Updates fail and Downloads stop at 39.8Mb during attempt to update large app.

Thanks for the full details. I just downloaded from the mirror you're having issues with again. I got the full 113MB file and it ran successfully. Do you know if there's not some sort of cache on your local machine or between you and that mirror, possibly at the ISP level or on your local network? That's the only thing I can think of offhand on my end, but then I'm no expert on these things.

I've passed your full report along to the LibreOffice folks for further analysis as well. Hopefully they'll have some more ideas.

I disagree. Let me count the ways...

1. Firstly, my response was exactly the answer the original poster, Jestre, had asked for in his question: Yes, others are also having problems with the PortableApps Updater.
2. Secondly, your 21-word response did not mention any known issues with mirrors.
3. Thirdly, you have demonstrated nothing at all, nor have you suggested a way something could be demonstrated. The exact causes of my update failures, Ackael's, and Jestre's are currently unknown, but I think it's likely that all 3 update failures are related: The PortableApps Updater is unreliable, and often fails silently.

Count 'em, that's three! But why stop there? I'll summarize the work we have contributed so far:

• Ackael tested 2 computers, I assume on 1 network. 1 computer fails to update.
• Jestre tested 2 (maybe 3) computers on 2 networks. All of them failed to download. The download server was verified working when simultaneously tested with WxDownload, which rules out most server problems and network problems. The PortableApps Updater is the most likely culprit.
• I, badon, have tested 4 computers on 4 networks in 2 different geographic locations. My test results were very similar to Jestre's, which rules out most server problems and network problems. The PortableApps Updater is the most likely culprit.

It looks to me like we have made significant progress in isolating the problem to the PortableApps Updater. In response, you're dismissing our results, and you've taken it a step further in treating me with hostility.

Some people don't want contributions to their projects, like testing help, bug reports, workaround solutions, patches, and other fixes. I see that your posts have stopped addressing the actual facts in the bug reports, and have instead started to focus on me personally. So, the pattern emerges once again, and I really don't like it, especially after having actually sent you my money in addition to my time.

For the record, you have complained about me "[going] around posting in unrelated bugs" when, in fact, I have posted in only 2 bug reports: This one by Jestre, and the one by Ackael. A conspicuous fact is that I haven't posted my own bug report. Instead, I conscientiously searched through hundreds of bug report posts first, to see if similar issues had already been mentioned before. This one by Jestre was the only one I found, and it's still the only one I've posted in besides Ackael's. Still, I come out looking like a pest from your point of view. There's nothing nice that I have to say about that.

As far as the email notifications being "annoying", that's red herring nonsense. Let me count the ways...

1. Email notifications are disabled by default here. You and I are probably the only 2 people receiving notifications.
2. Even if email notifications weren't disabled by default, there are still only 4 people participating in these discussions, in both topics COMBINED.
3. It's possible that millions of random people have configured notifications for this discussion, but you claim those millions of people never have this problem. So, by your own logic, no one else would bother to set up email notifications.
4. None of the 4 of us have indicated we don't want to be notified when more information becomes available.

Thanks for the great software, and the extra crispy red-herring barbecue.
