Problem accesing QNX 6.3.2 repository   
If I run the installer and open the repository http://download.qnx.com/contrib/repository621a it starts downloading some
 things and then it crash (Memory Fault).

I tried this in different machines and it happens on all of them. Could be that there's some problem with the repository
 ?




Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo

I believe that repository has been permanently taken off-line.  Obviously the installer is quite upset by that.

Also, how could we install 3rd party software in QNX 6.3.2 if that mirror is offline ?

We really need it, there's nothing that can be do about it ?




Thanks a lot,

We here in the QNX IS Team have not received a request to take it officially off line but the host may be ill.

I will investigate and report back.

If it help today I installed a QNX 6.3.2 runtime and put the mirror to download ssh. I open it ok and download and 
install ssh without problems. I thought "it must been fixed" and closed the installer

Then every time I open the repository again it says "downlodin contents.tar.gz" (or something like that, I'm not there) 
and  extract it without problem (it seems) but then when "downloading icons" it crash.

Let me know if I can help you debugging this



Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo

Hi, I've downloaded the repository from: http://www.qnx.com/download/feature.html?programid=9978 and the same happens.

Reading http://www.qnx.com/developers/articles/article_877_1.html I've find out that repository.qrm has the icons, so I 
opened it and delete the "icon" part (although it linked to a page that was working, so I don't really know why this 
fixes it) as the attached patch does and it works for me.

To apply the patch I've just mounted the iso and copy it to somewhere available in my http server, then cd into the 
repository dir and apply the patch.

Also, it would be nice if this patch could be applied or if you can solve this issue in some other way




Thanks,
Rodrigo

Ohh, but that didn't work in all the QNXs we have (I don't really know why). If I delete repository.qrm and content.tar.
gz it works on all of them.

Perhaps if I regenerate them it will work again, but deleting them make it work, so I will add that to my ToDo but with 
low prio :)




Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo
