go decompress

Post by bsouthuk » Thu Oct 14, 2010 4:50 pm

Hi

I am having problems opening with the following script:

Code: Select all


   get url "http://qglogin.co.uk/masterqg.rev.gz"
   
   go decompress(it)
     answer the result
The stack opens fine on most machines but for one particular company that is using my application all of their systems receive an error message saying "No such Card" when trying to launch my application from mysplash screen.

Any ideas?

Maybe they have a proxy server that gets in the way? You should check 'the result' and 'it' after the 'get url...'

This is almosty certainly the issue thanks Jan - I thought it was their Firewall blocking it at first but they have added my domain as an exception and many many of the users systems are working. However some are still not even though they are part of the same Network.

If is is the proxy server that is getting in the way - what would I need to do?

The HTTPProxy global property may help.

Thanks - i'm completely new to this.

Do you mean to use the following script?

Code: Select all

set the HTTPProxy to global


As when I have tried this - I receive the 'NO such card' error even on my computer.
