InetGet problem

[FiNAlzFiNAle]

Hi,

I have a problem with my InetGet function. It cannot download file from my web server.

But if I use InetGetSize, it can give me the size of the file.

I have checked my firewall and it has allowed AutoIt v3 scripts to access the Internet.

HttpSetProxy is set to 1 as I have no proxy.

If it is impossible to solve this, can anyone recommend any other ways to download a file from the Internet (using AutoIt)

Thanks!

URL? code snippet? Failure mode description? Absent that , test w/ curl or wget.

here is my code :

$getUpdate = InetGet ("http://fupdates.t35.com/test.fsf", "test.fsf", 1)
If $getUpdate = 0 Then MsgBox (64, "Failure", "Update File could not be downloaded")

There are no error messages from AutoIt

Downloads fine using 3.1.1 or beta.

I got the beta version, but it still won't download for me.

Anyway, I tried the FTP from w0uter to upload files, but there is no function to download using FTP.

Is there a way to do so ?

[Valuater]

are you using SciTE... if you are press tools > Run Beta

but MHz says in works on both platforms

????

I tried it in SciTe, but to no avail.

I also tried compiling the script and ran it on my other computer, still didn't work ... I wonder what could be wrong.

Here is the problem (I think):

Internet Explorer 3 or greater must be installed for this function to work.

Strait from the help file...

yes, I have Internet Explorer version 6.0

[=sinister=]

thats odd...

try this -

$getUpdate = InetGet ("http://fupdates.t35.com/test.fsf", "C:\test.fsf", 1)
If $getUpdate = 0 Then MsgBox (64, "Failure", "Update File could not be downloaded")

This will download it to C:\. If this doesn't work, then post what type of computer you have here.

you might want to check...

1. the file size you get is it the same as the target's size?

- may be wrong/different file name

- page of denial of service

2. firewall log see if anything is blocking

3. can you download the file using other means than autoit3?

1. the file size I uploaded was correct, and InetGetSize returned the correct file size too.

2. my firewall is set to allow AutoIt scripts

3. yes I can, but I would rather not.

InetGetSize can work, but InetGet cannot.

One question, can I use the FTP thing from w0uter to download the file ?

There is a _FTPPutFile(), but there isn't a _FTPGetFile() or something.

Can you retest with the 3.1.1.108 beta version and send me the @error/@extended you are getting?

Thanks

hm ... InetGet with beta ver 3.1.1.108 did not return @error, but it still could not download the file.

Unless I did a mistake it should return @error if an error occur.

Can you PM or post the script you are using which display the @error?

Thanks

This may sound like a stretch, but what else is running when you try to do this? Are you using a download manager or something? Have you tried to make just a example script that just downloads the file, and nothing else? If the example file is real slow, then something in your PC could be causing the slowdown. You could try to see what processes are running, and shutdown what you do not need, then test again.

Some spyware that intercepts all Internet traffic through the LSP layer is known to cause symptoms like this. Check with HiJackThis or AdAware if you are not running an updated copy of a reputable anti-spyware solution.

$getUpdate = InetGet ("http://fupdates.t35.com/test.fsf", "test.fsf", 1)
If $getUpdate = 0 Then MsgBox (64, "Failure", "Update File could not be downloaded")

by default AutoIt returns 0 for failure, but does not set @error

I am very sure that my computer has no spyware, and my firewall has been set to allow AutoIt scripts.

If possible, can anyone of you please compile my example script and let me try, might be a problem with my AutoIt.

to be secure your code to verify should be

$getUpdate = InetGet ("http://fupdates.t35.com/test.fsf", "test.fsf", 1)
$err=@error
If $getUpdate = 0 Then MsgBox (64, "Failure error=" & $err, "Update File could not be downloaded (" & @AutoitVersion & ")")

I want to be for sure you are using the right beta

Thanks for the help
