Anyone? No? I would like to be able to play magic again but this is stupid. I haven't done anything different than any of the other times ive installed this program.

I just tried it and it worked for me.  The problem must be on your end, did you change anything since your last successful installation?

Something you might want to do is update Lackey. I couldn't get the MTG plugin to load at all a while back ago, and the problem was solved by updating Lackey itself. Even if you shouldn't need to update, try it anyway.

so an update. i completely deleted lackey and downloaded a new file from here. unzipped the file and tried to update. this is what i get

Download failed. error=0x800C0005

Then i tried to install magic on lackey with http://www.siegescg.com/magicthegathering/high/updatelist.txt
I got error timed out again.

this sucks

I am experiencing this same issue. Lackey Build Date 9-22-14, using both http://www.siegescg.com/magicthegathering/high/updatelist.txt and http://www.siegescg.com/magicthegathering/medium/updatelist.txt as update URLs. This same error occurs on both a new installation on a Windows XP 32 bit computer and on a previous version of Lackey running on a Windows 7 64 bit machine that I updated on 12/20 to the latest version. I tried installing a different plugin ( http://www.lackeyccg.com/pokemon/high/updatelist.txt ) and it worked fine so it appears to be an issue specifically with the magic plugin.

Thoughts on resolution?

It's possible the site that hosts that plugin was down when you tried. Is it still not working? Can you visit the link in a web browser?

Just had Erv come into a room talking about the issue. He wasnt able to get either high or medium quality. I can visit the site on a web browser, so dunno what the issue is overall.

I am also having the same issue "Error: timed out while updating the plugin". I just reinstalled Lackey and the website appears to be working properly in a browser. Thanks for looking into this.

Trevor. The link itself works, but there seems to be some sort of issue between the link and the use of it through LackeyCCG. I've tried updating it through my home network, a couple local networks, and my cell phone network. Its not a firewall issue or some sort of security measure as I've gone through and made sure everything even resembling security was disabled in order to test for that. Are any other plugins having an issue? I only know/use the magic one, so I am not sure if there is an issue with just the magic plugin and lackey, or if it is perhaps an issue with lackey having with plugins after a recent update or pathway change...

so how can it be fixed?

[Murb]

No idea. I've been trying to figure out how to fix it, but have no ideas. Willing to get any suggestions people might have.

Ok, here is what I have run into.  I hope it helps you out in your search for what the problem is.

Since I couldn't install/update this plugin either, I thought I would go at it in a completely different approach.  What I did was to make a "updatelist.txt" file also using an exact copy of your file.  I placed it on a page of a site I run, and used that address & file to try the Install/Update.  In doing that, instead of getting the "timeout error", I got the following:

1.  It states:  "Updating plugin from URL: http://files.enjin.com/856179/updatelist.txt

2.  It then states"  "There is a newer verson of plugins/magic/version.txt. Local checksum:0. Remote checksum:242325. Preparing to download...    (Which it does this for every entry in your .txt file as I don't have the plugin installed yet, lol.)

3.  It then states:  "===>Downloading magic plugin update. When all files are done downloading, if you are updating a plugin, you must relaunch LackeyCCG for this update to take effect. If you are installing a new plugin, when all the files are done downloading, use the "Browse installed plugins to load one" button to select it."

4.  It then states:  "Download Failure: plugins/magic/version.txt from http://www.siegescg.com/magicthegathering/high/version.txt...   (Which it does this for every entry in your .txt file again.)

5.  It finishes with:  "ERROR.AutoUpdate process is done, but nothing was successfully downloaded."

I know you thought that maybe something on Lackey's end, from a patch/update perhaps, was causing an inability to Install/Update for many of us - it seems that the problem is highly likely to be on your site.  What the issue is, I don't have a clue, lol.  I'll leave my link up for you to use during your troubleshooting of this.  As soon as you get it fixed, let me know and I will gladly remove my link to your work.

Good luck and looking forward to the fix!
