Title: Updater Problem
Post by: tssthorn on December 14, 2005, 03:32:30 am

It is able to download the registry file, but once it gets to 100% the updater closes. I think I might need to add my proxy setting into the updaterconfig file but my Proxy requires identification.

How can you download the registry file if you need a proxy with authentication? Downloading the registry file should be similar to downloading any other files.

If you have such a restricted network where you have no other ways accessing the outside world than a proxy with authentication, are you sure you can play Planeshift at all, since it requires network connection (UDP port 7777) to the server?

And if I am completely wrong and it is just an issue with the proxy and updater, try running updater -addresses, write down all the download addresses and then download them using a web browser (some files have different names and shall be renamed after you download them).

Like in the following example:

Code: [Select]

http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//art/art/world/deathrealm_all.zip
http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//root/psclient.cfg
http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//root/updaterconfig.xml
http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//root/vfs.cfg
http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//root/pssetup.cfg
http ://psmirror.u24.solone.net/psupdater//root/psupdater.cfg
Here I have a list of files with their addresses and I can download them using a web browser. World files, like ojaroad01_all.zip, shall be renamed after the download: ojaroad01_all.zip to ojarod01.zip etc.

It is a little bit tricky, but at least some kind of a solution ;)

EDIT: By some reasons these addresses in my example were changed to actual URLs that one could click and add extra load to the server.

I got it working but thank you very much any way for that information.
