Failure to fetch package manager server/folder

Hey guys,

I am trying to update a plugin (Hobs), but my Packager Manager is not working. I reinstalled Rhino but I get the same error. Tried to find a way to change that address folder that the PM is trying to access, but I cannot find it in Rhino.

I appreciate your help!

Hi -

Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.

Hej -

Thanks.
Go to the Rhino Options > Advanced page and type PackageManager in the search field.
Double-clicking on the value should pop up a dialog with a Set to Default button. Does using that one help?

Hi Abdallah -
I was afraid of that. You are running a cracked version of Rhino 7.1. We’re on 7.23 now.

Hi Alexander -

Have you tried to temporarily disable the firewall on your machine or on the network to make sure that your access to https://yak.rhino3d.com isn’t blocked?
-wim

Hi Wim, thanks for the tip! Looks like I will have to check with our IT about that.

While you’re at it, ask your IT crew to update your GPU drivers.

Hi John, indeed :man_facepalming:, but I guess thats a company feature unfortunately.

@wim The problem was fixed by turning off vpn :slight_smile:
