Can't install plugins or addons

CroCo

For some time I have not been able to install plugins or addons. It has been a problem with more versions of Black Hole. Right now I use 2.1.1 clean install.
When I try to install a plugin I get following message:

"Done - Installed, upgraded or removed 0 packages with 0 errors"

But the plugin is not installed. The same message coms if I try to remove a pre installed plugin.
-I have tried to flash from USB (with different versions of BH)
-Factory reset
Nothing seems to help, does anyone know have to solve this problem?

Use BH addons (green>yellow). It's not recomended to use Software Manager for installing Plugins.

Seems you have some problems on your network setup on into your network in general because you cannot download files from Feeds.
Please use Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) instead of your ISP or your router DNS settings and report here if the problem persist.

Still the same error with Google DNS. But if I can see the addons i think internet i working fine, I can also use hbbTV with no problems.
Can it be a problem with write access in the flash or something like that???

I think your flash is OK but your box generates an error when uses the "wget" linux utility to retreive packages list from feed server.

I have no knowledge about linux:( Is there anyway to solve this wget error?

Can be a corrupt file when you have installed something.
You can try to reflash a clean image and first of all (after network configuration) try to install the plugin you need.

Already tried that.. Latest with BH 2.1.1.
Is there a way to clean the flash and HDD before a new install? Don't want to format the HDD, because I have a lot of recordings I want to save.

Unplug the HDD, then clean install and see if addons work.

Yes, this solved my problem. Now it even works with the HDD installed again.
Many thanks to everybody helping solve my problem, and very fast too
