Summary: Adobe Download Manager (getplus) flaky, hangs (dogfood) Product: Wine Version: 1.1.6 Platform: Other URL: http://adobe.com/reader OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
In Firefox3, downloading Adobe Reader 9 for Windows is done via a plugin, Adobe Download Manager. This installs and runs, but gets very confused, cycling back and forth between "downloading" and "downloading interrupted". After a few cycles it hangs. Sometimes in the log there is evidence of memory corruption (though warn+heap scares it off, it also makes the app crash faster).
The log shows the URL of the actual thing being downloaded, and wget can download it without trouble.
