Hi there,
You should fix the download section:
I’'ve just downloaded spark_2_0_7_online.exe. The file has 0 MB and is empty.

Hi there,
that was a fast fix ;o). Thanks!
Next thing I’'m unable to find after your website revision
are the jive-emoticons.
Is there by any chance a recent link for download?
Cheers
Nope, download still broke.

Is automatic reconnects on lost connections in this version? It appears it might be, but I just want to be sure.

Hi Scott,
can you see the avatars in the forum? Do you use a proxy or an anti virus software?
I wonder if your proxy/av software has a problem with “Content-Disposition”.

Hi,
thanks for this release!
I can’'t verify the resolution of bug SPARK-443 - The Translator plug-in does not work.
I don’'t see any effect from that plugin (I installed it and restarted Spark), no matter which Languages I select.
Thanks,
Marco

Hi,
sorry But I to find that translations are still not functional.
Lance
Same here, the translations do not seem to work & the Translator Plugin Readme readme.html shows:
Overview: The plugin allows for blocking of file transfers dependent on file type or users. Not to mention when you try to go to the readme/changelog from within the plugin menu on spark it gives you dead urls -

500 Servlet Exception
java.util.zip.ZipException: No such file or directory
Thanks
I recently downloaded spark_2_0_7.tar.gz but it will not unpack. I’'ve tried it on Debian Sarge and RHEL es v4, no luck. I tried with:
tar -zxvf spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
the error message I get is
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Read 2172 bytes from spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I also tried
gunzip spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
tar -xvf spark_2_0_7.tar
same error message ;-(
The filesize is 23875783 bytes, downloaded using firefox on Linux Debian Sarge running Kde
I also tried the alternative link
Any ideas?
I also have exactly this problem. Is there a previous version I can download?

I had the same issue initially.
gunzip spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
tar xvf spark_2_0_7.tar
That worked for me on Fedora Core 4.

seems like the archive is gzipped twice
This works for me:
gunzip spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
mv spark_2_0_7.tar spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
gunzip spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
tar xvf spark_2_0_7.tar
I’'ve managed to download it, by a different method:
wget -O spark-2.0.7.tar.gz http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=spark/spark_2_0_7.tar.gz
This method gives me a different filesize (23965820 bytes) and it unpacks OK
next:
I unpacked it and ran Spark from desktop, no joy, so I ran it again from CL and caught the error message. It was looking for a dir ‘‘windows’’ under lib so I created it and ran from desktop again, bingo!
I have logged in to my jabber server OK
so far so good, now to investigate wildfire, which a friend tells me is behaving similarly

Release Notes - Spark - Version 2.0.7
SPARK-428 - Fixed issue with removing start on startup in preferences.
I seem to be seeing an issue where if the user is not a Local Admin, when they try to set Spark to launch on startup under Preferences - it will not work. This does work when the user is a Local Admin.
Hi Raven,
Yes, this is occuring because Spark is using the windows registry to set itself to start on startup. I’'m looking into better alternatives to get this working.
Cheers,
Derek
