website does not allow downlaods #8583

Closed amirko72 closed 9 years ago

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Today, OCT 05 2104. I attempted to download win32, bui, it the downlaod does not work at all: Windows Self-Extracting Archive (.exe) of V 0.3.1 does not work, and, V 0.2.1. does not work as well. Kindly provide to me both downlaods links.

ViralBShah commented 9 years ago

The links work fine. I just tried it. Perhaps you are behind a firewall or something that does not allow downloading of exe files?

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Hi: it is said like this: the page is unavalable. Can you zip to me both files and email both as attachment? Best regards, Amir

I'm sorry, Amir, but we won't be able to fulfill a request like that. For one, the downloads are much too large; for another, there is nothing actually wrong with Amazon Web Services (AWS) where our downloads are hosted.

You should contact your local network administrator and ask why you are having problems reaching AWS. Hopefully you'll be able to get that resolved and enjoy what Julia has to offer!

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

I am getting all the time this error code:

Error code: ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED

and, I can not download. Now, a question: is there any repoistory for Julia out of your site? If it is too big file sizes, can you upload it to sites like MEGA, or, DropBox?

Thanks, and, best regards, Amir

Ps. what is the file size for one and the other?

Amir, I do suggest that you contact either your local network administrator or internet service provider. There is not another official download site for the Windows binaries at this time, though you may find them mirrored elsewhere.

StefanKarpinski commented 9 years ago

By googling that error name (did you try that?) it seems likely that you have a conflict between Chrome and Kapersky antivirus:

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Can you suggest what other mirrors are valid? Kinldy enlist few links. Thanks. PS. I appreciate your help. Now, I am interested to help this project, this idea get to my mind due you are nice guys responding to my emails. How to participate? What are the tools? etc. Let mw know, Best regards, Amir

You may want to try another browser for this – the web server is not the issue.

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

the same is with IE and chrome... any suggestion for some mirror. thanks for your effort.. besides, how to join the julia works, what are tools and how to go on best regards, amir

Does that link about Kapersky antivirus look relevant? Are you using any of those products?

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Do not know, ESET 32... how about mirror link and to work with you? bests, amir

There are no official mirrors, that's the link. You could try building from source.

ViralBShah commented 9 years ago

The firewall may be implementing the anti-virus and blocking? I can only suggest to download from a different internet connection or a different computer.

StefanKarpinski commented 9 years ago

Yeah, this appears to be your antivirus software preventing you from downloading .exe files. Either turn off the antivirus while you download this or download it on a different computer not running antivirus.

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Thanks, any way, is there any other way to join consortium and make contributions? I wish to write entire DSP package onto what you have. Let me know. Best regards, Amir.

There is no consortium or official institution. Just try to write good code and people will end up using it.

There's already a DSP package, so you would be better off contributing there than writing something from scratch.

ViralBShah commented 9 years ago

There is a Github organization - https://github.com/JuliaDSP

ViralBShah commented 9 years ago

However, discussions on contributions are best held on julia-users mailing list.

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Hi to all> due all problems, I managed to download Julia for Windows. I think my wireless link is hacked, so I used secure TOR and Lives program and I write to you from Tor now /this is secure 100%/... I have Julia now, thanks. I wish to contribute for DSP but will first test what you have now. Other issue of developing special functions for DSP, I will do so after the test. If I will need help to develop this, due tools you use, whom can I ask at your organization.\ I am in Europe, so if you have anyone who can be called, kindly enlist the direct landline and mobile numbers so we can speak. My mobile is > [redacted] /in Croatia/... Thank you, best regards, Amir

This is not really how open source works. I don't think anyone is going to post their phone number here.

amirko72 commented 9 years ago

Ok, we are just software guys and I do not see the reason of hidding mobile phone? We are not criminals, just usual people, who can abuse mobile phone? Anyway, best regards, Amir

We're just software guys, so we use e-mails and GitHub.

Nothing can replace human contact.... future androids can just rely on digital communication...

Maybe, but believe it or not staying in touch with our 200+ contributors by phone actually does not work very well.
