Cannot install any brackets extension #13481

Open core-ai-bot opened 3 years ago

core-ai-bot commented 3 years ago

Issue by lkoumis Friday Jan 08, 2016 at 17:10 GMT Originally opened as https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/12064


I get the error: "Installation failed. Error connecting to the server" for installation for ANY extension.

I am not working behind a proxy and the localhost resolves to the 127.0.0.1

With no extensions, I'd use notepad++.

Make sure that your firewall permits the Node process used by Brackets to download the packages.

Hi, I have the same problem but with different error message - Installation failed, Unknown internal error. I just downloaded latest Brackets from git (it says Release 1.8 development build 1.8.0-0 (master 5141df27a)).

Using Linux Mint 17.3 64bit. In some other issue was mentioned that this error was fixed, but still keeps occuring to me. Have to install all extensions by hand - copy the extensions into to extension directory. Even install from URL does not work.

Hi@CrNix,

do you see any errors in the Developer Tools? You can see them in Debug -> Show Developer Tools. Check the console and network tabs after getting that error.

@petetnt Hi, this the message from console: "Unknown installation error extensionManager domain is undefined"

Same as CrNix here. It happened to me while using Debian 8 and Ubuntu. I also deleted all hidden folders in my home directory (such as .config) but still have the same issue.

@petetnt Hi, here is also the line number of the error Package.js:408

Hi@CrNix: could you try the latest master. #12702 has a bug fix that most likely won't fix the installation issue, but actually shows more useful information than just Unknown installation error

See How to hack on Brackets on how to do that.

Hi@petetnt, pulled the latest master (commit: master be628813e) but the message in the console is the same.

Here is the GUI dialog shown

@stelarossa is it a 32-bit OS? If it is, download the 32 bit Node.exe from https://nodejs.org/en/download/ and replace the node.exe in the Brackets installation folder with it.

Or you can try https://github.com/adobe/brackets/releases/tag/release-1.9-prerelease

Thank you for your replyes :) I have tried solutions proposed by you,but it haven't worked...anybody have some other idea?it seems like great editor but without extenssions its not just that good to me(I write a lot of html,so emmet is must have,even tryed downloading it and installing it by simple dragging and it still whan't install it).Hoped to switch to brackets from sublime,but...

@stelarossa Oh, bummer.

Can you check the developers tools if there's any errors after trying to install extensions? You can see the console in Debug -> Show Developers Tools. It might be some sort of permission issue if even dragging and dropping fails 🤔

@stelarossa check this guide: https://github.com/zaggino/brackets-npm-registry#how-to-install-brackets-npm-registry

It's written for extension brackets-npm-registry but it can be modified to install any extension, for example if I wanted to install brackets-emmet from https://github.com/emmetio/brackets-emmet on windows, I'd do this:

cd /D %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\Brackets\extensions\user
git clone https://github.com/emmetio/brackets-emmet brackets-emmet
cd brackets-emmet
npm install

@stelarossa did you test with 1.9? https://github.com/adobe/brackets/releases/tag/release-1.9

core-ai-bot commented 3 years ago

Comment by stelarossa Friday Mar 24, 2017 at 15:58 GMT


I did the following verifying it won't work: downloaded 32-bit node.exe and replaced existing one. downloaded brackets 1.9,deinstalled earlier version,installed new one. downloaded npm like in tutorial,than tryed downloading emmet like stated above.npm installed successfuly,emmet not,error timeout. checked firewall rulles just in case,all good... I'm confused. Any suggestions,it looks great,but basicly without exstensions it's not that much usefull(just the way I'm useto coding) :)

Try modifying the extension to use "view/WorkspaceManager" instead of "view/PanelManager". I had problem installing the most of the extensions too. https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/11960#issuecomment-374403225

this is a very frustrating issue... am closing to never really try Brackets... I gave my firewall the allowance for node, but still it does not work
