Full Version: could not connect to repository
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
So today I was remembered at what a pain setting up a repo add-on can be.

My repo is up here: https://github.com/jeroenpardon/repository.jeroen

I have been messing around for an hour now, deleted and updated my repo multiple times and whatever I do, I get a "Could not connect to repository."

I kept it really simple before setting up the final repo...am I that blind not seeing my mistake(s)? I saw the other thread with the same error, but I don't see anything wrong?

Any help greatly appreciated, I'm clueless really

This issue was solved. For some reason changing one of the add-ons' .zip version number to 0.0.1 solved it, even though the version number in the addon.xml and add-ons.xml was set to 0.0.2... very strange

Big thanks to Angelinas for helping out!
