Good Old map missing error

[Nisd]

can you download them using your browser? Might be the server missing the mime type

[sdy284]

no i can't

[Nisd]

Think it is the mine type that is missing then, just add .bsp and you should be good.

[sdy284]

how would i do that? i use go daddy

[Nisd]

You can't then, and they probably wont add it, as your are not suppose to run downloads off your server (from what i remember)

[helio]

I use godaddy for my fast download and i never had a problem

[loopyman]

As long as you're not pulling TB's of transfer on your account most of the big ones. ( Hostmonster, godaddy, etc) probably wouldn't care.

Also, if his maps are are bzipped then why would he need the .bsp mimetype?

If you look on the first page, he only have bsp files no bz2

[sieze]

lol i just tossed the bsps adnd crap in the download list seems to work fine

[loopyman]

Try to bz2 the maps if the .bsp mime type isn't working.

They're all correct, I had the same issue using my Godaddy windows IIS server. IIS will not permit a file to download if the MIME type isn't on the MIME list. So you need to add the following types to the list yourself or have your host add it to IIS (if you are using a windows server/ If you're not I can't help you).

Extension - MIME
.bsp - application/octet-stream
.nav - application/octet-stream
.bz2 - application/octet-stream

You might need it for other file types also depending on what add-ons you have. Add the MIME then restart IIS. If it works you should be able to simply go to http://www.yourdomain.com/directory/yourmap.bsp and it should download right there in your web browser.

Tacos.
