Hello everybody,

I just installed the new version of VStar, and I am getting the following error when I open the Plugin Manager:

(Just in case the screen capture I've attached doesn't show up, the message reads:

Error reading remote plug-in information.

Error:

Server returned HTTP response code: 400 for URL: https://www.aavso.org/sites/default/files/vstar-plugins/vstar-plugins-2.22.1-dev-8c5aea-2023-05-05 14:50/.plugins.lst

)

Please let me know how can this be fixed.

Best regards,

Hi Enrique

The current official release is 2.22.0. You must be using a snapshot/development release from GitHub or an installer created for Windows from this. 

Go to Preferences -> Plug-ins and change the URL to end in 2.22.0 vs 2.22.1

Nothing new has been added via the Plugin Manager since 2.22.0. If you want plugins that match a 2.22.1 snapshot release, you can install them locally by a downloaded zip from GitHub. See also the VStar user manual or AAVSO VStar page.
