Miranda IM v0.9.50 Beta #2 Discussion

[Delerue]

It most likely have todo with your local firewall. Did you update it to allow new version of Miranda through.

I don't think so. First because I don't have any firewall here. Second because I can install older versions (any before 0.9.49 -- included) and HTTP Server works perfectly. What you think?

Well, I tried on my computer and it works perfectly... You could provide network log capturing Miranda startup and link that is generated.

netlog.zip (please, rename the extension to '.7z')

One example of a link generated here by HTTP Server: http://201.29.191.72:24516/1416.wmv

I hope this helps you to find the problem. :)

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, I clicked the link and I was successful in downloading the file... sounds to me like your plugin is working and it's something else, as suggested.

That's because in the meantime I switched to 0.9.49 :)

Well, I do not see any problems... Port 24516 properly mapped on the router. IP is what router reported... So this should work unless there is a firewall block. You could try to capture somebody trying to access the link in addition to the above. Maybe it will shine some light on what is going on.

Other than that, there should be the ability for the user to select between multiple language files that are installed, I agree.

Installed by whom? It's significantly easier for me to install a program, and make sure it works straight, then let users customize it as they pleased, than to work on it's customization myself. (Not to mention, I don't understand German...)
I can include some default settings/localizations into skeleton profile and let new users have their pie cooked, but if they don't like it's taste, they are free to delete/move/change anything.

It would however, make sense to keep the files where they are (in the program folder), not just for backwards compatibility, but also for not having the same language file in each user directory. That would be wasteful.

What you propose is a bit more work than what we're discussing here.
It'll require to create multi-lingual support for interface first.
Right now, Miranda doesn't support anything like that, it's a single language, either external or embedded, if external file is failed to be found, and you don't have ability to revert to embedded language, if external language file is present.
What you call wasteful, I call a fair trade between usability, portability and implementation cost.
Even if it's not backward compatible, - users can fix that by themselves, which does not require administrative rights.

There is slight problem, language loads before the profile for the profile manager ui... I guess I could reload the pack once profile selected....

Aww, I forgot about the profile manager. Long time no see...
