Recently I have not been able to use the software farm options from the IDE to download or download + install examples from the Software Farm. The files seem to download. I get the progress bard counting then a message box pops up with the error "Unable to install [name ver of software]:" I will try to attach a screen capture. If I go to the web site in my browser and download the file from the farm, I can extract the files in my file manager and place the folder in my Gambas3 directory and use them that way.  I am wondering if I need to fix something on my computer or if something else is wrong?

I am using Gambas 3.18.0 on: System:    Kernel: 5.4.0-139-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 9.4.0
           Desktop: Cinnamon 5.2.7 wm: muffin dm: LightDM Distro: Linux Mint 20.3 Una
           base: Ubuntu 20.04 focal

Any ideas on what may need fixed?

 What is the extension of the downloaded archive?

it should support ".tar.gz"  and ".tar.bz2"

I tried to access this program on the Farm and got exactly the same error message for both 'Download' and 'Download and install' options. I managed to get the program running by downloading the file from the Farm via Gambas.one here, uncompressing the file, then opening it with Gambas.

I am using dev branch and i downloaded and installed the program with no errors.

 Apparently you have to wait for the next stable release.

What happened was a server update that changed the case of some headers (like changed title to Title) or something like that.

All Benoit could do was apply a fix in gambas as the current and previous code did a direct
If sHeader = "This text"  sort of thing

he changed it to something like
If LCase(sHeader) = "this text"

so now it works but EVERY previous gambas can no longer use the farm.

For some reason I thought it had been fixed on the server but apparently not.

Thanks for the responses. I was afraid I broke something, because that hardly ever happens…  :roll:
At least I can still use the farm web location. I learn so much from the programs there.
