[File rename, timeouts, error on ftp and wrong version on download]

1+2 just try it.

3: This won't work, because it is a client side redirection. I don't currently know if there is a way to download from MG, but I don't have the time to figure out a way for each and every website people throw at me

5. That is because there is lots of %f2 within the URL, which should be replaced by /

7. Yes, you should. But you could copy the database file as well.

[Connectivity issue when updating apps]

Ketarin has as many connections as specified in the settings. You can reduce the number of threads to just 1 if necessary.

[Updating files with changing file names]

What about using three variables for each part of the version? Other possibility would be to add functions to variables, like

 

[replace|{version}|.|]

 

or something similar. That again would be somewhat more work on my side though

[File rename, timeouts, error on ftp and wrong version on download]

I added a couple of fixes for 1 and 2.

 

3: The first link does not exist, the second link times out for me even in Firefox.

4. Yep, has been requested already.

5. Actually, the URL is hidden in the source code, like at

http%3a%2f%2fdownload.microsoft.com%2fdownload%2f6%2fc%2f4%2f6c406239-a648-4e01-833e-2c452deed3b6%2fSyncToySetupPackage.exe

6. Nope, but I'm not updating it before the final version (too lazy).

[Updating files with changing file names]

Did you try using a different SF.net mirror?

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

I won't mind

[More preferences such as default save location]

I don't know yet...

[Connectivity issue when updating apps]

I don't think that I can do anything about that. I have the same problem with a certain FTP application when uploading for example.

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

503 is not really a timeout. It rather sounds like the server denies the connection, but I could't reproduce it yet.

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

How many threads to you use?

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

OK, I think I have found the problem. Try http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/downloads/Ketarin/Ketarin-0.9.9.5.zip

[Proxy Settings]

Yeah, I see. Will fix it for the next version.

[Updating files with changing file names]

Basically, you have to use the latest version and then directly link to the files on the mirrors, like http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tortoisesvn/TortoiseSVN-1.5.5.14361-x64-svn-1.5.4.msi

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

What site is it? Maybe it doesn't like multiple connections?

['Spoof HTTP referer:' lost when closing Ketarin]

Looks like you are right. I uploaded a fixed version now.

[Automatic retreival of app version from FileHippo]

I'll add {version} for the next release. It can be overridden by a custom variable with the same name if necessary.

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

I released 0.9.9.3 now (still too lazy to update the version number in the about screen), which should work fine.

[Automatic retreival of app version from FileHippo]

Yep, I've been thinking about that already

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

It's not yet anywhere

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

Ah, I found another optimisation. Make sure to try the next version as well

[Updated documentation?]

Certainly possible, I jus have to think about some appropriate GUI for it.

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

Hm, that's a little strange. For me, there is actually a notable difference. 1 thread (previous version) takes 53s, the current version with 2 threads is 41s.

I'll look into a bit...

[Ketarin 0.9.9]

http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/downloads/Ketarin/Ketarin-0.9.9.2a2.zip should work.

[Scheduling?]

You can use the comand line option "/SILENT" and then use the Windows task scheduler. Ketarin does not perform any checks automatically.

[Control the update order and apps updated?]

Hm, does this version behave better?
