Servers Down Again?

Featured Replies

Wow again and again getting the error code "Weather load error: The magic number in GZip header is not correct. Make sure you are passing in a GZip stream." This is really starting to slow things down at least fix it when this happens so we can use old weather to fly. This has happened several times last few months are they getting ready to bail on us?

That message has nothing to do with the state of the servers. that indicates a corrupt download - possible a flaky internet connection or a whole slew of other causes unrelated to the HiFi servers. if the sdervers were down you would not get a connection and not get a download at all. If it keeps happening, I'd check your system, otherwise it's just one of those things that happens and will clear up by itself. However, there's nothing that HiFi can do to "fix" your problem.

 

And they are doing fine - new stuff is in the pipeline so no one is bailing.

Im not to first to post this problem and it seems that more than several people keep having this problem. You see in each case including mine, my internet is working with any site I go to, but when I try to go online with this system I keep getting that message, when I do a search on forum, same thing for people all over the world. Hey just a consumer trying to get what I paid for, just asking if there is a way to allow program to overide when that happens so we can use the last weather that I had instead of not being able to use program. I noticed also in the forums that was the conclusion of others that have had the same error message. Sorry to ruffles feathers but as stated, this is not a new problem, not upset just would like to see a way when it happens we can still use program.

If you have a problem open a support ticket at the HIFI support portal, no support is given in the forum. The forum is for the community to share their ideas and advice with one another.

Cheers, Andy.
