    Hello,

    there seems to be something wrong with the server my MODx runs on. When I attempt to expand an item in the tree under the search box in the package download window, I get an error message (about an empty provider reply) and in the MODx error log, I find the following:

    I am at a loss. What is happening here?
    Thanks a lot!

    EDIT: How can I keep the forum software from adding anchor tags inside code, please? I didn't put them (See last line of code). [ed. note: neo2.0 last edited this post 12 years, 7 months ago.]

      You need to have cURL enabled on your PHP installation.
