Download problem

[Sativarg2]

Allowing or disallowing pubgears shouldn't have any affect; that's just our adserver. If it is actually having an affect (and it's not just a coincidence) then I'd love more feedback on that.

Just now I tried to get Skyrim -Community- Uncapper at Skyrim Nexus - Skyrim mods and community

The download manually link went to a page with the correct address bu it was blank.

 

I paused Ghostery and clicked the same link and the file loaded fine. So I re-enabled Ghostery and found it had been blocking extremetracking... But once this code ran once I was able to block it again and still goto the file...

 

I am sorry it took me so long to reply I had been playing for over 9 hours and fell asleep...

here is a list of the things I had been blocking

below is a little tool to help some one smart track down possible trouble connections to a server or site:

Getting more and more connection site errors, pages not loading or timing out, and as I have said in the beginning of the second post reply along with many others.. mod(s) downloads are not getting better :( I'll hold the wires together for anyone to come in and fix this if needed lol. Is it possible that Nexas needs another server to help take on the growing load problem?

I too have had problems with downloading...Empty pages, Files cant be downloaded because there set to hidden..when there not(usually a few back to page and reclick fixes this) and random downloads not being synced to the server even if there 5 years old..

Most of these problems happen on the fallout3nexus but i have had problems on the skyrim nexus with empty pages.

 

Browser: Waterfox ver. 16.0.1

Download manager: IDM 6.12(note that i turned off IDM downloads for nexus to see if it would help, did not solve problem)

 

 

This also seems to happen more frequently on premium servers though it still happens on Normal servers.

The weirdest thing of all in regards to these late issues to me is that I never encountered any of these myself so far, for the whole time since these complaints keep popping up.

 

I'm never logged out of any Nexus sites, neither during posts nor uploads nor downloads,

my downloads/uploads/posts all register, even if it takes an unusually long time (>1 day sometimes for a post I made or a file I downloaded to appear in my history, and of course only after this time I can endorse and such, but at least I can),

yesterday, for the first time since 2 months, I encountered an erroneous "file hidden by author" error again, and it immediately repaired itself with a single page refresh,

I'm not getting white pages or error messages when clicking a non-Premium download server (can't test Premium servers though without being a Premium member),

my downloads never end up incomplete or abort in the middle of downloading (I just downloaded a 14MB file for Oblivion from the Dallas server, and the only thing off was the 20KB/s max. speed I got, usually files of that size are down in an instant, again it was the first time for months),

downloading via NMM works as reliable and stable as doing it manually, there are no "automatic" NMM downloads starting when I revisit a page or anything,

and I've not encountered any cookie-based, permission or whatever error messages on any site or author action I've undertaken during the whole time either.

 

Now, it could be due to me living in Europe, Germany, the UK only being 1 timezone to the west in the neighborhood, and the routes I'm getting to the servers going through far more reliable nodes or whatever. But it's impossible I'm the only Nexus user from that part of the world.

 

Or maybe it is my browser, the old and reliable "Firefox 5" I'm using still, as I'm not allowed to update by job order or it will break plugins vital for our work. I'm not using any NoScript or AdBlock or similar plugins either, as I'm developing these things myself and need to be able to test them in a runtime environment.

 

It could also have something to do with me browsing from a Mac OS, not one of those fancy new Windows OS with overreacting security measures and file access restrictions which also affect the browsers' work files, cookies, temp files, cached javascripts, etc.

 

I don't know.

I only know "none" of the stuff you're all complaining about was or is happening to me, for the whole last months, ever. What is it which makes all of this "not" happen to me, and what is it which makes it happen to all of you? I'm out of ideas with this at that point, and that's something rarely happening.

 

It can't be "only" a Nexus issue though, and it must have a relation to something on your end, too, or it would be happening to "every" Nexus member, no exception, which it isn't.

 

...this, or I'm just the "luckiest" user in the memberlist, like 1 in a million... This situation is beyond me. :wacko:

 

edit: Oh, and for the conspiracy theory lovers out there, there is no "Steam" client running on my system either, likely the biggest difference to most of your's... so it could be related as well. :whistling:

It sure is odd that the other 999,999 members with the 999,998 different system and network configurations would all catch the same flu at the same time. Must be the Mac. :wacko:

Anyone else still have a problem with downloads not finishing?

Anyone else still have a problem with downloads not finishing?

I can't say about today, but as of last night I was still having all the same problems, and couldn't even stay logged in for more than about 5 minutes ... Nexus would make me log in again. As far as downloads, size did not seem to make a difference, but the problems were less frequent, so perhaps they're making progress.

I can't download any mod now through the NMM
