Just install Kodi on Linux Mint KDE 17.2 and tried to access the addons from the system menu. An error says that it cannot connect to the server. Is the server down for some reason or a bug ?
Thanks

Hi there, same problem today.
I installed Kodi 15 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 and it works ok but it cannot refresh or get the official kodi repository.
All addon menus @ video, program, music appear to be empty. The add-ons menu in settings gives me the following information: Kodi Add-on repository version 2.2.32 is mentioned but when I click "install from repository" kodi says: "Couldn't connect to network server"
Also no video, music or program addon information is shown in settings--> add-ons. Only 'My add-ons', 'install from zip file', 'search' and 'system' are listed.
I installed Kodi 15 on my android tablet, using the same home network, and kodi works just fine, including add-ons. My Ubuntu OS has firewall off.
To conclude: 'install from repository' menu is empty.

Same on Fire TV stick with Kodi 15. When I clicked on install from repository I got "Couldn't connect to network server". If I install third parties repositories those will work. But then when I select the official repo nothing happens.

We moved from mirrorbrain to mirrorbits redirector yesterday. The addons.xml.md5 files had to be handled slightly differently in order to work correctly.
This has been fixed now.
The fact that the list does not populate has little to do with it, but stems from the fact that it is being populated from the old (offline) mirror redirection system.
