Why don't I have any plugins available?

[Wardy125]

I've looked around a fair bit, into how to install plugins etc, but everytime I open up the plugins tab, there's nothing there. It just says 'No entry has been found'.

I haven't changed the configuration address.

They used to be there because I saw them once. But I can't get them back now. Pressing refresh doesn't work.

Any ideas? :/

What's the Collection URL in the Configuration tab?

Code:

http://appcafe.org/freenas/json

Do you have the same issue if you clear your web browser cache? Or if you try with a different web browser?

That's really weird! It works for us (and I just did a fresh install to verify). Like Dru said, do you have some sort of weird web proxy setup or something that could be blocking the appcafe site from your end?

 

[Wardy125]

No, it does it on any browser and I've tried it from mulitple machines :/

I don't have any proxies or anything set up. I can actually access the URL within a browser, it shows all the text that usually appears.

[{"Pbi":{"id":"105785","icon":"\/img\/transmission.png","title":"Bit Torrent","description":"Transmission is a cross-platform BitTorrent client. ","author":"Transmission

etc...

Hi, similar problem here - only the URL is giving me a 404 error!

Does your actual FreeNAS machine (not the machine you're using webadmin from) have access to the internet?

You can verify this by either running ping or nslookup for google.com

Hi all.. same problem with me... :( and I can confirm my FreeNAS machine have an access to the internet.

That's strange. The only way I can get the plugin list to disappear is by either inserting a typo to the appcafe.org site address on the configuration page or by taking internet access away.

Are you sure your installations are clean? When was the last time the installation was reimaged?

Hi guys, same problem , Plugins list empty, (freshly installed FreeNAS-9.1.1-RELEASE-x64 (a752d35))
fix for me was:
Network -> Global configuration
fill in your IPv4 Default Gateway

cheers

ok doki

not only gateway have to put in Network > Global Configuration
NameServers (DNS) too

after that and few reboots
it works !!
