09:36:09 <Adriang67> help with portable app download please
09:36:48 <TPFC-SYSTEM> What's your problem?
09:37:43 <Adriang67> downloads from the portable app are all failing
09:38:12 <Adriang67> geting redirection (301) error
09:38:25 <Olive6767> tried opera a few minutes ago, it indeed failed, but tried NotePad2 and it worked
09:40:00 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Hmm, it could be your proxy settings. Currently the Platform uses IE's proxy settings without asking.
09:40:59 <Adriang67> just tried notepad2 that failed too, could it be firewall related as there is no IE proxy
09:41:06 <MortifiedPenguin> Onscreen keyboard just worked
09:41:42 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Yes, it could be firewall related. You could try temporarily disabling your firewall.
09:43:56 <Adriang67> onboad keyboard failed too. I can download the apps direct from sourceforge.net it's just the redirect from the Portable App gui that fails
09:44:24 <Adriang67> I wil try disabling the firewall and come back if that doesn't solve it
09:44:37 <Adriang67> thank you for your help
09:44:46 <TPFC-SYSTEM> You're welcome. :)

09:45:51 <Olive6767> TPFC-SYSTEM: Hi, I got this morning your answers to my yesterday questions: re-installing my app on itself indeed didn't overwrite my config file, that's what I needed, thx :-) Now I have another question:
09:45:58 <MortifiedPenguin> Firewalls are so last year XD
09:47:06 <Olive6767> I would like my Lincece.txt file to be displayed by the installer, I have read somewhere that it simply needed to be renamed to to EULA.txt and put into the SOurce dir, I have tried that be it doesn't seem to work
09:49:52 <TPFC-SYSTEM> The Source directory is a wrong place. From http://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format :
09:50:05 <TPFC-SYSTEM> "An End User License Agreement (EULA) or other licensing file can be displayed in the PortableApps.com Installer by including an EULA.txt file in the App\AppInfo directory. The PortableApps.com Installer will automatically locate it and configure it for use. Please ensure that the license is in Unicode format and not ANSI."
09:50:50 <Olive6767> UTF-8 Whithout BOM is fine?
09:51:10 <TPFC-SYSTEM> I think so. Try it. :)
09:51:28 <Olive6767> Trying now
09:52:24 <Olive6767> working perfectly, thx !:)
09:52:44 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Sure thing. :)
09:54:42 <Olive6767> I'm currecntly reviewing my package against the Release CheckList, though I'm wondering, once this will be completed, where/how shall I submit my my app to PortableApps?
09:56:54 <TPFC-SYSTEM> http://portableapps.com/node/11772
09:57:15 <Olive6767> again, thx!
09:57:18 <TPFC-SYSTEM> First you need to create a Development Test release (guidelines in that post).
09:57:48 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Then you need to submit the application to the Beta Testing subforum: http://portableapps.com/forums/development/beta_testing
09:58:16 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Once it has been tested, reply to the thread above and wait. :)
09:58:37 <Olive6767> ok sounds good :)

16:39:33 <pa_2689> WHatever happened to Truecrypt app in PortableApps ?
16:43:08 <AluisioASG> pa_2689: We never had one.
16:46:36 <pa_2689> Thanks........Do you know if there is plans to add this to the suite? or is there another encryption app already there ?
16:54:05 <AluisioASG> We can't include anything like that because it would require admin rights on each computer. However, you can try using FreeOTFE Explorer, which doesn't needs admin rights: http://www.freeotfe.org/index.html
16:54:43 <AluisioASG> But then you'll need to extract files from the encrypted container, instead of just accessing them through Explorer.

22:45:47 <pa_2827> Help! I need to restore the Goolke
22:46:11 <JacobMastel> Hello pa_2827
22:46:29 <JacobMastel> What exactly seems to be the issue you are having?
22:47:08 <pa_2827> Thanks! I let PortableApps upgrade Chrome Portable and now I'm getting 'can't find Chrome.exe' message on execution
22:48:06 <JacobMastel> So you allowd the platform to run its automatic update feature correct?
22:48:15 <pa_2827> Yes
22:48:37 <JacobMastel> Okay, and when the install finished (the entire process not just chrome) did you get any error messages?
22:49:07 <pa_2827> No errors reported
22:49:53 <JacobMastel> Weird, I would suggest that you re-run the install for chrome. It will save all existing features, but it sounds like there may have been somekind of issue with the update.
22:50:57 <pa_2827> I'm mainly concerned about trying to preserve my bookmarks, just added a ton in last few days to special music DIY sites and don't want to lose them.
22:51:26 <JacobMastel> Do you sync Google chrome with your google/gmail account?
22:52:10 <pa_2827> Fortunately, I'm indepedent on email as I'm still running a Outlook client, so no.
22:53:47 <JacobMastel> Okay, well if it is of concern, you could run the backup that's built into the menu, however all the PA.c installers are written in a way to preserve your data so reinstalling won't be a problem so long as you don't delete it.
22:54:45 <pa_2827> Yes, I was able to run a backup of PortableApps to another drive. So should I point the reinstall (of Chrome Portable, right) to the same drive:/folder as the original PortableApps is on
22:55:26 <JacobMastel> When ran, it should automatically choose its install path assuming the drive is plugged in. Just let it do it's thing.
22:56:36 <pa_2827> Also are we talking about a standalone Chrome Portable install, right. When I did an update check within the PortableApps window it reported that Chrome Portable was up-to-date. I dont' think it can be forced from there, right?
22:57:50 <JacobMastel> No it cannot be forced from there. What do you mean standalone? All of the applications are "standalone" in the sense they don't need the menu to run.
22:58:57 <pa_2827> OK, my question is then how do I run the re-install of Chrome Portable? I have PortableApps intact on a drive and running.
22:59:24 <JacobMastel> You can download the installer from the website, then just run it and it will install.
22:59:41 <pa_2827> You mean the PortableApps installer?
22:59:49 <JacobMastel> No, the chrome installer
23:00:11 <pa_2827> Sorry to be specific, you mean the Chrome Portable installer, right?
23:00:22 <JacobMastel> http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable
23:00:23 <JacobMastel> Yes
23:01:00 <pa_2827> Ok, I'm off to do it. Thanks for your advise!! and Happy Holidays to you and yours.
23:01:18 <JacobMastel> No problem, glad to help.
