Sirbendy Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 We've got some job vacancies uploaded to our website, and I'm having calls about "people can't download them" and "they're corrupt". Madeley Academy Sports College Is the address, and there are 3 zips on there. From my end, they seem fine. On the server, they seem fine too. Extracted, they're fine...yet people are having issues. Since all of our traffic runs through a netcache, I can't guarantee I'm not seeing cached copies..can anyone out there try to download/extract them and see if they have issues? Many thanks...
TechMonkey Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) Seem ok to me. I didn't save them, just opened them. All files within the zip opened fine. EDIT: Tell a lie. In the Competition Manager zip there seems to be 2 copies of the person spec. If you open one as well as the other it will fail to open. Could be this they are getting confused about?

elsiegee40 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I've opened everything successfully here: We're on XP SP2, Office 2003 and Acrobat Reader 7.0
sparkeh Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 All fine here - no problems downloading, unzipping or opening. Using Vista SP1, Firefox, winzip, Foxit and Office 2007. Behind EMBC firewall.
tomscaper Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 All downloaded, uncompressed and opened fine for me. XP SP2, Firefox and IE, Office 2003, Acrobat Reader 8
flashsnaps Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Downloaded all 3 and opened them all, no problems to report!
enjay Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 The English Teacher one worked fine for me (downloaded, extracted, opened Word doc and 1 pdf), didn't try the others.
Michael Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 All fine here too, using XP SP2, Adobe Reader 8.1.2 and Word 2003 SP3. As well as the Adobe Plugin I would recommend you place a link to Word Viewer 2003. It does help a lot of people.
Sirbendy Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 Thankyou everybody, that's excellent.. Looks like a problem with the end user then..typical eh? As to the viewer...good point, I'll implement it.. Thankyou all!
elsiegee40 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Nice bit of applicant filtering methinks! If they can't open it, you really don't want to have to support them at school!
bizzel Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Our grid filter classifies your site as gambling, that'd certainly cause a problem for applicants!
sirsir Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) Our Cache Pilot also blocks your site - will investigate further. Tom Edited June 6, 2008 by sirsir spelling

Pete10141748 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Site is fine here, as are all of the files within the folders (I didn't have to do the "Extract" to view them, but did that as well and its fine both ways) Dunno what the problem is, must be an id10t error
