add in - Error installing addons in GRASS 7.0.2: File is not a zip file?


When I attempt to install an addon in GRASS Setting->Install Extension from Addons and select the addon i want from the list (r.stream.order) i get the following error: "ERROR: File is not a zip file: http://wingrass.fsv.cvut.cz/grass70/addons/grass-7.0.2/r.stream.order.zip"


I get a similar error no matter what addon I attempt to install.


Is there a way to download the zip files and install locally? If so where should I download these? When I follow the addon links and locate the the location of this addon online, it does not contain any zip files. (https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/grass7/raster/r.stream.order/)


What are the correct steps in successfully installing an addon?



Answer



Version 7.0.2 is an older one. The current release is 7.0.4:



If you are speaking about MS Windows, the older addons are still online but you would need to copy the files manually:




Installation trough g.extension is no longer supported for this version. Install the latest release or as @gene says, use Linux or Mac where the addons will be compiled exactly for your version.
