FWIW, I >always< use Check For Updates. Never fails. On Windows I have a
standard folder (C:\RDi Plugins\iSphere) from where the plug-in was
initially unzipped and installed. The procedure I follow is:

- Download the .ZIP file
- Clear existing standard folder
- Unzip new version in standard folder
- Start RDi
- Use HELP > CHECK FOR UPDATES

Invariably the newer version of iSphere is picked up: just follow the
prompts.

HTH,
Brian.

Allan,

Did you already told us what version of RDi you use? I could not find
that information. I assume that you use 6.6 or higher so that
validating the certificate chain should work. It does not work any
longer for RDP 8.0.

When I create a new release I test the repository by updating iSphere
via:

* Install New Software
* Eclipse Marketplace

I never use "Update Software".

I updated iSphere at around 4pm New York time on 4/23 with no issues.
In RDI I did an install software and pointed to the iSphere repository -
http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0><http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0>>


Downloaded and installed with no issue.

Note: I use the 'Install New Software' option instead of the 'Check
for Updates' function.
This has always worked for me.

I have no idea why that happens. It might be a problem at SourceForge
or a caching problem somewhere else.

BTW, when I mentioned earlier in this thread that I successfully
installed iSphere 4.0.1, then I did that with RDi 9.6.

I cannot update RDP 8.0 for a long time, because of the following error:

Unable to read repository at
http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml><http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml>>.

Unable to read repository at
http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml><http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml<http://isphere.sourceforge.net/eclipse/rdi8.0/site.xml>>.

Received fatal alert: protocol_version

I assume that SourceForge changed the TLS version to a newer version,
that is not supported by the Java runtime included in RDP 8.0.

For RDi 9.6 users I suggest to close and restart RDi or wait for the
next day.

Thomas.
