Re: [tei-council] oXygen TEI framework plugin install problem on (my) Mac OSX

There’s the screen-capture illustration. I’m contacting oXygen support with it now, so I’ll report back when I learn anything. For now, though, I wonder if anyone else has seen anything similar?

Dear Council— I’m seeing a new problem on my Mac OS X installation of oXygen, and I can’t seem to shake it with fresh installations. I’m blocked from installing the TEI (stable) framework plugin (from here http://www.tei-c.org/release/oxygen/updateSite.oxygen http://www.tei-c.org/release/oxygen/updateSite.oxygen ) , and this is the error I see when I try to install: "There was a problem establishing the secure HTTPS connection. In case the server you are trying to connect to uses self-signed certificates, read the 'Troubleshooting HTTPS' section from the user manual. Full error message: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure”

I’ve been following the troubleshooting guidance in the oXygen manual in adjusting Preferences (automatically accept security certificates even if invalid). In fact, I’ve got *everything* checked under Network Connections —> HTTP(S)/WebDav, and I’ve been testing this all over on multiple network connections, to no avail.

I *can* and *have* installed the bleeding edge plugin http://teijenkins.hcmc.uvic.ca/job/oxygen-tei-bleeding/lastSuccessfulBuild/a... http://teijenkins.hcmc.uvic.ca/job/oxygen-tei-bleeding/lastSuccessfulBuild/a... : no problems here!

Stuff I’ve tried: * Attempt to reproduce the problem on another Mac: I asked a friend to try updating his stable framework plugin, and he’s not seeing the problem. (fail.) * Follow troubleshooting here: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/18.1/ug-editor/tasks/import-https-ser... https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/18.1/ug-editor/tasks/import-https-ser... but I’m stymied b/c a) I don’t see any security certificate problem with connecting to our framework plugin site, and b) Though I can, of course, download the plugin locally, I don’t see a way to get hold of a certificate (it’s not an https connection anyway).

Does anyone have any idea what’s going wrong here? I’d like to update my plugin to 6.1.1 on this because it’s the computer I’ll have in Prague next week.

Sorry if this is a blunderbuss of an idiot's question…I don’t want to go messing with my JRE unless it’s necessary, and I thought I’d ask Council before I go begging for help from oXygen...
