Download Speed during Installation

<< < (2/3) > >>

Just to add my vote, I ran into the same error today 2/4/2017 "...couldn't be updated, try again later".  This was running v3.1.0.1 setup_addonmanagerX.exe stand alone outside of P3D - P3D was NOT running.

I'm guessing there must be some site performance problems which is preventing some downloads from happening.

I'll keep trying and hope it clears up.

Cheers, Rob.

Yep its a hole host of problems coming with this latest update, along with teh crash my install and download speeds have been problematic, I think alot of people are having this issue, so glad its not just me  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

There are no problems whatsoever with the update but, of course, if too many people are downloading and the same time, the download speed will obviously suffer, and it's possible you might have mixed up files, which might be the CAUSE of the problems.

But since the installer is brand new, it's not strictly necessary to have it *download* the Addon Manager so, once you got the installer, if you disable the network while installing, it will say there's no connection, and will ask if you want to continue using local files. Allow it, and the installation will proceed offline.

this is ridiculous, I have a 300MB/s download pipe; who is a host that crawls at 21KB/s . . .

Servers of highly respected developers used to crash (so the download speed would be 0) when they did a big release, we haven't.

We have two servers for redundancy, one in Europe another in the US, they are chosen at random when the installer starts, so you might just try another time if you see the download speed is too slow, one might be faster than the other, depending on the time of the day.
