RapidMiner Update: 5001 --> 5-3 works, but doesn't

Hi,
unfortunately there still was a bug in the beta and release candidate versions. We have fixed it for the final version. But this does not help you  updating, because the bug is in the updating mechanism itself and prevents the files to be replaced properly. So you need to install the final release version manually. It can be downloaded from our website http://rapid-i.com.

Greetings,

I have downloaded RM5 final release (I suppose) its size is less than the RC version.. about 50 MB.

but I found that the final release is not full with the extension... I still have to manually download the extension...
I frequently failed to update... and where can I download the extension manually? The failing problem is usually failling in unpacking the extension.

and where can I set the proxy for updating RM5?

greetings

Hi,

I'm also searching for the proxy configuration in RM5.

Greetings
Sabine

Hi,
the proxy settings can be entered in the Tools / Preferences Menu, and then in the tab System. This tab is available since 5.0.003.

Did you found it?

Greetings,
  Sebastian

Yes, I do, thanks!

But it doesn't work at my office.  ???
I asked my admin and tried different settings (for http and socks), but it doesn't work.

Any idea?

Greetings
Sabine

Hi Sabine,
I think we have to do some diagnostics first to find the problem. So let me ask two questions:
- Do you see the web page on the welcome screen of RapidMiner?
- What appears if you copy the link of the update server to your web browser? It can be found in the properties in the update tab.

Greetings,
  Sebastian

Ok,
this sounds as it should be if a proxy is needed but not or wrongly configured. In the meanwhile I tested the settings and they seem to be applied. I will set up a proxy myself and test it with that. It's a bad luck that the developer who is responsible for that is currently at the CeBit.

Your admin is quite sure he entered the correct values? Just for having covered the most simple solution

Greetings,
  Sebastian

Hi again,
I set up a locale proxy server and the update as well as the web page on the welcome screen work again, as soon as you enter the address of the proxy, the correct port and check the http.proxySet property. So there must be a configuration error in the proxy settings.

Greetings,
  Sebastian

anyone can help us to update rapidminer? i have the same problem smilar to others, i gives error.

i solved the problem . start progem with administer rights and update it, then start it admister rights again for uploading updates,and use it usual ways.

Hi,
I have the same problem in RM 5.1 version. I am a student and I stay in our university campus. For internet access here in the campus we have to enter the http proxy and port number and also username and password. For everything(antivirus update, Firefox, IE, etc) we enter the same things here in our campus. But in the Rapid Miner except http proxy and port number in the preferences I could not find username and password (for accessing the internet), so I am not able to update anything in Rapid Miner. Actually I wanted to get Text mining extension, but because of the above problem I could not update them. Can you help me what to do? Thank You in Advance! 

Hi,
the problem given below is occurring when I am trying to update. Can anyone help me, what is this?
Actually I wanted to install text extension through the button "Help->update"  in Rapid Miner 5.1. Can I install Text extension or Text mining in other ways also, where there is no such problems like below?
