Title: Download is NOT working
Post by: Ivan Trebješanin on April 27, 2007, 16:46:01
I just want to inform admins that link for Elxis download is NOT working. I've got complaints from many potential users. I will post a download link at my site, just in case of some major problem... After this problem is solved, I will be back to redirecting converted Joomlamans to Elxis.org.  ;)

Thank you for mentioning it!!!

Now everything should be fine.

Downloads are handled by a custom component (Elxis File Server), and are balanced between more than one server.

One of the servers showed a strange behavior during the last few days (or more). Download requests addressed to that server, resulted to the problems you are refering to.

This server is for the moment deactivated.

Great! I removed that download link from my site and back to redirecting people to elxis.org.  :D

Thanks for reporting the problem!

Ivan it is not recommended to add direct link to files as the Elxis downloads are handle by the File Server component. Give as download link the detailed page to the mtree component instead.

No, no, I know that, it just happened that three webmasters (my mates) listened my advice to move on to elxis, instead of joomla, so they tried to download, and got error message instead. I've brought them elxis installation on a USB flash, and by the time I got back home, eliasan here informed me that the problem with elxis.org was gone... In the meantime, noone have downloaded it from my site, so no harm done. I know how important it is at this marketing stage to keep track of downloads, so I've removed the direct link instanly.

BTW
Did you recieve my e-mail with Serbian admin language?
