Expansion Pack Manager

Post by Hamishthecat »

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble updating the expansions list in the Pack Manager as I keep getting a download failed message and to check the latest.log for more details.

The most recent info in the log is this:

13:51:23.171 [gnustep]: 2023-04-28 13:51:23.171 oolite[17388] Host 'addons.oolite.org' not found using 'gethostbyname()' - perhaps the hostname is wrong or networking is not set up on your machine

13:51:23.171 [gnustep]: 2023-04-28 13:51:23.171 oolite[17388] Attempt to lookup host entry for bad IP address (addons.oolite.org)

13:51:24.591 [files.notFound]: Expected file but found empty file at J:\Oolite 1.90/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.plist

13:51:24.591 [oxz.manager.error]: Downloaded manifest was not a valid plist, has been left in J:\Oolite 1.90/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.plist


I'm using v1.90 of the game.

Please can anyone help?

Cheers

See here for explanation and fix.
