[Spice-devel] Spice Downloads

2014-03-04 Thread Joe Butler
Hello, the spice download section does not seem to link to a download page, it 
just downloads a download.htm file.


Can this be fixed so I can download the client?


Many Thanks.

 Accessing the download page works for me, on a WinXP VM with all of
 IE, FF, and Chrome.

 The download page is download.html (not download.htm).

 Please try going directly to this page
 http://www.pice-space.org/download.html

I think his/her problem is getting a download.html file, such as:

virt-viewer Windows installer - 32 bit - virt-viewer-x86.msi
virt-viewer Windows installer - 64 bit - virt-viewer-x64.msi

I watch the elements of this page in detail, here may be a problem,
you see the following is element of virt-viewer-x86.msi
a type=application/octet-stream
href=http://virt-manager.org/download/;
download=virt-viewer-x86.msi/a

but for chrome , it may not explain application/octet-stream correctly
see this for details:
http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/21658/what-could-keep-chrome-from-downloading-files

 If there are still problems, please provide more information about the steps
 you
 take and the environment you use.

 Hope that helps,
Uri.

OK, that problem is different than accessing the download page.
That problem is problem with downloading .msi files specifically (which
is now done from the virt-manager.org site).
This can be fixed with  AddType or ForceType directives.

Thanks,
Uri.
