Hi Christine,

Unfortunately, this is a permissions issue. If you do not have administrative access to the computer, you cannot use the module manager to upgrade from 2.0 to 2.1.

This problem will be addressed in Kepler 2.2, which will be released sometime in the future. For now, you will need to get administrative access to the computer in order to upgrade to 2.1.

I have installed kepler 2.0 on my Windows XP machine. It comes up fine. However, I can’t seem to get the module manager to work. Basically, I followed your directions:

1.       Toolsà Module Manager
2. Select ‘kepler 2.1.0’ in the ‘Available Suites’ list and move it over to ‘Selected Modules’
3.       Press the ‘Apply and Restart’ button

The ‘Apply and Restart’ button gets grayed out and then, as far as I can tell, nothing happens. I’ve let kepler sit for 30 minutes on the off chance that something was going on behind the scenes, but I’ve had no success. When I start kepler from the command line with

java -jar kepler.jar

I get the message ‘[null] downloading module *kepler-2.1.0’ in the command line window after I click the ‘Apply and Restart’ button. So presumably the software thinks that it is doing something. Could this be a permissions problem? I do not have administrative access to this computer. Perhaps this is even a firewall problem? I’m not sure how I would go about checking that. I haven’t gotten any messages from my firewall, although it’s possible that I wouldn’t see anything.

Thanks!
Christine
