 I just went to download my groups this morning and poof all got the invalid page format. Looks like yahoo has changed something again.


 Is anyone else getting this????

 I got mine working again by doing these options: Under file click options. Then.......



workflow : check on skip authorization


Download: check on  Speed 75 msg

uncheck: repeat

uncheck: enable messages caching

Refresh Groups:

check: refresh on startup

check: Download 1000 messages/group

check: loop 1 times

Looks like Yahoo may have changed something again -- turning off caching works for me (though I'm just in the process so I hope I don't get the weird subject lines again).

Yes, all my groups return an invalid page format error also.

I'm not changing any settings until this is looked at.
Everything was working fine last night.

Reikidragon

Changing the settings worked great for me. There was no garbled message lines and the posts came through and not a blank page.  So if you need to download the groups then you have an option.

 P.s. Glad it works for everyone else too!

Hi Manfred,

The format is certainly changed. We will issue a patch as soon as possible.

I would recommend you try Alex's suggestion, but keep a note of your old settings.

Cheers,

Wilson.

Seems that the authorization option is the problem. leaving all else the same, but checking off "skip authorization" results in succesful transfers.

Except that, if you have more than one ID, only the currently logged in ID works. The other options mentioned above don't seem to have any effect of the invalid page fault, at least not in my case.

Hi All,

John Stevenson reports:

"Looks like the first stab at refresh gets the page error message, After
it's run the list of groups if you hit refresh again it works."

Others have reported this working for them also.

Cheers,

Wilson.

The suggested work around doesnot work for me. See me previous post re: the authorization issue.

Wilson Logan

Hi Manfred,

I'm hoping to have a patch for this by Thursday.

Cheers,

Wilson.

Wilson,

Just an FYI - I am downloading just fine as long as "Skip authorization" is checked. If I need to add a group = the Get Groups returns an invalid page, but if I add it manually it works fine for me.

Yup, that'll do it.

I'm adding groups manually & I'm doing a double refresh which comes to the same thing.

Cheers,

Wilson.

How is the patch coming?

Some of my groups have said invalid page format for over a week while others with the same user ID have been refreshing OK.

Hi Manfred,

Sorry, I'm still waiting on word from the developer.

Are you still able to download groups by using one of the workarounds?

Cheers,

Wilson.
