GGTS 3.0 Fresh Install - Grails Plugin Manager list empty

I just installed GGTS 3.0 in the path: c:\gts and created a grails project. When I run the Grails Plugin Manager from the context menu the window appears but I do not see any plugin in the list.

Copied from Error Log:

Code:

I checked the permission on the above .grails path, and it seems ok.

From Console:

Please help.

It looks like there's some problem downloading the list of plugins from grails central. I cannot say what is causing it. But there are some guesses:

- temporary problem with grails-central (the plugin list sometimes gets corrupted on the site)
- a network/firewall issue on your end.

I just tried fetching the list of plugins and it seems ok, so if it was a temporary problem, seems like it is fixed now.
If it is not... could it be a network/firewall issue on your end?

If so, you may need to tell grails to use proxies to access the internet.
There is a specific grails command for that. See here:

http://grails.org/doc/2.1.0/ref/Comm...set-proxy.html

If that is not working, you may als try setting Java system properties related to proxies.
The system properties are documented here:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs...t/proxies.html

You can set them via the Grails preferences via menu:
"Window >> Preferences >> Groovy >> Grails >> Launch".
There's a table there you can add properties to. Anything added here should be passed on to any grails command executed by STS.
