Hi Howard,
In the ThinkGeo Customer Portal there is a link to the 4.0.160 daily build:
WpfDesktopEditionEvaluation4.0.160.0DllPackage.zip
4.19 MB
10/10/2010
But when I try do download it I get the 4.0.153
Could you check it?
Carlos.
Hi Carlos,
I checked both our helpdesk.thinkgeo.com and the address you pasted; they are both 4.0.160.0. I also checked the file version and it is all right too. Could you try it again and let us know then.
Thanks,
Howard
Hi Howard,
In the web it says "WpfDesktopEditionEvaluation4.0.161.0DllPackage.zip" but when I click I get "WpfDesktopEditionEvaluation4.0.153.0DllPackage.zip"
the link is helpdesk.thinkgeo.com/helpdesk/FileItem.axd?FileItemID=d9338679-d174-49d8-a584-a89d25abb931
Regards,
Carlos
Today I tried again and the problem persisted, but then I used other browser and it downloaded the latest version, so I dig in a little bit more and realized that the download link does not change, is the same every day even though the build is different. So the problem is that chrome (my default web browser) is catching the download so I was always getting the same file I got the really first time.
To solve it is as easy as adding the string "&yymmdd" (where yy is year, mm month and dd day) at the end of the link, a simple parameter that your server will ignore (as it will only look for the FileItemID querystring) and will let the browser know that the link is *different*. I tested this solution by writing this url manually and it works just fine.

Carlos.
Hi Carlos,

After more than one month I reported this issue with the Customer Portal download links and proposed a easy solution I check it still isn’t fixed.
It’s only 2 minutes what’s needed to fix it!!
Carlos,
Thanks for reporting. It’s actually easy as you said. I will report this issue again and I’m sure it will be fixed in the nearly few days.
Thanks for reporting this issue again and very sorry for the inconvenience,
Howard
Hi Howard,
I checked it today and the problem persist. Please report it again whenever you can.
Thanks,
Carlos.
Hi Carlos,
I reported this issue again. It used to be fine in the last few days. But there might be some issues when they upgrading something. It should be all right soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks,
Howard
