"extensions not wokring in RM5rc and svn-trunk-builds"

Hi,

I just wanted to play around with some of the extensions (weka, text, reporting) in RM5RC (and also a build from svn (rev9)). However, I failed twice.

1) FIrst i tried to use the update manager, selected an extension, accepted the license, and pressed ok, when this exception showed up:
Exception: java.io.FileNotFoundException
Message: .\lib\plugins\managed\rmx_weka-5.0.0.jar (The system cannot find the path specified)
Stack trace:

  java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908)

2) I downloaded the plugins from sf.net and put them into lib/plugins. However, then RM hangs while showing the splashscreen (showing the message "Loading Weka"/"Loading Text"...)


Is there any trick to get plugins working in the latest dev-builds or is the plugin-system still too buggy to be used?

Feel welcome if you need further details.

Best, Holger
