Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.0
As I don't want my users to have to look at Arcor's advertisements all the time, I decided to write a new website for OpenDownload2.
http://mozilla.tuxproject.de/opendownload2
Notable changes:
I will release the (previously announced) v4.0.1 within the next few hours.
The new website is hosted on a paid server. Maybe this is a good moment to donate ...

Notable changes:
- Slightly improved page layout.
- No ads.
- A Python-powered backend, allowing me more flexibility than the old plain HTML site.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.0
If you could look at the issue of executed downloads disappearing from the history, I would appreciate it.
I am using the S3 Download Manager, but it also happened with Download Statusbar. I can see the download progressing in the list, but as soon as it executes, it is gone.
Thanks.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.0
I assume those other extensions to fail here. I'm not sure how to work around these issues.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.0
How would those other extensions even know that OD2 is involved?

They don't, but neither do I.
Anyway, they obviously interfere with Firefox's download manager which OD2 is trying to access.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
I am having an issue with this extension and the execution of batch files. The batch file appears to start executing but only a blank command prompt briefly displays with nothing actually happening. When I "save" the same file and then run it everything works correctly. Also, if I "Run" the file with Internet Explorer the file executes successfully. The batch file installs a printer for the end-user. One other thing to note is that the same code works in a separate test server (2003 R2). The current server is 2012 and I am also wondering if that may have something to do with it. I took a look at all of the extension settings but I couldn't find anything that would actually allow the batch file to be executed without it actually doing anything. Help!

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
Hmm, a "batch file" is not an "executable file" in a technical matter. Could you post the file here? I guess it's just a problem with not correctly set paths.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
If I modify the batch file to only have a PAUSE line it still does not work when the "Run" option is selected from Firefox. Saving the file and then running it will, however bring up a command prompt with a "press any key to continue" statement.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
Sorry - no real solution found yet.
(Slightly OT: OpenDownload² will probably be unmaintained when Firefox stops supporting XUL. I won't have enough time to migrate to a different framework just because Mozilla does not want to allow maximum flexibility anymore.)

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
Random announcement: I decided to make OD2 a Pale Moon and Seamonkey add-on as soon as Mozilla drops its last real advantage. Stay tuned.

I spoke to the author of the S3 download manager.
He pointed me to the following line in the OD2 code:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... oad.js#L61
The "yield list.remove(d)" does remove the downloaded file from the list, which is the behaviour that I am talking about. Removing the line solves the issue.
I understand that this behaviour may be desirable by some, but it could be made a configuration item.
There were cases when I needed to cancel an installation in the middle and having an convenient option to re-run it will be appreciated.

Re: [Ext] OpenDownload² 4.0.1
Ah, so the actual problem is that those two actually interfere with OpenDownload2? I haven't used either of those two for quite a long time, the last "download manager" I use is FlashGot with DTA! which does not change the behavior...
I admit this is a good point. I will add a new config. setting in 4.0.2 - would a new about:config entry work for you or do you actually need a configuration dialog?
