[Dev-C++] Is the update server down?

[Mark L. W. <ma...@al...>]

Hello all!

I am trying to update my Dev-C++ to the latest version, but I am getting
errors trying to use the vUpdate.

Any news regarding the server status?

Am I doing something wrong?

vUpdate is history, Dev-C++ now uses differnt update component 
(WebUpdate). You will probably have to download new Dev-C++ manually 
from: http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html

Hi there,

Just to continue the thread, how can I change/add mirror sites to download
packs ? I cant find the option to do this??

Kind regards,

Ps/ I have already the last version of DevCppp and the Download Manager.

why would you do anythink like this? there are currently only two 
working devpak sites and both of them are by default in 4.9.9.0

anyway, here are instructions:
* Run Dev-C++ and open WebUpdate. Select PlanetMirror.com server and 
download "WebUpdate Mirrors list" (if you haven't done this already in 
past).
* Close Dev-C++.
* Locate the downloaded mirrors.cfg file. It would be somewhere like 
c:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\ under 
Win2000/XP or in the Dev-C++ directory under Win9x.
* Add/change mirror list as you want
