XML Parser error using Plugin manager to update plugins
Submitted by ryexley on Thursday, 7 April, 2005 - 13:57
I can't figure out what the problem here is, but I've not been able to figure it out for forever, and haven't found anything here on the message boards that explains how to fix it, so... I've been having a problem with the plugin manager when I try to access either the Update or the Install tab. Whenever I click on either of those, I get an XML Parser error that says: "An error occurred while parsing http://plugins.jedit.org/export/gzip_plugin_manager.php, line 1: expected character (found "e") (expected "<")" Anyone happen to have any idea what might be causing this, and/or how I can get around it and get it fixed, so I can update my existing plugins, and install some new ones? Thanks.

Found a workaround

The problem still exists, but I was able to work around it by selecting a different mirror to get plugins from, under the "Plugin manager" option in the Global Options dialog. Had to keep switching and trying different mirrors, because most of the ones available were too slow to be worth using, but the one in Ireland eventually ended up working well for me.
