Title: Dev-c++ devpack updater/installer problem
Post by: rifter on October 22, 2005, 06:04:46 am
Ok, whenever I try to use the dev-c++ updater, it won't let me use the devpacks.org server, only the dev-c++ primary devpack server.  If I switch to the second one, it simply loads the primary devpack server again, but keeps the menu item at the devpacks.org community server.  Is there anything I can do to make it work, or is it something serverside? I have installed 2 codeblocks installations one on top of the other(the one with mingw first then the one I believe it said to be the updated version on top of it), and have two installations of mingw in two different locations(for reasons of comparison between IDEs).  I don't think that these events should have affected it, but there they are anyways.  Any help is appreciated, thanks.

It was a bug which has been fixed in CVS. Please wait for RC2. It's coming...

Hi Everyone:

The Dev-C++ updater is working for me, both the devpaks.org Community Devpaks and the Dev-C++ primary devpack server. 

What version of Dev-C++ are you using?  The most recent version of Dev-C++ is 4.9.9.2, some of the older version of Dev-C++ had problems with the updater, so if you are using a version other then 4.9.9.2 then you should download the newer version.  Be sure to follow the uninstall instuctions completely. 

Why are you posting a question about Dev-C++ on the C::B forum?  If you have problems go to the Dev-C++ forum where I or someone else will be glad to help you out.

See Ya
Butch

Sorry for the confusion, the plug-in that works towards use of devpacks from the servers, quoted from the menu of the most recent version of codeblocks, is called "Dev-c++ devpack updater/installer". 


Unrelated note:  I do note however, that 4.9.9.2 works fine for downloading devpacks from both sources, but that, of course, is unrelated.Argh! Redundancy!(http://forum.allsiemens.com/images/smiles/icon_blahblah.gif)
Oh yes, thank you very much for the answer, Mandrav.

I'm using latest version from CVS and the plugin works fine in both servers .
