Dear Hussein, changing the https to http URLs did the job! Nevertheless I will contact our IT concerning the Proxy settings.
Thanks a lot. Frank -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Hussein Shafie [mailto:huss...@xmlmind.com] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 12.

So is your proxy configured to let Oerlikon Neumag employees access "https://www.xmlmind.com/";? Please ask your IT department if this has been done. 2) The error message means something like: Java 1.8.0.171 does not recognize the authority (Sectigo Limited; formerly known as Comodo SSL) of the SSL certificate used by "https://www.xmlmind.com/";. This is probably a false error message because 1) Comodo SSL certificates are recognized everywhere; 2) I have no such problem when using Java 1.8.0_212 on my Linux box. Anyway a possible workaround is to select menu item "Options|Preferences", select the "Install add-ons" section in the dialog box. Then, for each URL found in the "Download add-ons from these servers" list, please select this URL, click button "Edit" and replace "https" by "http". See attached screenshot. --- PS: If nothing works, please refer to this FAQ: --- I cannot download and install any add-on using Options|Install Add-ons. Is there another way to download and install add-ons? --- https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/faq.html#download_addons CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.
