Hi,
The link of the free item "Lighting Designer" which I uploaded from several hours ago is dead.
Is there a difficulty of anything in my free item, or is it the trouble of the server of Renderosity?
Please help.

Must I specify a zip file when I edit FreeItem again?
I edited only "Note", and didn't specify a ZIP file again.
Is this a cause?

haven't been able to find your site in a long time>>>>>

Hi,

I am not using my server.
And, uploading to the server of Renderosity is supposed to be successful because a link was available right after I received approved eMail.

I changed the name of FreeItem later, too.
This may have broken the path or the relation to the zip file. 

If no inconvenience is in my FreeItem and it is the mere destruction of the link, I have only to delete that item and contribute it again.
But, I only deleted an item now because I couldn't judge that.

By the way, is it suitable to post this kind of question to this forum?  
If you know a suitable place of a question, tell me it please.

Kind regards,
JTrout

I think this would definitely be the place to post.

Are the files uploaded to Renderosity?

they may not see this until monday (their time), but they may also want you to send a site mail
to one of their employees.  it's best to send it to somebody who is online.

For best results, make it one of the two moderators listed for this forum (whether online or not).

Im not sure what happened to your file since Im assuming you deleted it? Im not seeing it anywhere..go ahead and reupload it again. Please be aware however that it will go back into pending status awaiting testing and approval.

Let me know if anything else happens.

Thanks!

Thank you very much for everyone.

I deleted an item unwillingly because the comment and mail that can not download occurred in many.

I submit it again because it found that there was no problem at least in my Free Item itself.

Thank you again.

I just downloaded Lighting Designer from your freestuff...are you still having a problem...I am, btw the Freestuff Moderator and you can Site Mail me as well anytime with a problem.. ....

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

 

 

 

 

 

Hi,

Thank you for your follow-up.
I don't have a problem after re-uploading at present. 

I have a question about the post-editing of an free item.
Is there a problem in changing only the title of FreeItem later?

At this case, When download was unavailable the server error of the kind of "An access key not found." or "inappropriate." was indicated.
I thinks that it occurred after I edit the title of the free item and Note by post-editing.
I can't ascertain that directly.
The above causal relation is unreliable because I noticed download problem later in notification (comment and mail) from other people .

However, as for the detail of HTMLcode of the downloading.....
It seems that an HTML code for downloading in this FreeStuff system takes the influence of the Free Item's title.
At least, the preservation file name in the server side is generated automatically from title and the account name.

 That would make sense. If you change the file name on the server, links to that file with the old name wouldn't work… because they would try to download a non-existant file.

Probably, my intention has not been introduced to you properly.

Because this system is automated by a server program, a contributor can't change a file name directly. 
An access path to the file (such as the URL) is generated automatically from the title of the item and the account name.

As for my being afraid.....
Won't  un-consistency in system occur even if the title (It is not a file name.) of the free item is changed by post-editing?

I can't try personally because the influence of this is big.

I don't know.

I wouldn't think it would make a difference, but then again, I don't know.

Thank you for your quick response.

I don't think as well as you that such a problem is here because the practical use time of this system is long.
I asked it a question because I might trouble many people though I would like to try actually this.

"I, like you, don't think that this problem is here because this system has been in use for a long time.
I asked the question even though I might trouble many people but I would like to actually try this."

Am I understanding you correctly?

Are you wanting to see if you can change the item title (not the the name of the file to be downloaded) without having to re-upload the free item?

If that is the case, it shouldn't be a problem at all.

I wouldn't think it would make a difference, but then again and I don't know.

As for this, I may have misunderstood a little.

As for this, it is Yes.

Is that what you did the first time? Changed the title? Changing a title shouldn't render your upload dead..let me know if that is all that you did and got that result and I'll take it to the techs..that should not happen.

I am sorry to make it prolonged because my English is poor.

I couldn't write it well though I wanted to write it more briefly.

I was afraid that this action might be a cause because it was only the change of the title by post-editing that I carried out before a link died.

A problem didn't happen though I changed the title of another item now.
The cause is something other. 
I am sorry to ask it a question for long.

I will report that without deleting an item if I meet with the problem again.

Thank you.
