Sysinternals website is now using https

[fmezou]

Hello,

The Sysinternals website is now using https, so the URLs contained in the 'StaticDownloadLinks-sysinternals.txt' must be changed as below :

Code: Select all

https://download.sysinternals.com/files/autologon.zip
https://download.sysinternals.com/files/sigcheck.zip
https://download.sysinternals.com/files/streams.zip


A fresh installation of the current version (10.4) is not working and stop in the 'DownloadSysinternals' section of 'DownloadUpdates.cmd'.

Regards

Use these: viewtopic.php?p=17828#p17828

The 'Wget'-version used by WSUSOU does not support HTTPS.

one possibility: all the utilities can be download from
http://live.sysinternals.com
There is no https

Cheers Matjes

just I recognized, that some utilities are offered too on
https://live.sysinternals.com/

Seems, that they will change soon to https too

File modification dates must be preserved during installation

A fresh installation of the current version (10.4) is not working and stop in the 'DownloadSysinternals' section of 'DownloadUpdates.cmd'.

One problem with fresh installations seems to be, that the "Update of Static Download Definitions" sometimes doesn't work.

The file StaticDownloadLinks-sysinternals.txt should get updated after installation, as described recently in:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5409b#p17668

Note, that wget uses timestamping at all steps: Updated files are only downloaded, if the remote file really is newer. But there are already two reports, where this download was skipped with the message:

Code: Select all

Server file no newer than local file `../static/StaticDownloadLinks-sysinternals.txt' -- not retrieving.

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5440
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5439

This means:

When the archive wsusoffline104.zip is unpacked, the archiver must preserve the file modifications dates.
WinRAR and the free 7-Zip both seem to work.

Hi boco,
Well I changed http to https as shown in my post, and the DowloadUpdates script works as waited... but I'm using a proxy for the internet connection.

The wget.exe included in WSOSOU does not support SSL. Using https:// links, I get "Unsupported scheme".
