Did something change about the nightly downloads page? I used to be able to just copypasta the link I wanted to my shell and get files via wget but now all it gets is a corrupt file.

I can download the archive via windows and then upload it, but it appears that something is funky.

Also all the links start with http://www.zenphoto.org/pages/nightly-builds?download=4313&

Was that always like that? Anyways, I suppose it could have been something on my shell got screwy, but I don't remember upgrading anything that would have affected wget at all...

It has been for months it is that way actually…:-) Not your fault, the downloads (actually all hosted on our site) use the downloadList plugin so direct downloads are not possible anymore and we also get a download statistic (might be something for your theme downloads btw).

Yeah, I still used to be able to get them via wget, not sure why it's not working now. Oh well, I can just download to my windows box and upload after. I must have changed something without realizing it.

did they always have the double download= in the link though? One never changes if you check the links, and 2nd one does for each file. Is that because it's pointing it at a folder to download from and then 2nd is for the files it points at?

I am not seeing any double ?download= in the links. All look like http://www.zenphoto.org/pages/nightly-builds?download=

Ok, not sure what changed... but the double ?download= links are gone now and I can wget the files I swear I'm not seeing things.

At the time I started this, they all had:
http://www.zenphoto.org/pages/nightly-builds?download=4313&download=####

Might have been a html caching issue.

Ok so this has sprung up again.

Right now the nightly builds page has links similar to this:

http://www.zenphoto.org/pages/nightly-builds?download=4313&download=4975&download=6245

with the last # being the one that changes based on the link. I see the same thing no matter which browser I use. While I can still click and download the files at home, using wget via shell returns corrupted archives.

My normal browser is Chrome, but when it sprung up again, I downloaded Firefox just to make sure it wasn't Chrome keeping history files somewhere.

This is somehow a caching issue, probably if someone accesses the page while the cache is cleared or something. I cannot reproduce it btw, just tried with Safari (being loggedin on our site) and Firefox (loggeed out).

Btw, I recently tried to contact you via your other mail address and it bounce two times.

Ok, really the last name with one "l" only? Maybe you could just keep the forum profile up to date (its not public).

Good point, forgot about that. Updated it in the forum profile.
