It downloads just fine here, double-slash or not.

How ?

If I look in the folder "http(s)://files.pfsense.org/packages/amd64/8/All/" i cannot find any file named "snort-2.9.6.0-amd64.pbi".

So how can u download it ?

Is it possible to roll back the current packages list until the new package is up so that there aren't 12 dozen posts stating the download failed.

Hello,

sorry for disturbing, but there is no package available for download:

Look here: https://files.pfsense.org/packages/amd64/8/All/

Is there the read-acces to everyone set or not?

dimkyson

The same here. Indeed, it looks like file hasn't been uploaded yet:

The vast majority of us still cannot see the package uploaded. Maybe a read permission issue? Or a rsync hiccup?

@doktornotor:

Yeah.. I'm not seeing that file there :)

Maybe it's an issue with some of the mirrors?

Still nothing here, even browsing at the I.P. address you pointed out… :(

I just checked for the i386 package that I need. On the IPv6 site it is available but NOT on the IPv4 site (yet I hope).

The strange thing is that if I click the links here at the office, the file downloads. If I access from home via my pc or pfsense it cant be found. Tested via ipad from a wifi hotspot and it failed… so not sure why the links work here at the office. If I browse the directory I can see it from here as well. Try that from home or from ipad do not see it at all..
