[freenet-support] Re: Web install does not work

Well update.

One way to get the new jar is from sourceforge:

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=978
(0.5.x-5105 - not a real release, just put out for convenience when the
web server plays up; get freenet-5105.jar and rename it to freenet.jar,
overwriting the old one).

that's the version of the systray utility for windows, a small freenet 
starting/stopping tool for windoze user convenience

the node's version is shown at the node's web-interface at 
http://127.0.0.1:/ which btw is your first entry into the freenet world. if 
you've made yourself comfortable check out programs like Frost, FUQID and FIW 
that use more of freenet's capabilites

Oh, I see.  No, I'm using 5096.  That is the version I downloaded whole, so I

(what does the message about lines longer than 80 charicters mean??  If it means
the message is too long, that's a lousy way to communicate that)

In "About" it says 0.5.2.8, 14th march 2004.  Like I said, I tried 
updating it,
and it did download some of the files, just not freenet.jar.  So 
maybe it isn't
really updated as much as it says.  I think the problem probably 
is a slow
connection.  It does still say something about not being able to 
write to the
disk, but that is after it has been sitting there not using the 
connection for
15 min.  I don't have trouble with other downloads- or even other 
web
installers.  There's about 20 gig free on that partition where 
freenet is
installed and from which I was running the installer.  I'll bet 
people in 3rd
world would have the same problem.

What's the reason for the web installer?  Just curious.

Dunno really how to use this thing.

Nope, plenty of space.  

I really wish you could just download a complete up-to-date freenet package. 
All they'd have to do is just make updating a normal part of the installation
process, but the package still installs if update fails.  Same result, better
process, more freedom.  And not dependant *ahem, ahem* on their having
non-corrupt files on the server.  You could just use another source.

I tried using the webinstaller again this afternoon, to update the complete
package I downloaded from http://www.vrhome.com/freenet/, but it seems to time
out on the larger files, that is when it gets to freenet.jar.  I tried it over
again, and it gets 3/4 there and the connection goes almost dead,
but will keep downloading about 1 kb maybe every 30 seconds.  I have a very slow
connection.  Anyway freenet, it works now.  I was also getting the Could not
find main class error, but that is fixed by the package I got.  The only problem
with the package I downloaded was I had to point it to javaw.exe, but it had a
nice error message which told me what to do.

Well, I hope this reply comes in under Matthew Toseland's reply to my post. 
Dunno really how to use this thing.

Nope, plenty of space.  

I really wish you could just download a complete up-to-date freenet package. 
All they'd have to do is just make updating a normal part of the installation
process, but the package still installs if update fails.  Same result, better
process, more freedom.  And not dependant *ahem, ahem* on their having
non-corrupt files on the server.  You could just use another source.

I tried using the webinstaller again this afternoon, to update the complete
package I downloaded from http://www.vrhome.com/freenet/, but it seems to time
out on the larger files, that is when it gets to freenet.jar.  I tried it over
