone who has had trouble with 
an installation.
