Append gpu_mem=16 to /boot/config.txt to give us more RAM at expense of GPU

Trim SD card (allow 60mB of unallocated partition) to fit on all (or majority) of 4GB SD cards, shop pre-built SD cards included with emonPi / emonBase will be 8GB with ~/data partition expanded accordingly.
I’m unable to complete the download of this file. It bombs out at around 1GB with a “Interrupted (NETWORK_FAILED)” message.
Anyone else getting this? Is there an alternate link I can try?
OK… after many many restarts I finally manged to download the file.
As a test I tried with the 8GB_emonSD-29Apr16.img.zip file and that downloaded fine. Server problems?
This time, I did the transfer at home, so different computer ISP, everything.
The earlier transfers were done from my office. We do share the WiFi “campus-wide” so to speak, but it’s a 50 Mb pipe to the internet backbone, possibly a 100 Mb link, not sure. I know that it runs much faster than the 18 Mb link I have at home.
The one thing in common each time the transfer stopped was the byte count. Both times it was at 1.0 GB when it aborted.
Ok, I have just been able to replicate the issue at work. Very strange. I have posted an alternate server mirror download link as an alternative. Is anyone able to host another mirror for us? Ideally in the USA? @Bill.Thomson?
I will have to investigate. I think the issue is could be due to HTTPS and cloudflare.
ok, I think issue should be fixed. I created a page rule on Clodflare to disable caching in the /files folder. I have just been able to complete a download at work.
No, but looks interesting. I don’t think it would have helped solve this issue but would be since we could host the large image file on a remote server while tracking changes for the image file in the emonPi repo on github. I will have a go at setting this up.
I’ve just white listed cloudflares IP addresses which act as a proxy. I think our web server thought it was under attack do the high volume of traffic funnelled through these IP’s. They should now be white listed so should not be limited any more.
