If you see this go to <yoururl>/admin/upgrade to complete the upgrade. We're looking into the issue.

@Adriano Faria The issue with @Morrigan not being able to upgrade is because your new application has a lower (long) version number than your plugin did (despite this being a point in the guidelines for this exact reason). No one using your plugin will be able to upgrade to the newer version.

I have a test instance of 4.5.1 inaccessible to the web, requiring HTTP Basic Auth for everything except /api. When I try to use the new "Sign into Marketplace" feature, I get this error message:

This is most likely a result of the basic auth, but I'm unable to find what specific endpoint the marketplace server is hitting. Anyone know if there's an endpoint I can exclude from basic auth to make this work?

You can exclude /index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=marketplace from your password protection

I think it checks for updates for Themes from marketplace as well?

And language packs... basically anything you can get from the Marketplace in your AdminCP.

The update check is less important in 4.5.1, if you visit the Marketplace listing in the AdminCP it will always use live data to determine if an update is available.

1. A setting for this was introduced in 4.5.0
   
2. The Image Proxy was removed in 4.5 due to inherent security risks that it was no longer worth trying to work around since the adoption of SSL has drastically increased since we introduced the feature.

Just now, Techvour

is there no longer a way to manually download it?  I get a error 500 when i try to use the marketplace to install it

I would recommend submitting a support ticket in the client area we will need to look into what is going wrong.

Sorry, I'm confused here.

Opened up the marketplace, went to the plugin, clicked on 'marketplace'?

Feel free to submit a ticket if you're having an issue. 4.5.1 (inc the betas) contained a number of improvements for checking for updates of Marketplace resources, I haven't seen any tickets to indicate these changes have issues yet.

Have a read of this document, it covers the CSRF protection requirements

We were generating renewal invoices way too far in advance, so they were including anything that expired in the timeframe. This should be fixed now.

I bought lot's of plugins an applications, but now (since 4.5 here) I always get this message:

"Sorry, you aren't permitted to download this file."

What's wrong?

The Marketplace now (we introduced this change a few months ago) requires an active license. I can see you've just renewed your license so you should have access to it now. If you're still seeing the issue, please submit a ticket and let us know.

We'll look at making that more visible.

After upgrading to 4.5 you must complete the Marketplace set up process.

Open your admincp notifications and click on the marketplace setup notification to get started.

Also brought this up in testing. The workaround I found was to go to System > Tasks > updateCheck > run it a bunch of times over and over again until you see the menu item increment the available update number.

You can click check for updates on the applications page, it does the same thing 👍

This is addressed in 4.5.1, but yes for now you may have to check for updates more than once depending on how many marketplace resources you have installed.

If you had copied your access token to the right place (without modifying any code), it would also show you signed in. As I've noted earlier though, there isn't an issue with installing things locally and we've said that in the past. The technical requirement is for the login process only because we need to securely transmit data to your community and currently there is no other way to do that without potentially compromising your community account.

And what has the internal discussion conclusion come to? Is this something that will be changed? 

I merged the topic with an existing topic on the same subject, it was nothing to do with any internal discussions.

I touched on above how to login to the Marketplace on a locally hosted install, there's nothing stopping you doing it providing that you meet the technical requirements for it. That is, pointing a resolvable URL to your local machine and using your TESTINSTALL license key.

@ibaker I have merged your topic with an existing one that had similar questions and already has responses.

So how do get a copy after you have paid for it...bloody IPS, more darn frustration

If you want the 4.4 version, scroll down to the changelog area, change the version to the one that was compatible with 4.4 and click download.

5 minutes ago, Paul E. said:

I don't think it's the issue that you can't point to the marketplace. It's the issue that you can't download and inspect the packages directly from IPS any more.

Not directly, however the original bug report was reporting a different 'issue' where _Dean couldn't log in to the Marketplace.

There's now a requirement that the test install have internet access

You only need the install to be accessible for the initial login, it doesn't need to be online 24/7.

...like altering the core_members table rather than having an application/plugin specific table. Whatever checks of things (if any--I'm not sure) happening at IPS...

Along side these changes we did also introduce stricter submission guidelines (you'll like point 2.2.8) and we now review all updates -- previously we would only review the initial first submission.

There is nothing stopping you using the Marketplace locally, you just need to point a URL to your test install (that's registered as the -TESTINSTALL license key) for the authentication system to work. There are plenty of 'dynamic' DNS type services you can use for this if you don't have the ability to set up your own DNS.

I appreciate the fact that it's a change from how it used to work, but you can still test resources from the Marketplace.

Any help on this please? @Stuart Silvester 💕

I would recommend submitting a ticket,then we can have a more in-depth look for you.

where/how?

You can purchase the Commerce app from the client area to add it to your existing license.

For setting advertisement sales up, I would recommend taking a look at our help guide

This was reported as a bug and is fixed in an upcoming release (most likely beta 11)

Received the following message. How would I correct this?  This occured after I performed a Windows Server update. I have no idea how to repair this. And now, this is what my forum looks like.

http://www.6thcorpscombatengineers.com/engforum/index.php?act=idx

Warning MySQL

InnoDB: Cannot open table vicorpsforum/ibf_core_log from the internal data dictionary of InnoDB though the .frm file for the table exists. 

I can't obtain help from tech support because even though I have been a client for 12 years, they no longer support Windows, so they were unwilling to help me.

 

You would need to contact your web host and/or server administrator. This is an issue with your MySQL server that they will need to look into and repair.

It's a generic error message, so it may not mean you're both running into the same issue.

@Michael Yates Try it now. If you still have issues, please submit a support ticket.
