Sysinternals website is now using https

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 :)

File modification dates must be preserved during installation

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".
