HOTFIX list download error...

[lor]

Hi:

I execute XPCRETATE.CMD with a SP-SP2 (slipstreamed) spanish cd.

I get this error:

Please post your LOGFILES.CAB file, and I can take a look.

Here you are:

it's in the NEWFILES dir

LOGFILES.CAB

The problem is due to confussion between ESP and ESN as the identifier for Spanish. I have made the hotfix list available to both ESN and ESP, but note that this list is quite old, and does not include SP2.

Thank you

(SP2 lists will be out ... soon ... )

Same problem English version.

I cannot see where your error is: it is not the same as the Spanish version error. Perhaps a firewall or proxy issue.

The Automatic Downloading feature should be considered a "plus": It works for most people, but not all. For those that it does not work for I am sorry, but I have very little motivation to debug this issue: it is neither stimulating nor chalenging, amd more often than not the problem is due to the end user's configuration, or firewall and proxy issues. It is by no means an "interesting" problem. For those user's that cannot use this feature, the Current Hotfix List on the Web Site exists.

Ah, NYDITOT!

Its probably that blasted Zone alarm Security Suite again, I am at work right now but I will try it when I get back. Thanks for the response GreenMachine.

[EDIT] it was the firewall, agh! Guess I shouldnt be working on stuff a 2am

[GreenMachine]

I guess it must have been the firewall ...
