[FIXED] NetBeans IDE 8.2 failed to download plugin

Issue

I tried to download Java EE Base Plugin in my NetBeans 8.2. But it could not finish and below warning is displayed. Edit : I wanted to install the plugin because I wanna create new project, Web Application

Networking problem in http://plugins.netbeans.org/nbpluginportal/files/nbms/z8930_dukewizard-2.1.nbm

Check your proxy settings or try again later. The server may be unavailable at the moment. You may also want to make sure that your firewall is not blocking network traffic. Your cache may be out of date. Please click Check for Updates to refresh content.

What I have tried:

1. Turn off windows firewall
2. Turn proxy setting to no proxy

Anyone know how to fix this issue? Thank you

Solution

You might want to try an alternative update center which one of the Netbeans community members set up: http://plugins.archive.librebeans.org/catalogue/8.2/catalog.xml

A list of update centers for other (older) versions can be found in the Netbeans Confluence: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Where+to+download+plugins+for+NetBeans+10.0+and+earlier
