Grasshopper latest version installation error

Hi,

I am trying to install grasshopper in my Rhino 5 SR5 version. I download new rhi file.

When I double click the file, it comes up the message - This package is not compatible with the Rhino Installer Engine.

I haven't never had this before. I am not sure what's going on.

And, I tried to go on to Rhino installer Engine page on Rhino wiki page. It keeps telling me - 500 Internal server error.

Thanks!

Ken

We are having similar issues - reproduced on a handful of machines.

We are using Rhino 5 SR5 with an educational floating license.

The Rhino installer engine does not seem to recognize rhi files either by double-clicking on them or dragging them into a viewport.

It seems to be an issue with Rhino's service release, here is a suggested workaround:

HAVE SOLVE THIS PROBLEM -
1) change Grasshopper.rhi type to .zip - than unpuck to C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 5 (64-bit)\Plug-ins\Grasshopper folder
2)Open Rhino, skip all error messages
3) Go to Tools - options - plugins, than press "install"
4) Find a Rhino.rhp file, located at C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 5 (64-bit)\Plug-ins\Grasshopper (you have created it at step 1 and open it
5) if you have message, that it has been created at other computer, check this link: http://wiki.mcneel.com/rhino/unblockplugin
6) If all is ok, you should see the grasshopper install window
