Plugin Manager shows no plugins to install

usha mandava · Aug 15, 2016, 9:34 PM

Hi,

I have latest version of notepad++ installed on my PC (OS is windows 10).

I am trying to install Compare plugin for notepad++, But when i see in Plugin Manager it shows “No new Plugins available” in **Available **Tab of Plugin Manager, same in “Updates” tab of Plugin Manager.

I asked our infrastructure team about this. They tried couple of ways but couldn’t help me to fix this.

May i know which port number has been used for this, to get the plugins ? if this is not the right option for fixing this issue, please suggest me how to fix it.

Thanks for your help on it.

@usha-mandava

sometimes sourceforge doesn’t respond fast enough, did you try it multiple times?
Firewalls active?

Cheers

Hi,

I have tried multiple times. I don’t this firewalls are allowing, because they enabled for security purpose.

@usha-mandava

npp (or better plugin manager) sends an http get request to sourceforge server, nothing special. (TCP/PORT 80)
Could it be that you have multiple network interfaces in your pc? Routing issue?
Can you open sourceforge website on that pc?
