It's working again!

Whatever you did, it definitely fixed the issue. Downloaded 20 files successfully in a row, 10 big and 10 small ones, from 1996 to 2015, using both Injectors, from 2 separate windows setups (via wi-fi and ethernet). Here's the list:

arcdemo.zip
arcextra.zip
czg02.zip
digs03.zip
dxm2.zip
egany.zip
elektra.zip
fmb_bdg2.zip
func_mapjam2.zip
func_mapjam3.zip
honey.zip
jailbrk.zip
kaahoo1a.zip
mexx7.zip
pyramid.zip
retrojam2.zip
retrojam3dlc.zip
rrp.zip
something_wicked.zip
trincasp1.zip

No problem whatsoever. Smooth downloads and installation, as it used to be. Order in the Universe has been restored.

F U lighttpd! (whatever that is)

Thanks so much, Spirit. Thanks for taking care of your fellow quake marines. The 20th anniversary is coming, we should be replaying the best modern creations and the classic ones in preparation for that lovely event.

What a great gift for the holidays. Chthon is pleased with your offering.

This should hopefully be fixed now, I switched from lighttpd to nginx as reverse proxy. Please tell me if there are any issues.

Addendum:

I've downloaded a couple of the soundtracks from this link:

https://www.quaddicted.com/files/music/

I've had the same issue (broken files) and have had to download a few times before getting a full zip.  Looks like it's not necessarily a Quake Injector issue. :)

PS:  Created a second post just in case you'd already read the above post and wouldn't see an edit. :)

Hi.  I've had the same issue with some larger files (Nehahra, Quoth, Warspasm) over the past week or so.

I'm using Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) with the latest Java installed (updated last week).  I'm with Virgin Media and have a 50Mb connection.  It's a fast and robust connection for everything else I download.  Also, I'm based in the UK. :)

Hope that helps.  Between Simple Quake Launcher and Quake Injector Quake has never been easier to play and I really want them to continue!

Good luck. :)

Guys, it helps neither you nor me if you just report that "some zip file" did not work. We need more details. ISPs, regions, Java versions, etc etc :(

Deleting the ne_ruins.zip in the download folder does not work? Worked for me every time so far when I got that error.

im having the same problems - with ne_ruins.zip. A straight download doesnt let me extract from the file - says its corrupted (winrar, win7 64).. other maps seem ok (nehara also gives Zlib error in injector)...

any ideas?



Sorry guys - win7 64 / Chile / im deleting the zips in the injector folder and retrying - So far this is working (right now on travail) -



THANKS!!

Not successful, none of those things I listed were.

I'm from Argentina, and my ISP is Telecom Argentina. If you need more details, let me know.

Successful or not?

As I said, there is information needed if we want to debug this. I doubt it is your end.

I've had the same problem since beginning of this year, it was working flawlessly six months ago. I never upgraded to the latest alpha, the oldest one served me well all these years since release (hundreds of files played).

I can confirm it happens with any file, not just with the ones already mentioned. It doesn't matter if it is a small or a bigger one, download gets interrupted at random completion percentage, even after several retries. Got lucky only a couple of times, but with files under 5 mb (and I'm unable to reproduce the results). Firewall/AV seem to be working OK.


This is what I tried:

. Running from two laptops, an oldie (but trusty) XP setup and a newer one with Windows 8.1

. Both QI alphas. Reinstalling multiple times on several folders/partitions.

. Manually downloading 20 or so files, via download manager and plain old "save as".

. Repairing internet connection/renewing IP.

. Resetting/changing modems (not being tech savvy, I ran out of ideas).


Haven't tried yet with a new network card, or from a friend's home. Google hasn't shed any lights on the problem, only some obscure programming issues I didn't even understand.

After your recent site issues and server migration, I had hoped this would be fixed. But no dice, all these lovely Map Jam releases out of my reach. At least, I'd like to know if it is something on my side.

It's a shame, such a wonderful front-end/launcher. Not even Doom, with a much bigger community, has something like Quake Injector.

I had it happen once on "quoth" but every re-try worked fine. If it happens for you, please see my posts above for necessary information.

I'm getting unexpected end of ZLIB errors with quake injector when installing Quoth.

I manually downloaded the Quoth2.2full file and was able to manually extract that fine. Quake Injector doesn't realize I've installed it, but its not a big deal as maps that require qouth seam to be working. I extracted it to a new directory within the quake directory,  'Quoth'; does the versioning matter (IE do I need to get the earlier release and have two Qouth directories) ?

Quaddicted is on a new server since yesterday, the server configuration is the same though. Please check if things work ok now.

I was just able to download Nehahra from Illinois, so maybe there is an issue with the international connection?

Might be a long shot, but try downloading it through a proxy

EDIT:

I've had issues with QI stalling or failing to download certain files myself. I get around this by downloading the zip directly from this website, putting the .zip in my "quake temporary map" folder and then installing from the QI (This way the QI doesn't have to download it)

I haven't noticed a trend as to which files stall out and which files don't, though this issue mostly just started happening when I started playing quake again about a month ago. Prior to that (back in February) QI had no stalling or failed DL issues.
