Mine was doing this same error when I first installed/upgraded to 2.0a so I
just did my update checking manually. I just tried it now however and it
worked fine. I'm so confused...
My system stats if it helps...
Windows version (e.g. Win98)
Win2kP w/ SR1
Browser(s) installed and versions (e.g. IE5.0)
IE 5.5
Directory where AB is installed (e.g. "C:\ArmyBuilder")
F:\program files\armybuilder
Type of web connection (e.g. dial-up, DSL, etc.)
dial-up ISDN bonded
Whether connection was already live when attempted
Yes because during setup I told it manual.
Can you view HTML files from within AB (e.g. view the tutorial via Help
menu)?
Yes.
Can you view other web-pages from within AB (e.g. Help->Visit Wolf Lair
menu)?
Yes.
Can you successfully invoke the following URL via the Start menu?
http://www.wolflair.com/Army_Builder/Product_Downloads/product_downloads.htm
[Click on Start, then Run, then paste this URL, then click OK. Does it
work?]
Yes.
One other thing... I got confused at one point and and re-updated my system
with the same version 2.0a. Had not attempted to go to the sight again
since. Was there possibly a change to 2.0a that was so minor that it didn't
require a revision number change that I ended up downloading/installing?
Could I be totally confused and had the problem when I did my initial
install but after "upgrading" it was fixed? Could it be there was a change
at the website itself that might have caused this problem to fix itself?
Just trolling at this point, have no idea if any of this is useful.
DOH! Wait a minute!!! *smack to the forehead* When I -initially- had the
problem I was still on Win98 SE, w/ IE5.0 and on C: drive. It's been a bit
since then (I upgraded on release day *s*), so my memory is a little fuzzy
on the exact order/OS I started receiving the errors and they fixed
themselves. *sigh* I should go back to bed and start over. TGIF!
Hope this helps, because AB rocks! I literally use it everyday (I do take
the occasional break *s*) either to prepare an army, to gather intel on
opponents, or just for plain ol' quick reference. Without it, my gaming
group members always had some little error in their army lists and it took
forever to prep for play. GW should ship AB bundled with their boxed sets,
imho. I know, I know... "Ya' right!" =)
My one little teeny tiny miniscule complaint is that I always have to have
my 1.4 CD in my only CD-ROM when I'm running AB. Your messin' with my tunes
man! =) Is there anyway around this? Can I copy-to then install from my
HD and keep the install files in place afterwords or is there some registry
hack to fix this? I promise I won't tell if you can help a brotha out
(because AB is worth every penny and then some). Pretty please? I know, I
know... "Ya' right!" =) Anyway my many thanks to the AB team for helping
the gamers out without putting the squeeze on us like some other
unmentionable company that I forGot What there name is at the moment. =)
Regards,
-Dennis
