Hi Devon,

After reading this, I tried running the package manager on my WindowsXP laptop 
and found out that my xml/sax was out of date. I also asked my wife who's in 
mainland china and she also got connected properly.

Maybe if you manually download the package catalog first ...

Worse case is that I can give you an updated copy of J and put it on my FTP 
site so you can download it.

Subject: [Jprogramming] Package manager failure information

Hi Everybody -

In the past, I've been able to use J's Package Manager while at work thanks
to Dan's tip about defining and HTTP_PROXY environment variable.  However,
in recent months it has always failed with a "Connection Error" upon trying
to get the catalog from the internet with error message "Unexpected error",
which is not very helpful.

Has anyone run into this?  Is there any way to get more information about
why it's failing?

Thanks,

Devon
