      it's ready and should be the first plugin you install. you are installing it from the downloaded file in 2015 correct?

      Hi,

      Yes. Downloaded here http://sketchucation.com/resources/plugin-store-download and installed from Window/Preferences/Extensions menu.

      But Make 2015 doesn't show in the Bundle tab:

          It's a bundle I created of my installed plugins in SU8.

            I don't have my pc here to check but I think you won't have a bundle if you haven't used the tool to install any plugins. So on a new install you would download the su8 bundle and that would become the current 2015 bundle until you edit or add to it.

              I guess you are expecting to see 'Bundle' named 'LEMINLAB-PROD-15' ?
              Have you tried restarting SketchUp ?
              In v2015 what does you're 'My Installs' tab show ?
              If it's empty there is no Bundle.
              Try installing a Plugins and re-check the 'My Installs' and the 'Bundles'...

              If no joy can you try copy+paste this snippet into the Ruby Console + <enter>

              puts;puts(SCF_Dialog.getMyPlugins.split('|').join("\n"))

              This will tell us what is getting sent to the server...
              It ought to star with your Computer-Name:SketchUp-Version
              Then a list of available installed v2015 Plugins in order [both enabled and disabled]...

              If still no joy then we need to get Gรกbor onto it server-side...

                  More diagnosis needed...

                  Can you open Internet Explorer, ensure its version is up to date, then empty its cache.
                  Now restart SketchUp and retry the SketchUcation PluginStore dialog - any luck AutoInstalling something ?

                  Can you use the item under the menu Plugins [now renamed Extensions in v2015] > SketchUcation submenu item to 'Open Plugins Folder'.
                  It should open something like:
                  C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins
                  Are there any files in it ?

                  If you go up one folder to .../SketchUp and use Properties > Security > Edit does every entry listed have FULL read/write/modify permissions setup?
                  Change them if necessary, apply/OK...

                  Try AutoInstalling again...

                  Also open the SketchUcation > Plugins Manager dialog.
                  Is the folder listed in the top-bar ?
                  Are there any contents ?

                          That last part sounds like a Filewall issue.
                          Make sure SketchUp 2015 is set to allow it to make changes and access the Internet...

                          Can you download an RBZ from the PluginStore page - linked above.
                          Then install it using the Preferences > Extensions > Install button in v2015.
                          Does its file[s] appear in the Users Plugins folder.
                          Does it then appear in the Plugins Manager and My-Installs ?

                          This is weird... ๐Ÿ˜•

                                You have a 'Download' button in the page - I did NOT mean the dialog [which has the AutoInstall button]...

                                Or is something blocking your browser and its ability to access the Internet and 'Download' files too - are you using Internet Explorer to access sketchUcation.com ?

                                It's also affecting the PluginStore downloads and the related download and AutoInstall via the dialog within SketchUp, which uses Internet Explorer [incidentally, what version do you use?].

                                Try and reset your IE Internet Options to use the default settings, perhaps they are too strict ?

                                Have you also emptied the IE cache as I suggested previously...

                                  I did download the .rbz and installed it from the Window/Preferences/Extensions Menu.
                                  I'm using Firefox but the plugin seems to be able to connect to internet because I can see the list of plugins when I click the Sketchucation Plugin Store button.
                                  IE version is 11.0.9600.17358. I did empty the cache.
                                  I really don't think it's a browser-related issue: it works fine with my SU 8 version. ๐Ÿ˜•

                                  I really don't want this to take too much energy from anyone: I can still install my plugins manually! ๐Ÿ˜„

                                    The dialog can receive data from the server, but downloading the file seems to be the issue [which then fails to AutoLoad through the dialog].
                                    If you try the AutoLoad download with the Ruby Console open are there any error messages.
                                    You ought to get some useful error-dialogs but maybe the unforeseen peculiar set of circumstances is not calling those...

                                    Can you also try this in the Ruby Console [copy/paste+<enter>] - it will open the temporary destination folder for the downloaded RBZ file...
                                    UI.openURL("file:///#{SCF::TEMPDIR}")
                                    It should open the temp folder, pathed something like:
                                    C:/Users/Leminlab/AppData/Local/Temp/SCF

                                    Try to AutoInstall a Plugin from the dialog.

                                    If that folder shows no RBZ being added to it [perhaps very briefly], then the download is failing.
                                    But if it shows an RBZ arriving [even fleetingly] then the installer is failing to process the RBZ.
                                    If it leaves an RBZ in that folder... then can you rename it with a .ZIP suffix and try opening it - are its contents OK, or is it 'corrupted' ?

                                      The dialog can receive data from the server, but downloading the file seems to be the issue [which then fails to AutoLoad through the dialog].
                                      If you try the AutoLoad download with the Ruby Console open are there any error messages.
                                      You ought to get some useful error-dialogs but maybe the unforeseen peculiar set of circumstances is not calling those...

                                      Can you also try this in the Ruby Console [copy/paste+<enter>] - it will open the temporary destination folder for the downloaded RBZ file...

                                      Here's the Ruby Console message when I try an Autoinstall:

                                        That error report is very helpful.
                                        It is failing on this:
                                        pd = Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")
                                        Can you then try this:
                                        pd.downcase
                                        Can you try it in the Ruby Console a report back...

                                        It seems strange that your SketchUp cannot find your Plugins folder ?

                                          I should have mentioned I have created a symbolic link for C:\Program Files\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\Tools pointing to a folder on another hard drive. I thougt this Tools folder was containing the rubies. Could this be the cause of all this?

                                            Yep, the symbolic link was the cause! I deleted it, repaired the installation and it's working now!
                                            Sorry for the trouble...

                                            But making a symbolic link from C:\Users\leminilab\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins to another location doesn't work anymore though...

                                            Thanks a lot TIG!
