If open "extensions" and use Find More Extensions I always get "Error accessing Foswiki.org: Can't connect to foswiki.org:80 (connect: timeout)". I don´t know why. I tried to install it manually, but it seems not to work or I don´t realy know how it work. Foswiki is installed on a windows computer (partition d:). I unpack the .zip archive to D:\Foswiki\Foswiki\. Then I use the console type "cd D:\Foswiki\Foswiki" and try to execute the installer script? ________________________________________________________________ D:\Foswiki\Foswiki>perl ActionTrackerPlugin _installer ### ActionTrackerPlugin Installer ### This installer must be run from the root directory of your Foswikiinstallation.* The script will not do anything without asking you forconfirmation first (unless you used -a).* You can abort the script at any point and re-run it later* If you answer 'no' to any questions you can always re-runthe script again later##########################################################Checking dependency on Time::ParseDate....*** ActionTrackerPlugin depends on cpan package Time::ParseDate >=2003.0211which is described as "Required.

Greeds Morten Did you configured your local cpan tool already? Before you can use it for the first time, you need to run through some basic configuration. Do you have LWP installed on your system? What are the exact error messages after he´s still fetching with LWP - but it doesn´t work.? Do you use a dedicated perl distributiuon (activeperl, strawberry,...)? -- OliverKrueger - 03 Jul 2009 eh, no I didn´t configure CPAN - how can I? I´m usin

I have setup {PROXY}{HOST} to be username:password@proxy.company.com and {PROXY}{PORT} to be port. Consulted locations: Foswiki.org Error accessing Foswiki.org: Can't connect to proxy.company.com:port (connect: Permission denied) I also have another server with 1.0.10 that works, and https://foswiki.org/Support/Question225 I don't even have to use username:password@ in the {PROXY}{HOST} field. Running this from the command line works. http_proxy='http://username:password@proxy.company.com:port' GET http://foswiki.org/Extensions/ Any help in debugging this would be appreaciated. -- GregWoods - 22 Apr 2011 I just tried 1.0.10 on the problem server and it does not work with or without the https://foswiki.org/Support/Question844 username:password. So it does seem like this is a combonation of server config and the username:password not working for me. -- GregWoods - 26 Apr 2011 I was trying to figure out why my manual plugin installes were not working correctly and ran across a discussion about selinux. When I turn off selunix I can connect.

However, the Find More Extensions page states Error accessing Foswiki.org: Can't connect to foswiki.org:80 (connect: Connection refused). This is very similar to [[Question225]]. What is the reason for this error, and how might I solve it? I'm suspecting there's a firewall issue here because if I try wget www.google.com from the console then I get a very similar error:Connecting to www.google.com|74.125.39.106|:80... failed: Connection refused. I'd prefer to use the configure method for updating and adding plugins, but I'm afraid that because of the above issue, I'm stuck with downloading to my client PC and then moving it to the server by FTP. Am I correct? Is it possible that wget is magically using a company proxy to get to the internet thanks to an ENVar that the webserver user's environment (running Foswiki) doesn't have set? Try telnet www.google.com 80 - if the connection fails, but the wget succeeds, that would be signs of a proxy, in which case you need to enter the details into configure -- PaulHarvey - 13 Jul 2010 Thank you for the tip, Paul.
