Otsikko: Download Issues... SMF zip files not downloading right
Kirjoitti: TEXAS_SNIPER - kesäkuu 08, 2006, 07:52:59 IP
For some reason the smf installation files are not downloading right for me. I know the zipped file is suppossed to contain several different files and folders but instead there is just a plain text document called "changelog.txt" and it's 192,00 kb big... The "smf_1-0-7_install.zip" file is 1,131 kb. I can't figure it out... Is this a server side or client side problem...? Or maybe something having to do with my computer? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've been trying to download it all day and I just tried it again and I get the same thing.... I tried downloading some zipped files I have on my server and they downloaded fine. I also downloaded a zipped theme from this site also and I again got the same thing. The files do not download right. My only guess is that it has something to do with the site or maybe my browser... I use Firefox with the latest version (1.5.0.4)

What about using another browser if you can?

I just tried downloading it from Netscape and IE and it still won't work. It says the zip file is corrupt or incomplete.

Thanks.

Update: I hooked up my laptop and I was able to download the files with no problem... So I guess there must be some issue with my computer. But like I said, I was able to download zipped files from other sites with no problem except for this one so I'm stumped.... At least I have the files so thanks anyways.  ;)
