Newly Installed Plugins Disappear After Restart

[c_will]

Newbie here. I'm having difficulty installing any and all plugins. The installation process proceeds without any red flags, errors, etc, but after Gephi restarts, all of the plugins I installed are missing from Installed (shows the same count as before the install)

Selecting SigmaExporter for install. Note 75 plugins currently installed.


Installation successful. Asking for restart.


If I click "Restart Later" I can see SigmaExporter in the list of installed plugins (count is now 76), but needing a restart.


After restarting Gephi, the plugin has disappeared from the list of installed plugins. I'm now back at 75 installed plugins.


I'm running Gephi 0.9.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. This is a work machine, so I have to request temporary admin privileges to make changes in the Program Files directories. Tried installing outside of Program Files in My Documents and a network drive with the same result. Other colleagues have gotten it to work without a hiccup on their work machines, so I'm not sure why the plugins aren't working on mine. Any help would be appreaciated!

Does it work if you manually close and start again instead of restart?

No, same result

I have exactly same problem with gephi 0.9.2 installed in ubuntu 16.04! Is there a solution?

I notice that Gephi does not RESTART at all. After manual restart NETBEANS does not show up like in Windows10. Is this this warning related: WARNING] use of system property netbeans.user has been obsoleted in favor of InstalledFileLocator/Places at org.gephi.ui.upgrader.Upgrader.getCurrentVersion(Upgrader.java:123) [INFO].

Same problem. Gephi 0.9.2, Ubuntu 16.
It seems it install a plugin but is not there when I restart (and yes, it does not restart automatically)

Dear fellow Linux-Ubuntu users, are the following warnings reporting to the above issue? ...

I found a way to get updates & plugins incorporated after "successful installing" by forcing manually the right restart: Test if Java is functioning by running the following command in the terminal: /home/username/ ./bin/gephi --jdkhome $JAVA_HOME ...: netbeans will update/run and finalizing the installation the updates & plugins. However I am still struggling how to formulate the right configuraton file to get things right from the start.
