The forum

Ok, I have read the news and I can't find a solution to this anywhere. When I go to install a game, let's say Oblivion, the installation box comes up and I click forward. Then is says which CD blah blah blah. Then comes up with the "creating prefix" and then an error comes up saying: "Following server is no longer available: -mulx.playonlinux.com" and I am forced to cancel.
What do I do to make this work?

Yo have a problem when you download Directx9?
Because, when o launch the game, i can download Directx9...

It's strange :s

No, I can't download DX 9

Bump

Same issue, i can get to mulx.playonlinux.com through a web browser but not through playonlinux's oblivion installation script.

but i can install a wine version! still no dx9

isnt D3DX9_XX dlls on the same server?

okay i dowloaded 3.7-3 and it let me continue the installation without dx9.
downgrading to 3.7 should work too and just install dx9 manually/polscript

how would i go about downgrading, PlayOnLinux isn't in my repositories

delete/replace files? thats what i did.

you can get 3.7-3 from this thread: http://www.playonmac.com/en/topic-2930-2.html

they say to 'read the news' but i cant find the 'news' about this update anywhere but the bug forums

Hi,
What apps are you installing ?
It's probably a bad url in the script if you can access to this page : http://mulx.playonlinux.com

Oblivion is the only one I know.

okay i checked out the script and it points to http://mulx.playonlinux.com/files/D3DX9_XX_dll_(32Bit_All).zip

i can get there in my web browser but not through the script!

oblivion has installed before so i doubt its the script, or it changed?

this is still an problem, can i get some help?

ubuntu jaunty 9.04 gnome
PlayOnLinux 3.7-3 and 3.7-1

"The following server is no longer available:
-mulx.playonlinux.com"

Thanks for your time.

Do you know if you have network through a proxy in your web browser ?

no proxy, but maybe connection timed out?

i haven't tried the oblivion script through PoL but i got oblivion working by manually running the script

good software by the way! makes it really simple to install for a beginner like me

Hi...
This problem seems to still not be fixed? Which... well, really sucks. Is there anything that can be done? Something that's not too technically challenging? ;)
A new script or?
I hope to hear from someone soon.
