I am still baffled as to why installation of engLXX2012eb and engUKLXX2012eb work fine, but engBrent1851eb, the predecessor to both of the previous ones, does not. I did, however, manage to duplicate the failure in Bishop running on an Android phone. This isn't a server issue, though. On 2/28/

AHA! now I feel dumb... the couple of modules I just tried install fine IF I check the checkbox on the line item. apparently it's not adequate to just select the line. has that always been the case? I don't remember. I installed a bunch of modules years ago and now only seldom install anymore, so

Scott, thanks for the recipe. I've done that and everything looks as if I did it right, but when I attempt to install a module from eBible nothing is installed, or not that I can find, not even by perusing the filesystem under ~/.sword. I ran Xiphos from the commandline and did it again, but no er

Does the word "Finished" appear above it? If not it might be a network issue. Try going to https://ebible.org/sword in your browser and see if you can browse the files there. OpenPGP_0xC04F29D0BD866370.asc Description: OpenPGP public key OpenPGP_signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital sign

Hi David, Yes, under eBible.org, where it says "HTTP access", it should say "HTTPS and HTTP access". Also, any repository that also supports HTTPS and/or HTTP access should explicitly say so. As Greg mentioned, mobile often blocks FTP. FTP may not be dead, yet, but it is in hospice care. HTTP
