Can not download plugins for jEdit (help!)

Hi all. I am trying to use jEdit, but can’t seem to download
any plugins. I go to Plugin Manager, and select Download
options. I update the mirro and can see lots of servers.
I select the first (plugin central default) and say apply.
In the Update dialogues bottom window, I see a msg saying
"Dowloading plugin list from jedit.plugins.org but after
a couple seconds it disappears. Inveitably when I select
Console and the click install, it give me "An I/0 error
occurred (Connection refused: connect)

If anyone knows why i can’t connect, in info about it would be
a big help.

Thanks in advance…

Hello Bill,

I think, a better forum for jEdit related questions is
http://community.jedit.org/ . But I like using jEdit for Ruby, too. I’m
on Windows. As Mirror, I choose “Lausanne, Swizerland” and this works
fine for me.

You can install plugins manually, see
jEdit - Plugin Installation. But installing automaticly works
very fine at my side.

I’ve had this happen. Try to go to your settings (global settings, I
think) & change the download mirror, and then try again.
