Topic: Cannot Download Repo Index File

Hi,

I'm having error in frontaccounting v.2.3.24 in my wampserver64 for windows7 when i want to install/activate language, themes, plugins. The page will show "cannot download repo index file". I googled and only find the source code that show the condition for that error, but once i found that the error happens because the apache server but sadly i cannot access the solution because the page can't be accessed.

As i recall, when i install the frontaccounting v.2.3.24 before, in the same computer, there wasn't such an error when i want to install language. This cannot download repo index file error also appeared in the same version which i installed in another pc using windows 8.

Maybe there are solutions for this, please let me know.

Thank you.

Re: Cannot Download Repo Index File

Which browser are you using - try FireFox. Also manually try to download the files from the repo like:

http://anonymous:password@repo.frontaccounting.eu/2.3/Release.gz

It is possible in FireFox but not in MS IE 8.

Disable your Internet download manager and try only in FireFox.

Thank you apmuthu;

I downloaded Release.gz but this file exist in modules\_cache folder and my problem dos not solve.

My hosting info:
Server Info: Apache/2
PHP Version: 5.3.29
MySQL Version: 5.5.31

I use "wamp" to locally installation FA and I can download and install the Arabic using "Install/Update Languages" panel and do all steps in: https://frontaccounting.com/fawiki/index.php?n=Help.InstallUpdateLanugages

But I do not know how can set this steps :
7. Locale settings in various OSes
8. PHP setlocale()

I do all of this steps:

    Install ar_EG Arabic Language within FA
    Edit the encoding in lang/installed_languages.inc to be 'utf-8' for ar_EG language
    Upload the Arabic fonts (aealarabiya and aefurat) to the reporting/fonts folder
    Edit lines 158 in reporting/includes/class.pdf.inc to be:
case "ar_EG" :     $fontname = "aealarabiya";     break;

but no Arabic interface in FA?!

In Windows, you will need to have language settings set in the control panel depending on which flavour of Windows you are using.
