General failure. Please try again. Server may be unavailable (2013) - blackberry-webworks

So today, whenever I try to sign My Blackberry app using the WebWorks packager, I get this error...
"General failure. Please try again. Server may be unavailable".
My proxy settings have not changed and I have been using the same command line instruction with success before.
I've also checked the status of the Blackberry signing server using the following link...
http://isthesigningserverdown.com/chart/index.php?sigType=RBB or RCR or RRT
And everything appears to be online!
So, where could I be going wrong? Here's the command line instruction I've been using. First, I navigate to my Blackberry build folder and run the following instruction against it...
bbwp appname.zip –g <password> –o z:\projects\appname\signed
It goes through through parsing the various elements. The signing tool pops up and then the error is generated.

So, after a couple of days of banging my head against the wall-the answer finally came to me. I'm on a MAC but am also using a Windows virtual machine for Blackberry developement, which is running on another network altogether and this specific network is using a firewall, which, according to the network administrator, is currently experiencing a severe technical problem.
The way round it was to sign my Blackberry app using configured proxy settings to communicate with the signing server and viola! It worked!

plugin repository could not be contacted (Dokuwiki)

I am using Dokuwiki on my pc but suddenly getting this error. Now, i can't see the installed plugins and templates in Extension Manager(Admin). Just getting this error The plugin repository could not be contacted. Make sure your server is allowed to contact www.dokuwiki.org and check your proxy settings. [Retry]
I Installed it using xampp and dokuwiki(from youtube video)
I am using Windows 7 (64 bit).
Please help me regarding these problems, Thanks
Regarding invisible installed plugins. I'm occasionally experiencing the similar issue but had no time to investigate. Try the following steps:
Open Admin -> Extension manager.
Uncheck 'updatable' checkbox.
Switch to 'Installed templates' tab.
Switch back to 'Installed plugins' tab.
If did not help try to play with the state of other checkboxes and switching to another tab and back. Please share your findings afterwards.
Regarding the error message check this question.
If it worked before and now you are experiencing sudden problems then check what was changed in your computer or network settings.
Check proxy settings in Admin -> Configuration Settings -> DokuWiki\Network.
Check if you can access http://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/plugins/pluginrepo/api.php?cmd=ping in your browser to decide whether you need to continue investigation on network or xampp side.
You can always install plugins manually, you aren't going to do it every day.
Upgrading from PHP <=5.6 to 7.0 running Detritus (and later) fixed this behavior.

GWT 2.7 Super Dev Mode not working while testing on the same network

I recently began using GWT 2.7 in Eclipse Luna and I was running my projects seamlessly while testing them in localhost:8888, the thing is, when I tried to test them (any of them, even a new app with only the autogenerated content) with another device on the same local network using (pc running eclipse ip):8888 I get a message like this:
The page at (ip):8888 says: Couldn't load (app) from Super Dev Mode server at http://(ip):9876. Please make sure this server is ready. Do you want to try again?
This also happens when I try to access to the app in the pc running eclipse with (its own ip):8888.
I've checked these four similar questions, but they didn't have any really helpful answers, these are a few things I've tried or discovered already:
I enabled the 9876 port on the firewall
I've deleted the .nocache.js and .devmode.js so that they're generated again
I noticed that when this problem occurs it's because the browser can't get the (ip):9876/recompile-requester/(app) file
I tried deploying the app to GAE and it doesn't work there either, nothing that happens on the modules Java code runs (And for some reason, I get a "Uncaught java.lang.ClassCastException" message on the chrome console, but this only happens on the deployed version, it doesn't happen on localhost:8888 or in (local ip):8888)
But nothing has worked and the four questions I mentioned are pretty much the only things related to this I've found, so I really don't know what else to try.
As Thomas pointed out, the problem I had was that from GWT 2.6 onwards, if you want to test from other devices in the same network, you have to whitelist the addresses you'll be using in each *.gwt.xml file using a command line like this:
<set-configuration-property name="devModeUrlWhitelistRegexp" value="http://(localhost|127\.0\.0\.1|192\.168\.150\.(\d{1,3}))(:\d+)?/?.*" />
I also had to add a -bindAddress 0.0.0.0 attribute to the run config for it to work.

Single Sign On service hangs when configuring it

I am trying to create and configure the Bluemix Single Sign On service and I am facing issues.
I create it unbound of any app, and when trying to setup it on the first dialog (provide a service name which will be part of its URL) it gets hanged. The browser is unresponsive for 1 minute or so and finally it fails with error message: "env: Client internal Error"
I am facing the same issue with Firefox 38.0.5, Chrome 43.0.2357.81m and IE 11.0.9600.17801
Any suggestion? Searching the forums I found as recommendation to clean browser cache and cookies. I already did it with no success.
EDITED: In parallel, I added as manager and developer another colleague to my Bluemix Space and it worked fine to him. So it seems it fails with my user which also is manager and developer but it exists in other spaces, etc...
Any thing I can check to narrow the issue?
Thanks!
on yesterday there have been a maintenance/upgrade activity so probably it your problem could be related to this.
Could you check again if it is working right now?

Getting a HTTP ERROR 404 when I try to download Rational Test Workbench for Android. Why?

I am using IBM Mobile Test Workbench for Worklight 8.5.10 plugin for Eclipse and I am trying to add a device using my PC. I've done the same process on a Mac and it works fine no issues. However on my PC when I go to the Workbench URL in a browser, phone, or emulator I go to start the download and I receive this on all devices...
HTTP ERROR: 404 Problem accessing
/android/client/com.ibm.rational.test.mobile.android.client.ui-release.apk.
Reason:
Not Found
Does anybody have any idea why I would be getting this?
a good idea would be to check if your firewall is not blocking port 7878 or 8080 (the ones that are used by MTWW to communicate between device and workbench)
simple test for that : stop your firewall for 5 minutes, retry
if it works, it mean you'll have to configure this firewall to open this port
if you can't open this specific port, you can configure MTWW to change the default communication port (to use one that is open in your firewall) like this :
in MTW, open : windows => preferences => Test => performance Test
Report => Web report
check "Allow remote access from a web browser"
check "no security is required to access reports"
change value of "non-secure port" (default = 8080)
when done, it would be better to restart MTWW before retrying
if all of this fail, last solution is to manually install the client apk
apk is located there :
[IBM shared dir of your install]\plugins\com.ibm.rational.test.mobile.android.runtime_[some version number]\client
apk to install : com.ibm.rational.test.mobile.android.client.ui-release.apk
the simpler is use "adb connect [your device ip]" (if adb is not yet connected to your device), then "adb install [apkname]"

After much trial and errors I finally fixed my issue. Here's the last thing I did to get it working. I uninstalled everything from Java, Eclipse, and IBM. I then reinstalled everything and placed Eclipse in My Documents and I changed Java versions to 1.6. After all of that it seems to be working fine. It doesn't make much sense.

Launching from Eclipses causes errors in browser

I've got a strange situation; when I run a Flex app from Eclipse (i.e. click run as web app), my remote calls always hang.
In Firefox, they return as failed.
But when I open up a browser and browse to my .html file in the bin-debug folder, the remote calls work.
Why is that?
Thanks for any helpful tips!
p.s. I'm accessing a websphere server and authentication is required but a Java developer hardcoded his ID in.
One thing to check:
Do you have a breakpoint set in your code somewhere? Eclipse may be waiting for you to interact with it so the program execution can continue. On my Win7 machine, when the debugger takes over, eclipse often does not take over focus; so I have to manually minimize IE.
My problem was solved today and the issue was getting through to the IBM websphere server; the authentication was still in place and the java developers had to create a cloned environment where authentication was not required. Thank you everyone for their helpful answers.
