Oldsalter looking for approval

[Oldsalter]

HI all, In truth have been a member for a while and have just got my Bus Pass.
I am posting this in order to get an approval to see if it effects the OOPs message I get
when I try to download certain works. No idea why some seem to be out of reach and some are not.

What can't you download? As a member you should have access to all public files?
There have been some problems with older add-ons being imported to the new forum but they are still accessable.

Good day Buck, I get the dreaded with certain downloads.

Oops! We ran into some problems.​

Sometimes I think i am not supposed to download them.​

The message cities not having enough replies as the reason you cannot download.​

Day to day recent downloads no problem... Oldsalter.​

Yeah, the issue your facing here is the one noted in that support thread. Though the message says it's probably about your post count, in this case it's nothing to with it; you already have more posts than the required minimum. Unfortunately there's no distinction in the system between different failure modes at that level, so the message it shows here is pretty generic.

As @Buck Rogers says, this should only impact some of the older addons which were imported into the forum from OHM. I'm tracking the effort to fix it in that website support thread; if you find an addon that throws this error at you, feel free to log it in there so I know which ones to focus on first.

Will do thanks for your efforts...Oldsalter.
