Hi, I am having a problem with downloading a file to my android device.

I’ve found out that the problem is that the file name has spaces in it…

can network.download work with spaces?

Thanks, Greg

You didn’t include the “android” part in your post (could be the problem?), as in

settings

{
 android =
 {
  versionCode = “11”,
  usesPermissions =
   {
   “android.permission.INTERNET”,
   “android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE”,
   “android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION”,
   “android.permission.ACCESS_COURSE_LOCATION”,
  },
 },

}

Hi mpappas,

It was actually a simple miss… I didn’t replace spaces in the url…!)

network.download( “http://www.crosstrainer.ca/playmate/”…string.gsub( downloadFile, "% ", “%%20”),
        “GET”,

Thanks for the reply, Greg
