xoop - 2.0.18
Fresh install

If I add a file to down via admin, I can see the file.

If I try and download it, I get this error...

"the URL is not valid and can not be loaded"

If I try to add another file that is completely different via admin interface, I get this error...
"ERROR: The download info you provided is already in the database!"

Please advise....

thank you

Hi,
i have the same problem with submitting a download through admin section add/edit downloads, same error like you have "ERROR: The download info you provided is already in the database!".

You can try to upload a file through ftp to a map on the server of youre own choice after that you can add this file manually in the box download url:
( by example : http/www.yoursite.com/modules/mydownloads/software/test.rar )
Also you have to give this map "by example : software " the correct setting ( chmod 0777)
If everythings turns out well you should see now the download in the catergorie of youre own choice.

Greetz,
Peter

Try'd to uninstall it as well, but i think that since i run XOOPS 2.3 rc 2 that this maybe is a compatibility problem.

I clad that everything works out for you

Greets,

onto problem #2....

I can upload through the module files I want to be part of the Downloads page no problem.

If I FTP up a file to a directory on my web host, then manually add the address (-ie http://XXXXX.com/x/uploads/brad.zip) I get an error. I did give excute rights to the brad.zip also.

The error I get is a simple "he page you tried to access does not exist on this server. This page may not exist due to the following reasons: "

any help would be appreciated for manually attaching a download to the download module.
