Description amsha.proag 2014-06-12 10:26:12 CDT 
Hello,

Following an update this morning, Fiji does not run the plugins that I had once downloaded into the /plugins folder, and I get the error "Plugin or Class not found" (in this case, for Mexican_Hat_Filter and MultiStackRegFix
which are both .class files).

When I install these plugins from Plugins>Install, the Log shows: "WARNING: The PluginClassLoader cannot be reset." while a message says the plugin was installed correctly; but then I get the same error as above when I try to run them.

As these plugins worked well until yesterday and are unrelated, I was wondering whether the update had modified something which clashes with exterior plugins...?

(I have tried re-installing Fiji from the website in case the Updater was faulty, but the behavior of the re-installed Fiji is the same.)

Do you know what I should do to work with these plugins normally ?

Thank you,
Amsha

PS : I'm not sure this is related, but the icon of ImageJ-win64.exe has also changed from the blue FIJI to a black and gold ImageJ logo after the same update.

Reading the bottom of this bug submission, I see that my Fiji status shows both 'Mexican Hat Filter' and 'MultiStackRegFix' plugins as out-of-date. I haven't found their updates yet however, should I just wait for them to be updated?
Why does an update in Fiji necessitate other plugins (which worked before) to be updated as well?

This bug is now fixed (as per https://github.com/imagej/ij1-patcher/commit/48a1cfe5f279ac4f6aae959521563001e4740307, i.e. ij1-patcher version 0.8.3). Said version also includes regression tests, therefore I am reasonably sure that the bug will not reappear anytime soon!

> I see that my Fiji status shows both 'Mexican Hat Filter' and 'MultiStackRegFix' plugins as out-of-date.

Actually, the updater lists them as "local-only". That means that the updater does not know those files and will not touch them.
