Re: [Qgis-user] Plugin Installation Issue: OpenLayers

2017-07-03 Thread Nate Cousineau 
I’m getting a network error when trying to download it via the browser as well. 
I will check with our IT service provider to see if they have any insights. 
Thanks so much for all you help!

Somehow, your QGIS is not able to download the plugin. This means something 
with your internet connection prevents it from doing so (because I just 
verified that the link from your own log message works for me here, so we 
cannot blame the QGIS plugin repository server).

Let's investigate...

1. Can you download this link from your browser?
http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/openlayers_plugin/version/1.4.3/download/

If yes, it means your browser can download the plugin (through the same 
internet connection).
If no... you'll have to find out why (or download it somewhere else and do some 
manual steps)...

Anyway, so if yes you were able to download it: A common difference between 
QGIS and your browser is the "proxy". Check the proxy settings in your browser 
(depends on your particular browser, use your favorite search engine...) and 
then read the following link:

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/25188/how-to-access-qgis-plugin-repositories-from-behind-a-proxy

Good luck :)

That one isn’t working either – and I’m getting the same error message.

Apologies again as I’m completely new to this, but what is the integrated XYZ 
possibilities? And what proxy settings am I looking to change?

Thanks,

Nate

Hi Nate,

The error message here is unrelated to the two plugins you mentioned.

Can you go to the plugin manager, make sure these plugins are activated and 
check if you have any other message there?

Matthias

  What about the idea that we all add a file 'version.txt' into the root

  plugin-installer) to serve that from the zip when people ask for it
  like: http://spatialserver.net/pyqgis/plugins/mapserver_export.zip?version
  or something like that?
  In that way we can put some plugin details and version information in it
  (a little more verbose then we do in the 'description'-field now. I'm
  really missing this more verbose version information when stuff is not
  working, and I want to know IF there is a newer version available, and
  what is fixed in that one...)
  On the upload of a plugin we can check for the existence of that file,
  like we check the zip now isn't it?

This would be a nice addition...
Gary, is it possible to implement this to your plugin repository?
Basically if uploaded ZIP contains a specified file, e.g. README, it
will allow you to download it (without downloading the whole plugin)
or view it in plugin repository web.


  Another idea-balloon (sorry if I'm firing to much idea's): what if we
  ask maintainers of plugins to add a blog-item for every plugin. In that
  way as a maintainer you can give some more information (screendumps)
  about it, and other people can add comments on it, adding idea's patches
  or help?

Actually, when uploading a plugin you can set a home page for it...
isn't this exactly what you mean?

Now I've found out that the problem is due to incorrect creation of
directories - in some cases zip files, directories are not listed  
(in
that case we create only top-level dir which leads to the problem

subdirectories).

Fixed in trunk in r8191 but users of prebuilt packages will have to
unpack the plugin manually.


The version prior to r8191 worked and was not the cause of the issue
in this thread. The problem is that the fix has not made it into a
released version yet.


Actually, I had the same error in my fresh svn trunk checkout so I
doubt that it was working ... were you able to install html_imagemap?
That .zip file doesn't list the directories, only files. So only the
top level directory was created which resulted in an error since that
.zip contains also some more subdirs which were not created.
Well then it was just another perturbation that hadn't been accounted  
for yet. Hopefully the latest changes will cover all the bases
