I have a similar issue to that discussed here: http://www.playonmac.com/en/topic-7919-PlayOnLinux_website_is_unavailable.html

Unfortunately, neither of the fixes helped me. I am running POL 4.0.13 with ubuntu 11.10 32-bit. If I type the following command

wget -q "http://repository.playonlinux.com/version2.php?v=4.0.7" -T 10 -O-

I get the usual "unable to resolve host" error, but when I type this:

wget www.google.com

it works just fine. Here is the error when I Playonlinux and try to access one of the lists:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/install.py", line 258, in search
self.apps = codecs.open(Variables.playonlinux_rep+"/configurations/listes/search",'r',"utf-8")
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/codecs.py", line 881, in open
file = __builtin__.open(filename, mode, buffering)
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/arman/.PlayOnLinux//configurations/listes/search'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/install.py", line 374, in AddApps

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/codecs.py", line 881, in open
file = __builtin__.open(filename, mode, buffering)
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/arman/.PlayOnLinux//configurations/listes/5'
I tried adding my ISP nameservers to resolv.conf, as well as running the bash script provided here: http://www.playonmac.com/en/topic-7919-PlayOnLinux_website_is_unavailable.html

Neither worked, any suggestions?

Yeah, I'm working on it

It seems that the problem comes from the -T 10", I don't know why

Hi,
Please, can you post the result of: dig repository.playonlinux.com.

Sorry for the slow reply (time difference + had to go to work!). Here is what happens when I run dig:

arman@arman-XPS-M1530:~$ dig repository.playonlinux.com

Ok, the problem has been identified, and should be solved in PlayOnLinux 4.0.14

You might try it if you wish

Great, thanks for the quick response, I appreciate it. When will the new version be available? I still only see 4.0.13 on the website.

Download it to beta.playonlinux.com (Thé latest 4.0.14)
