Re: BASEmesh version 1.44 available

Hi Matthias,

I tried to install the BASEmesh 1.4.4 plugin on QGIS 2.18.4, but no success.
I get the following error when trying to load the repository via the URL http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~basement/qgis … /BASEmesh/:

"Error reading the repository: BASEmesh
Server response is 200 OK, but doesn't contain plugin metadata. This is most likely
caused by a proxy or a wrong repository URL. You can configure proxy settings in QGIS
options."

However, I have not set any proxy settings in QGIS.
This error was reproduced on a second PC with the same QGIS version.

Any hints?

Best
David

Re: BASEmesh version 1.44 available

Hi dazzle
I was having issues with this too. The thing is v1.4.4 is classified as an "experimental" version in the metadata. Therefore it doesn't list automatically in the repository. The following should solve your problem:

1. Open the plugin manager in QGIS
2. Add the BASEmesh repository (copy this exact address): http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~basement/qgis … lugins.xml
3. Go to "settings" in the plugin manager
4. Check the box "show experimental plugins"
5. go back to the BASEmesh plugin - v1.4.4 should now show and you should be able to install

Hope this helps.
