juli_ Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) Hibeen sent here by a mate to dl the above,and i keep getting a forbidden message when trying to download.I am installing the software on my gfs fathers pc tomorrow who doesent have internet...please help?So you'll be using the disc? Can you explain a bit more? When do you get the 'forbidden' message, as soon as you try and download? Or part way through? Is there a specific error code, like a number or something?And what does 'dl the above' mean? I didn't understand Edited March 14, 2008 by juli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyhopkin Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 (edited) Hithanks for the quick reply"dl the above" i.e download the above file in the thread heading,being sonicstage full installer.i go to this link:http://www.atraclife.com/downloads/download.php?file=19click on the "i agree" button,and instead of the download commencing i get this message:----------------------------------ForbiddenYou don't have permission to access /temp/1/SS40_MDCF.exe on this server.Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. ---------------------------------I am preseuming this 34mb file is either a .exe or .iso which i can install the full sonic stage software offline,without having to download any installation files from the internet from my girlfriends fathers pc later today,as he has no internet connection.

juli_ Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Hmmmm, maybe you clicked on an outdated link. Did you try downloading it from somewhere else? Like here?http://support.sony-europe.com/DNA/softwar...stage_dl.asp?l=It's so long since I installed mine that I can't remember if I needed an internet connection, but I vaguely remember one part of the installation taking a long time. I think maybe the SS database registration requires internet access. When I use the backup tool to restore files, SS always needs internet access to 'authorise' the database before it restores, so I'd imagine it also needs it on installation also. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyhopkin Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 That link you give is the official sony download link,where an internet connection is required for online installation,downloading the required files "on the fly".the download link on this website is the full unofficial download with all files required for installation contained in the download.thanks for your help,maybe a site admin can maybe explain the dead link or remove it?

GRB Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I've just reported the same problem on the HDD section. Still isn't working, it's the SS 4.0 full installer on this forum that is faulty, not a download from the Sony site.Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
