BLE-Central Demo: Plugin Resolution Error

[SSBC]

Greetings,

I have a fresh install of XDK 3641 on Mac OS 10.11.4 and I attempted to open the BLE-Central demo. When I do, I receive a 'Plugin resolution Error' as shown below.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

You can cancel plugin resolution and exit this project.

Turns out there is a way to specify using an alternate version of git, which I was unaware of. Try doing this:

• open the "gear" icon in the upper right of the XDK
• choose the 'git' tab
• type in the path to your system's git command

See this image for an example:

Yes i already tried this and it didn't work same output same error

Amr -- I sent you a private message. Also, could you copy the complete error message you are seeing. Please give me a copy of the error message you receive when you use the custom git path and what you get when you make that path blank. I'd like to see both.

Paul -- i sent you a private message with all the informations you need

Glad to see you guys are still working on this.

FWIW, I did a clone of the github repository (actually, did a ZIP file download to be specific) without problems. When I go to open this project (not creating a new demo project) I still get the XDK failure "plugin resolution error" - so I'm pretty sure this is *not* unique to Amr's environment.

I imagine once you find the root cause it will fix it for both of us. Let me know if you need further details from my system.

SSBC -- thanks for the update, I sent Amr a revised version of that sample to see if it works for him. I changed the way that plugin was referenced. I'll send you a PM with the same ZIP to see if it works for you. --Paul

Hi all,

I'm following this thread and am experiencing the same "Plugin Resolution Error".  

"You can cancel plugin resolution and exit this project"
Has there been any understanding, development of a fix?

I'm running OS X10.12.2 and am can't even open the provided template in the "Samples and Demos" folder of Start
a New Project tab in the Intel XDK.

Gene -- I did not get a response from Amr, so I do not know if the suggestions I made for his project have resolved the problem. I'll send you a PM to get a copy of your project.

_Paul,

FWIW, the private image you sent me on or about 11/21 resolved the plugin resolution issue for me on this particular project.
