Any idea why I'm getting this message when attempting to open the 1.2
DMG?

Most likely because you didn't download all of it. Try downloading it
again.

I'm having the same issue - have tried downloading twice.
I'm running OS X 10.5.8. Is anybody else able to mount the image:

Try downloading it in another browser.

You mean Growl won't download properly on Firefox 3.5.3 for Mac??

[Chris Forsythe]

I mean you should try something else if something isn't working. The
definition of insanity is trying to the same thing over and over again
and expecting different results.

I just downloaded it in safari, and it opened fine. Try it in safari.

This is the direct link:

Any other browsers I should try?

Same thing here!. disk image not recognized..

[Christopher Forsythe]

I have a few google engineers in #growl on irc right now working through the problem. You can retry downloading for now, but it'll fail randomly. Once they say it's working again I'll email the list.

Same - running Snow Leopard - disk image not recognized.

What's up?

[Phegm]

Same - disk image not recognized.

Read what I said, they're working on it.

[Christopher Forsythe]

Ok, try downloading it now.

[MRW]

Same problem here. Tried multiple browsers, multiple machines, and
multiple times. Definitely an issue with the DMG.

Thanks for the great software, and the support!

[Tamas]

It's fairly slow. D/l speed hovering around 5k/s... I guess google's
engineers are still tweaking.

[Christopher Forsythe]

Ugh, ya. Googlers are looking into it more. One of us will let the list know when we get a message to try it again.

Chris

[Christopher Forsythe]

They are indeed. Thanks for the info Tamas

So apparently we are pushing more traffic than the Google Code team expected, and we caught them off guard. They're working on fixing that, but it's going to be more than a few days. The reason we are using GC in the first place to host the download file is because we were pushing quite a bit of traffic with the 1.1.6 release, and that was causing a large amount of issues for Network Redux.

So, this all said, we can either find a mirror or two for a few days until GC fixing their problem (they assure us that we won't see this in the future once they fix it), or we can sit and wait. Downloads will eventually work, you just may have to try it a few times to get it to work.

Perhaps cachefly could help?

[Christopher Forsythe]

Ya, perhaps. Been waiting on him to get online :)

Chris

[i.aten...@gmail.com]

.torrent?

[Christopher Forsythe]

Can you not download from cachefly now?

[i.aten...@gmail.com]

i'm alright; got in there early :)

just throwing the thought out.

[Christopher Forsythe]

We just needed a better mirror. Not to make the download process more difficult for users. :)

[Nicholas Sanders]

Does this report have any relevance?

Probably not since the download was corrupt due to what we've been talking about in this thread.

[Nicholas Sanders]

OK
