Launchbase Syringe/Ares updating problems
#10
Version 0.99.228 is up. I'm not sure why the Ares check would fail when the Syringe one doesn't because they both use the same code to get the file size. And it was definitely working before.
Still looking into it...

EDIT:
As far as I can tell the problem is the server not returning the header information (specifically "Content-Length").
I found an identical case that said the problem was the ISP blocking the request to the particular file...

It might be possible to download the file without access to the headers but it might mess up my method for detecting timeouts.


EDIT 2:
It looks like this is still a problem. For some reason the server won't give Launch Base the content length of the Ares RSS feed. I will look into rewriting the Ares update check to ignore this and try to download the feed anyway.

EDIT 3:
Work around implemented in version 0.99.229
Ever wondered what the hell is going on?
Believe me friend you're not the only one.
