K3tchup Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Could Ketarin get alternative URL option for file download source? Or could Ketarin choose another sourceforge file host if the originally provided is down? Most of the time I want to download from nearest file provider but if that fails could Ketarin try alternative URL if provided? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floele Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 I believe that a smiliar feature has already been suggested. I guess I can consider that one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CybTekSol Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Ah... SourceForge... now that's a site that is p_____ me off. About half of my downloads from there are corrupted due to how they are 'serving up' their downloads. Flo... this is becoming one of my greatest frustrations. Have you done any experimenting with them lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphinx Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 i download a couple of programs from sourceforge and i don't get any corrupt files.. this is for KeePass for example, but i use pretty much the same regex for all the others that i download from sourceforge <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <Jobs> <ApplicationJob xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Guid="06154f43-c976-473c-8078-af52701c5469"> <WebsiteUrl /> <UserNotes /> <LastFileSize>1934507</LastFileSize> <LastFileDate>2010-03-13T20:48:18.1632409</LastFileDate> <IgnoreFileInformation>false</IgnoreFileInformation> <DownloadBeta>Default</DownloadBeta> <DownloadDate xsi:nil="true" /> <CheckForUpdatesOnly>false</CheckForUpdatesOnly> <VariableChangeIndicator /> <CanBeShared>true</CanBeShared> <ShareApplication>false</ShareApplication> <ExclusiveDownload>false</ExclusiveDownload> <HttpReferer /> <Variables> <item> <key> <string>version</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <RegexRightToLeft>false</RegexRightToLeft> <VariableType>StartEnd</VariableType> <Regex /> <Url>http://keepass.info/download.html</Url> <StartText>Professional Edition</b></big><br /> <i>KeePass </StartText> <EndText></i></p></EndText> <Name>version</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> <item> <key> <string>url</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <RegexRightToLeft>false</RegexRightToLeft> <VariableType>RegularExpression</VariableType> <Regex>http://down.+?.exe</Regex> <Url>http://sourceforge.net/projects/keepass/files/</Url> <Name>url</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> </Variables> <ExecuteCommand /> <ExecutePreCommand /> <Category>- Säkerhet</Category> <SourceType>FixedUrl</SourceType> <PreviousLocation>G:\Program\- Säkerhet\KeePass 2.10\KeePass-2.10-Setup.exe</PreviousLocation> <DeletePreviousFile>false</DeletePreviousFile> <Enabled>true</Enabled> <FileHippoId /> <LastUpdated>2010-03-13T20:48:18.1632409</LastUpdated> <TargetPath>{programs}\{category}\{appname} {version}\{url:basefile}.{url:ext}</TargetPath> <FixedDownloadUrl>{url}</FixedDownloadUrl> <Name>KeePass</Name> </ApplicationJob> </Jobs> the regex code is very simple, but they seem to be working, at least for the moment, i also notice on keepass i don't get version info from sourceforge, but from keepass's homepage, but i guess you can do either if you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
