Summary: Download command fails in certain circumstances
Product: WPKG
Version: 1.1.2
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: wpkg.js
AssignedTo: man...@wpkg.org
ReportedBy: subscript...@kkeane.com
QAContact: wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org
The <download> tag fails in a number of circumstances. Two specific ones:
- The URL is an ftp: URL
- The URL leads to a redirect.
This is even though the XMPHTTP object can handle both situations.
The cause is apparently in line 5851, where only HTTP result 200 is accepted as
success. FTP downloads instead return 0 even if successful, as indicated here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/using_xmlhttprequest
I believe redirects also return 0, but am not sure yet.
I think a better way to detect success is to look for xmlHttp.status >= 400.
I'm not sure if this will catch all error situations, though.
