Update: HTTP server returned error 403

When I try to update the database I only get this error. I’m behind a firewall, but until yesterday everything worked just fine.

This is from the log file:
while trying to get file ‘servers.def’, error 0x20000006 has occured

From which server? (it should’ve said that).

Thanks.

No problems here… ::slight_smile:
Are you using a proxy?

It seems that someone has been playing around with our proxy server.
All I had to do was to specify the proxy address. Strange it worked before witout that. tnx.
