Bad Request

[betzw]

Since yesterday I am experiencing heavy problems when trying to update Qt components over the MaintainanceTool. Basically I am ending up immediately with an error massage of type, e.g.:

Network error while downloading target ...
Error: Error downloading https://download.qt-project.org/online/qtsdkrepository/... - server replied: Bad Request.

Does anybody else experience the same problem or is more likely a problem of my companies proxy server?

Thanks in advance,
Wolfgang

Yes, similar problems here:

and maybe here:

Hi,

I haven't seen the "Bad Request" error before, but have encountered other issues with downloads.

Perhaps choosing a different mirror might help: https://forum.qt.io/topic/43349/

@JKSH Hi JKSH,

I have taken a look at the different mirror helper program. Unfortunately, it does not support proxy settings and being myself behind a firewall it not of any help to me.

Any other idea would be welcome because I have slightly the impression that my problems is somehow related to the relocation of the qt-project from .org to .io

Thanks again,
Wolfgang

Hi @betzw,

Unfortunately I don't have experience with using the Qt installer behind proxies. All I know is there's a place for you to tell the installer which proxy to use -- when you launch MaintenanceTool.exe, click "Update components" or "Package manager", and then click "Settings".

If you don't find any answers here, try subscribing to the Interest mailing list and asking there. Qt engineers might be able to help you.

Hi @JKSH,
I know about the proxy settings of the MaintenanceTool.exe but did not find any possibility for setting a proxy in the QtSdkRepoChooser.exe tool :-(
Anyway, thanks for the tip with the Interest mailing list. I will try there.
Ciao Wolfgang
