Cannot download any hublists

[courtartanis 0]

Hi,

First the technicals....

Windows XP Pro sp3 x86

24mbit ADSL2

DLINK DSL-2740R Router (wired)

ApexDC++ 1.3.1

Plenty of HDD space

Virus and Spyware free

Now the problem (lol)

I cannot download any hublists at ALL. Not even the popular and reliable "DCHublist.com" lists.

The lists i have tried to download, i have entered the URL into my browser also and they download manually...just not into the DC++ clients (I also have the same problem with DC++).

I CAN quick connect to hubs by entering an address manually...thats not a problem.

TCP/UDP Ports are forwarded and IP is correct, I have no software/router firewalls and Windows Firewall is disabled (Off and Unticked).

I have read several guides, tutorials and forums over and over again (despite having used xDC++ clients in the past) to try and find a solution, but still nothing.

Any and all advice appreciated.

Thanks :w00t:

Disable Coral network for hublist download - it is a checkbox somewhere in Settings - Advanced if I remember correctly.

Options - Downloads - in the bottom part of the pane look if your Hublist proxy is set - if it is then set it to empty. If it is empty, then set it as you need to access the outside HTTP servers (for example like you have set the proxy in your internet browser).

Hi, I am not behind any kind of proxy server to my knowledge, i use no proxy for my internet browser either; for firefox or for IE. I recently changed my ISP and they have given me no Proxy settings to use and i havn't set one myself either.

Yes but have you checked the Hublist proxy setting I suggested? :P

Lol, the box is empty....if i have no proxy server for regular HTTP browsing then i shouldn't need one for Hublists correct?

[Mek 13]

Correct.

Well, now I have run out of ideas... anybody? :P

Correct.

Well, now I have run out of ideas... anybody?

Anyone else got any advice? lo.

Yes, i got that error on that particular hublist (or something similar..) But, when i try downloading other hublists...they just don't download and stay on "download hublist....." for ages and ages and don't do anything. Same when i try to refresh.

The hublists i test with are online because i can download them with my browser...just not in the client..:P

Ok well thanks all for your suggestions....it seems that noone else has any. Gonna go to DC++ forums and see if they have any solutions for their client.

I'll continue watching this topic for any updates

Thanks again.

check if coral is enabled under settings thats a sort of mirror service if that option is enabled disable it also check that your allowing your client thru your firewall

Hey Toast,

Mek asked me about Coral Network and i responded to it earlier in the post with the response above....but i'll try it again just for you

Also, i have just installed Win7 Ultimate....so i'll redownload the client now and see if it works with this new install, never know...could have been a glitch with my previous XP install

Thanks :thumbsup:

Nope...still nothing This is very frustrating...is it possible my ISP could be blocking EVERY hublist out there?! :(

[Mek 13]

I don't think so. After all, it is just a plain HTTP transfer like any other, isn't it?

I would not say it this way, but I don't really think it would be fixable in your client, since error 504 is a timeout error, so obviously something went wrong "on the way" of connecting with a server, you tried few clients and different os, so there is no other possibility.

As an advice I can only tell you to use dchublist on the webside. Most of hublists like dchublist.com have a list on www where you just click on hub address and it will automaticly choose ApexDc to connect to the hub, there is a search engine etc. Hope that will be less frustrating :(
