Update Servers Down

**blockbuy** · 06-01-2012, 02:24 PM

ooooooh - another update due?????

There was an error connecting to the update server
Please try again later (66048 )

not here. Probably a network error ... since this is a client message, not a server maintenance one.

I am getting the same thing too. I tried to see if there was a small update (read there was a 13mb update after 2.1), and got that message. Maybe it is another update, but maybe it is because a lot of people were trying to download the beta. A lot of more patient people (not me) wait a day or more before updating incase it screws everything up.

Edit: I just restarted and works now. No update though.

I've had this error since I loaded the new Beta.

Actually, might be an update of 13 MB ;-) was me.
Cool you got it back connected. Restart is often a good ... start to solve many issues

Just doing the update now without a hitch...95% finished. Downloading at a good clip as well. Oops just made 100%

Now Installing.

Still the update servers are down when I try. A 2.1 feature????

**kill_9** · 06-03-2012, 06:05 AM

According to acquaintances Research In Motion experienced intermittent network connectivity problems overnight. I cannot verify this claim but there you go boys and girls. There is not likely to be any official BBOS 2.1 release next Tuesday.

**hpjrt** · 06-03-2012, 06:32 AM

So this is an update to the 2.1 beta?

**blockbuy** · 06-07-2012, 04:32 AM

Still get the error message when checking for update.

What update are you refering too please?

I'm already on 2.1 beta - just clicking the update button.

**blockbuy** · 06-08-2012, 05:44 AM

a stop/start seems to have resolved this. strange as it's been cycled a couple of times.

hey

**Lendo78** · 09-23-2012, 12:31 PM

I'm getting that error too, gonna try a reboot.

**Lendo78** · 09-23-2012, 12:33 PM

1MB update after the restart.. hrm.. and requires another restart

**CairnsRock** · 09-23-2012, 12:45 PM

Strange to me that a server problem is taken as a prelude to an update.

If RIM need to shut down a server prior to an update, then they are bad shape indeed.

**Lendo78** · 09-23-2012, 12:47 PM

Well it would seem that it was from updating and not rebooting. After I did a restart it worked fine

**BB_Bmore** · 09-23-2012, 12:48 PM

I think something announced at Jam will explain the problems they have been having with the servers this week..there is a transitioning happening in Waterloo..a big one.

**belidzs** · 09-23-2012, 12:58 PM

Yesterday I was trying to update to beta for the first time, but even though I registered my PIN on the developer site, I never get the update notification. Even if I press the check for updates button. Bummer.

**BB_Bmore** · 09-23-2012, 01:08 PM

Register again. I've had to do this a time or two.

**belidzs** · 09-23-2012, 01:45 PM

I registered like five times. However, I tried to use a UK proxy (I live in Hungary), and now my PB finally triggered the notification. since the proxy is very slow, I cleared my proxy settings, but fortunately the downloading process continued without any problem. I can't see why Hungarian users can't be developers for rim devices, but I've pretty much got used to it
