Error using TDownload

Post by jfrasier »

I am using PWB 2.05 and ManageDL and TDownload. I have mapped a shared network folder to drive z:. I have setup TDownload to use ZA.

When I try to save an attachment from webmail (have tried hotmail and openwebmail) to Z I get the error, 'An error occurred while opening the file to be downloaded, Error: 5'. However I can successfully save the same file to a:.

What to do, what to do.

Sorry ManageDL and TDownload do not currently work with web based email file attachments. We are working on a fix for this.

Web-based email attachments are a nightmare even without using the download manager lol... I think hotmail goes through at least 3 links before you get the actual file, including a redirect link somewhere in there. At least with Yahoo, you can right-click on an image file, click "save image as," and get a link to the actual file.
