Issue with ScriptEditor: "Failed getting latest Rhino releases" Error

Hello everyone,

I have recently encountered an issue with ScriptEditor that did not exist a few months ago. When I enter the information related to the components and then click on “publish project,” the publish project page opens, but it initially freezes and then eventually shows an error: “Failed getting latest Rhino releases.”

My internet connection is stable, and Rhino has access to the internet (I can install other plugins using the package manager without any issues). I am currently using version 8.17.25066.7001, 2025-03-07, and changing my IP or trying other solutions has not helped.

Thanks in advance!

Run RhinoCodeLogs when this error pops and share the Error information from there. There should be a bit more info on why this web call failed

Hello dear Ehsan,

Strangely, the issue has been resolved for me without any changes on my part. However, my colleague is still experiencing this problem.

This is almost guaranteed to be firewall blocking the https call. I would whitelist *.nuget.org

System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. (api.nuget.org:443)

Issue Resolved: Description Text Caused the Problem

Hi everyone,

I’m the aforementioned colleague. I removed the description, and the issue was fixed. It turns out that something in the description text was causing the problem.

The NuGet access issue was not a factor—I tried every possible method, and it wasn’t relevant.

Just wanted to share in case anyone else runs into the same issue!

Having the same problem on an offline Version of Rhino 8 is there any workarounds for this?

@Jordan_Curtis You need internet access for this build workflow to work

Great, I managed to find a workaround using the old RhinoScriptCompiler.exe.

Would it be possible to make the new Script Editor work offline? I really like the updated editor — it’s a huge improvement — but having offline functionality would make it even more useful. Thanks!

@Jordan_Curtis I theory yes, but it needs internet to collect the published list of RhinoCommon nuget packages and download them to compile your plugin. Otherwise plugin would only work on your Rhino version and above.
