Is the text true ??

 "jarPath" : "/absolute/path/to/jd2/extensions/JDHttpApi.jar"

You need to change this value (second to last line) to wherever you installed the file. Based on your other settings, maybe:

"jarPath" : "D:\Download\JDownloader 2\extensions\JDHttpApi.jar"

same problem

JDownloader2 does not want to add JDHttpAPI

"jarPath" : "D:\Download\JDownloader 2\extensions\JDHttpApi.jar"
} ]

I assume you put the jar file in that folder, too - everything you posted looks fine. All I can say is maybe you can look in the logs for the text HttpApi in case there is an error message. Maybe JDownloader broke the install instructions or something.

[prince911]

yes JDHttpApi in extensions

how i can get log for HttpApi

Hi.
I have similar issue, can't add JDHttpAPI to JDownloader2.

I edited extensionInfos.json and added the new element:.
{
"settings" : true,
"configInterface" : "org.jdownloader.extensions.httpAPI.HttpAPIConfig",
"quickToggle" : false,
"headlessRunnable" : true,
"description" : "Http API.",
"lng" : "en_US",
"iconPath" : "folder_add",
"linuxRunnable" : true,
"macRunnable" : true,
"name" : "HTTP API",
"version" : -1,
"windowsRunnable" : true,
"classname" : "org.jdownloader.extensions.httpAPI.HttpAPIExtension",
"jarPath" : "D:\Users\Max\AppData\Local\JDownloader 2.0\extensions\JDHttpApi.jar"
}

When i start JDownloader2, the file extensionInfos.json is automatically overwrited by JDownloader2, so the changes i introduced in step 4 are lost, and the file extensionInfos.json is reverted to its original state. I tried editing the file, and then setting it as "read only", but jdownloader2 keeps overwriting it on every startup.

Please, help. :(

Thank you.

The logs can be found in the "logs" folder inside your JD install directory (you can search for it).

I'll see if I can still use the extension when I get home, but like I said - it's absolutely an 'unofficial' install and it's possible that the JD dev team have broken this somehow.
