My best guess is that you are having problems where you require HTTP proxy 
to access the Internet.  If you have WDSC 5.1, then go to Window -> 
Preferences and then choose Install/Update.  There is then a place where 
you can enter your proxy configuration.  You should be able to copy 
whatever you would enter in your browser configuration.

Also, since you successfully installed the Messages plug-in you can 
actually skip one step in the spooled file plugin install.  When the 
message plugin installs it adds our update site as a folder under your 
"Sites to Visit" within Update Manager.  Expand that folder, and then 
expand "SoftLanding.com Discovery Site".  You can then install the spooled 
file plugin from there.  However, this still would require the HTTP Proxy 
to be configured.

If you cannot get the connection working, send an email to the address 
listed on our site, and they will email you alternate instructions that 
works like the messages plugin.

Thanks

Spool Files


Mark

I've successfully downloaded & installed the messaging plugin.

Now onto the spool file plugin ...
 
After following the PDF instructions I get the following error when
expanding Softlanding in the Feature Updates window 

'Unable to access "http://softlanding.com/free_plugins/"; further details
give error parsing site stream. [White spaces are required between
publicID and systemID]
Unable to access site stream:
"http://www.softlanding.com/free_plugins/site.xml"; [:
"http://www.softlanding.com/free_plugins/site.xml]

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong??

Regards

Andy

Correct, you can do that if you already have the spooled file plug-in.

The instructions for the Messages plugin now have you download a zip
file 
instead of the technique the spooled file plugin used.  This is because
we 
ran into a lot of people that had Proxy/Firewalls that did not work with

the Install/Update manager.  But if that worked for you with the spooled

file plugin, it will also work for the messages plugin.

Also, as with the spooled file plugin you have to either create a new
RSE 
connection, or delete/recreate your existing one for the new
"susbsystem" 
to appear.  IBM has fixed/enhanced this in RSE, but it will not be 
available until a future refresh of WDSC.

Mark

PS - If you didn't already do so, you might still want to go through the

process on our web site so that you can get the PDF with the
documentation 
for the plug-in and how to set it 
up.--------------------------------------------------------
