Microsoft's website doesn't say anything...

This is only available for Team System MSDN Subscribers, right? I can't see it in my list, but I don't have the Team System subscription (just the "developer edition" version).

When logging in , I get a nice .NET error about Home.aspx not being pre-compiled.

Not all types of MSDN subscriptions can see it yet!

I talked to the 'online concierge' and they are clueless about this release.... she said the 'pre-compiled' error is a known issue and they were working on it. She said they'll know it has been released when it shows up on the download page.

horrayyyy microsoft!

Am I the only one getting an error trying to access the microsoft subscription page?

It seems to be redirecting through
https://msdn.one.microsoft.com/home.aspx

Error: The file '/home.aspx' has not been pre-compiled, and cannot be requested.

'Server too busy'

Well I guess im not, now im getting a different error:
[HttpException (0x80004005): Server Too Busy]

I guess this was to be expected to some extent.

Yeah, it is being released in phases depending on your MSDN subscription type. "Pro" doesn't have it yet.

posted by brianjlowry(640) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

I'm download "Pro" right now:

Ah, I see the links on the homepage, now.

posted by mmalloy(0) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

All I get is Network error. This working for you?

posted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

Yeah, they are utilizing Akamai to handle the demand, if you use links from this page: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/default.aspx.

You may need to turn off your pop-up blocker to get the Akami plug-in to install.

I guess I should clarify, this is true for MSDN subscribers. I'm not referring to the trial downloads.

posted by mmalloy(0) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

I have the plug-in installed. The window comes up showing the progress, but then it errors out.
Probably a firewall thing here at the office.

posted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

Could be, especially since it opens multiple connections at a time.

I couldn't get the stupid akami plugin working in ie7...I had to download it in firefox to get it to work...go microsoft!

If your FAQ page on downloading files is this big: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/bb153537.aspx
Then you've chosen poorly.

I've tried downloading overnight twice now. Each time it aborted with a fatal error (first time at 66% complete, second at 88%). I never had any problems with the old MSDN download manager. What a waste of bandwidth. :(

posted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 6 months ago 0

Ditto... got all the way to 93% last night. GRRRR. I can't believe there's not a way to continue a download! Especially a 3.3GB one.
