Have you done a refresh and/or 'ckan update' ?

Yes I have a few times still shows as installed

johnsonwax · May 5, 2015

Try doing 'ckan remove KIS'. It'll complain that it can't find it but will remove it from the registry. Then do a regular install and it should be fine.

nfpinto · May 5, 2015

can someone please reupload on mediafire or mega? i cant access github, i guess its a ISP problem... thanks in advance

I assume you mean do that from cmd prompt or some such?

Figured it out Thanks for the help

Could we get a more verbose log panel in the install window.

I never can tell if it's actually doing anything or if it's stuck/crashed.

If you can't download from github many of the mods available in CKAN won't work for you seeing as a lot of indexing is done from Github.

Good suggestion, open a github issue.

So CKAN started crashing for me today, and I have no idea why. Hope someone can help me

Crash report: picture Error report is in dutch, but I'm asuming actual names of errors are the same so it's still fine.

EDIT: Problem solved by reinstallation

Are you by any chance running the latest CKAN-nightly build? What are the MainWindowPos values in the <KSP root directory>/CKAN/GUIConfig.xml file?

No, I was running the latest release version.

I had a few other problems with the instalation though, so I have since nuked the entire KSP folder and freshly downloaded everything, and it works again.

Maybe a little impatient but problem solved I guess

rottielover · May 6, 2015

I haven't touched KSP or CKAN in 3 days (got really busy IRL). Tonight I fired up CKAN found that about 10 mods updated, and clicked the buttons to update them all. CKAN crashed as Sirrobert reported. I am not running any daily build or anything like that it says it's 1.6.12 and that no update is required (settings ckan settings check update).

I'll do what Sirrobert did and re-install everything I guess.

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Something is borked with Smokescreen and HotRockets. I decided to switch and start using CKAN as means for updating the mods I have which support it, but....

So I manually removed my HR and SmokeScreen folders, refreshed CKAN, clicked HotRockets(I didn't choose SmokeScreen in CKAN on purpose, thinking it will pull its dependency by itself)...well, it didn't, even though I can see there is SS 2.6.0 uploaded to CKAN, and this is its latest version for KSP 1.0.x

CKAN throws the following exception on everything I do - pressing a button, trying to sort and there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it anymore. Even the terminal spits the message. I can't even refresh the mod list:

v1.6.13 aka Io released

Changes since last version:

[Feature] Mods can now also be filtered by compatible (default) and incompatible in the GUI.
[bugfix] The GUI should no longer try to save its position as "off-screen".
[bugfix] Better start-up arguments when launching KSP on Mac systems.
[bugfix] Numerous fixes for mono 4.
[bugfix] Long abstracts should now have scrollbars.
[bugfix] Auto-update failures should no longer crash the GUI, you just won't get the update.
[bugfix] The auto-updater will no longer assume you want updates when you really don't.

A huge thank-you to both @RichardLake and @mgsdk, who are responsible for the changes in this release!

That is great. One feature not mentioned in the changelist is that 'new in repository' now only shows the mods that are new in the repository, which is great. It let me find a nice little mod (that I hope is stable) which freezes the menus when you mouseover. Something I have wanted for a while but did not know until I saw the mod.

Probably my fault, one of the many changes to firespitter in the last few days seem to be lashing back. I'd recommend uninstalling firespitter core (if you have it installed) and then reinstalling it. If that doesn't work, or if you don't have it installed, try removing the offending file and repeat the operation you where attempting when the error occured.

Something is borked with Smokescreen and HotRockets. I decided to switch and start using CKAN as means for updating the mods I have which support it, but....
So I manually removed my HR and SmokeScreen folders, refreshed CKAN, clicked HotRockets(I didn't choose SmokeScreen in CKAN on purpose, thinking it will pull its dependency by itself)...well, it didn't, even though I can see there is SS 2.6.0 uploaded to CKAN, and this is its latest version for KSP 1.0.x

   at CKAN.CmdLine.MainClass.Scan(KSP current_instance)
   at CKAN.CmdLine.MainClass.Main(String[] args)

It didn't even list SmokeScreen in the installation screen, CKAN doesn't automagically check the checkboxes but rather adds dependencies in the installation screen? Looking at the metadata HotRockets is marked as depending on SmokeScreen so I need confirmation on the issue.

That is great. One feature not mentioned in the changelist is that 'new in repository' now only shows the mods that are new in the repository, which is great. It let me find a nice little mod (that I hope is stable) which freezes the menus when you mouseover. Something I have wanted for a while but did not know until I saw the mod.

The awesome work of RichardLake

I have a simple but useful suggestion (I think?) - can you put the name of the game instance we are working on in CKAN somewhere obvious on the main CKAN screen? Maybe ion the title bar? I sometimes use 2 or 3 instances of CKAN and I have a hell of a time telling which is which :\

Surefoot · May 6, 2015

Can someone add that mod to CKAN ? that would be nice

ericwdhs · May 6, 2015

Not sure if this is the best place for a feature/plug-in request, but could we get a column in the GUI dedicated to custom, filterable tags to mods (both installed and not)? I'd like to be able to label mods with tags like "Favorite," "Watch: Needs Update," "Watch: Concept Has Potential," "First to Delete at RAM Limit," "Rejected: Not Stock-like," "Rejected: Alternative Used," and so on. CKAN has already become indispensable for me, but I keep going to other programs to do mod evaluating and sorting, and I end up looking over a lot of mods more than once. This one feature would allow me to do everything I need to do within CKAN. Whatever the result, thanks for this great program!

I have a simple but useful suggestion (I think?) - can you put the name of the game instance we are working on in CKAN somewhere obvious on the main CKAN screen? Maybe ion the title bar? I sometimes use 2 or 3 instances of CKAN and I have a hell of a time telling which is which :\

Awesome idea! Please open a github issue

Can someone add that mod to CKAN ? that would be nice

I was just going to but @dbent beat me to it, lots of cred to that person also for being awesome and helping out a lot

I recommend opening a github issue, sounds like a cool idea

Done. Haven't done much on GitHub. Guess I should rectify that if I want to get good at programming.

CKAN still does not see the new version of Infernal Robotics, although we've even created a tag "v0.21.2" instead of "0.21.2". Can somebody force the update or something?

I have just run the update.

When Selecting TACLS TAC life support from the compatible list it then disables the "go to changes" button to allow it to install.

Any reason for this?

Actually if TACLS is selected it prevent any other mod from being installed... so just a error in that one mod that's upsetting Ckan?

I fixed this by selecting the Stock Config as well. It installs well after that.

Hi beautiful CKAN people! I'm on OSX and while CKAN works extremely well in most cases, I've been having some issues with installing a few different mods. I've checked that the mods I'm attempting to install are up to date and properly sourced, but I keep getting this "RecvError" notification in both CKAN and on the Terminal. The Terminal error looks like this

"183520 [1] ERROR CKAN.ErrorDialog (null) - Failed to download "https://kerbalstuff.com/mod/148/Modular Rocket Systems - Parts Pack/download/1.6.2" - error: RecvError"

I have a number of mods that I have installed that will not update thanks to this error, while others seem to update fairly easily.

Any ideas?

It's in there as of this morning, refresh your repository
