[Solved] JDoawnloader and Archive.org - Showing Offline, but...

Hello,

I am having an issue with trying to download files from Archive.org, but it isn't caused from not having my Archive.org account setup within Jdownloader.

I have a archive.org webpage that gives me multiple clickable links. Each link is to a specific file and if I manually click the link the file will start to download in my browser, but if I paste the link into Jdownloader it tells me that the file is not online even though I just clicked the link manually and downloaded the file fine.

I have even did the process in reverse and I tested to see if Jdownloader would tell me a different file was not online, and after pasting the file link into Jdownloader... the program told me the file wasn't online so I clicked the file within my browser and it started downloading just fine.

I won't post the archive.org site or link here, but if a mod wants me to message them the site address I will do that so they can try it out.

I am not sure if I am just missing an option in jdownloader, or if it is something else?

Thanks for the help.

Please send example links to support@jdownloader.org

You've got to copy the URL from browser url, NOT the direct download url which is very likely be bound to session. JDownloader plugin supports the details/downloads url format

I sent an example link to the email address you provided.

If that is the case with the link I sent... is there any easy way to convert that link to a browser URL?

Thanks.

I've answered via mail. You're trying to add the direct link which doesn't work. You've got to add the main link, see answer
