Both getflash-1.5.6 and a direct download from the Adobe website selecting ".tar.gz for Other Linux"
result in a download which seems to be tailored for KDE4 rather than generic and as a result getflash reports that the installation fails and webbrowser does not see the downloaded flashplayer.

I can obtain a working version from pkgs.org.....

Cheers

Do you tried the flashplayer packages on the ASRI édu forum ? It's a 32-bits package.

Which browser do you use ?

"unable to contact the server, please check your internet conection"

Internet does work with firefox.

I got that when my default web-browser [Firefox] was not up-to-date.
When I updated Firefox, and then ran getflash, it worked OK.

Make sure you are using the latest version of Getflash.

Adobe Flash Player keeps changing it's server location and Getflash has to be updated.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

I have installed the latest version of GetFlash, and now have version 11.2.202.540 which I believe is the up-to-date version for Linux and Firefox. I have also updated Firefox.
But when I wanted to watch some highlights from Australia and Scotland in the Rugby World Cup, I got a message telling me I need to upgrade my flash player to watch this video. :cry:

Any ideas?

This is with Precise (I'm pretty sure it is)

cheers

The latest version of getflash (1.5.6) uses different URLs.

Code: Select all

CHECKURL_32='://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_11.2_for_other_Linux_(.tar.gz)_32-bit&standalone=1'
CHECKURL_64='://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_11.2_for_other_Linux_(.tar.gz)_64-bit&standalone=1'
These URLs seem functional.

getflash-1.5-7

To automatically update the flash player plugin at the startup of the session, Geoffrey offers a convenient and effective utility => Adobe Flash Player Auto Updater http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=100523

bigpup gave me the idea to add this feature to the getflash utility => http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 989#868989

I also made other improvements/changes.

Code: Select all

#151028 v1.5-7 ASRI: add function autoupdate at startup, improve messages (SEE_*) of main GUI, stop to propose flashplayer9, improve test of download size, improve support of x64 arch, add options for boot (getflash -a -h), add prefs file, and other small changes...
To facilitate collaborative work, the files have been added to Woof-CE => https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... s/getflash

Thank you in advance for your tests and proposals.

Regards,

I need help to improve the file created in /root/.packages.
The size of the installed package is wrong.

Line 434: variable $LENGTH K

Code: Select all

NEWENTRY="flashplayer-$NEWVERSION-$ARCHSEE|flashplayer|$NEWVERSION-$ARCHSEE||Internet|$LENGTH K||flashplayer-$NEWVERSION-$ARCHSEE.pet||Preferences for Adobe Flash Player||||"
Line 240:

Code: Select all

LENGTH=$(curl -s -k -I "$DOWNLOADURL" | grep -i 'Content-Length:' | cut -s -f2 -d':'| tr -dc '0-9') || LENGTH=0
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
