Not a bug Can't download 2.3 release cantidate

[PhineasD]

Affected version

2.3 RC1

When the RC1 announcement came out I was able to download the update for 1 of my 2 active licenses. Now I'm trying to download the file for the second one but it doesn't give me the option, and if I look at the other license I can't either

Thread 'How to download Beta, RC, and older versions'

Jul 26, 2020

This question comes up numerous times when a new beta is announced - both here on the forum and in tickets.

To download any version, first log in to your customer account.

Click on the orange [Download...] button - you can click on either the text on the left side of the button, or the arrow on the right.




Choose the product - in this case XF and click [Continue].




Click in the Version field at the top and a drop down list will appear.




Choose the version.

I can't see the option in the dropdown

Ok, the problem is that 2.3 is shown below 2.2.x and 2.1.x and this can cause confusion. It should be displayed at the top as before.

I would hold off for a moment, we're doing a patch release anyway. Well, actually, because of the way versions work, we're releasing Release Candidate 2 already.

 

[Chris D]

Release Candidate 2 is now available.

it seems to be 531MB big

 

[Chris D]

What

 

[Chromaniac]

that's how it is downloading here!



pack-47b8c1b04b019ea49217a267f6b9220f003ba0d1.pack file in upload\src\vendor\joypixels\emoji-toolkit\.git\objects\pack\ seems to be the issue.

It would be nice if one could download 2.3 RC 1 as long as RC 2 is not available ...

 

[Chris D]

RC2 is now available again.

All that extra bulk must have been the secret bundle including the unreleased V3 as well. I can't believe I missed it!

I can't believe I missed it!

I opened it and it was just Kier signing this song.

RC2 is now available again.

I managed to upgrade when the package was large. Are there any folders I might need to delete and reupload from the updated RC2 package to save space? Only asking as I think it was like 500 megs.

The best thing to do if you can is take your forum offline momentarily. Delete the src/vendor/ directory and then re-upload that from a fresh download.
