update 3.3 failed unable to read repository

KNIME Analytics Platform
1

Hi,

I have this issue on different machines (Windows and also Mac). Another device (Windows) was able to run the complete update. But for now I receive on the Mac and the other Windows-machine (no admin rights) this error while trying to apply the update:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed

session context was:(profile=KNIMEProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).

Unable to read repository at http://update.knime.org/analytics-platform/3.3/knid=01-67cd6e1c804f8314/org/3.3/3.3.1/plugins/org.apache.tika.app_1.13.0.jar.

Read timed out

I don't think that this might be an firewall issue. Because I can download the jar-file, when I copy the URL into my browser (on both machines).

 

Can you help me, I can't be alone with this problem ;-)

Thanks in advance

A colleague suggested adding these settins to the knime.ini file. I added it belwo the -vmargs line. And it solved my problem on a large internal network getting strange messages when trying to update KNIME. From my understanding it basically increases the timeout for the operations.

 

-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.excludeContributors=org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.httpclient4

-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.closeTimeout=3000

-Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.retrieve.readTimeout=3000

Hi mlauber71,

Thanks. Unfortunately, this didn't work in my case. I had to download the whole new software and reimport the workspace.
