ARC Revolution Error When Downloading A Robot

Hello,

So I am trying to sync my library so I can download some 3D printable robots but I am getting this error:

Downloading library index...

Comparing against your library...
Download 12 EZ-Bits... (This may take a while)

Just tried again, I can't download anything or see any 3D printable parts because of this error. Anyone else having this error? Or is the sync library button working for you?

I got the files on my Desktop. Win7 Home Premium 64bit. Not on my laptop Win7 Pro (It has the 32 version but should have 64. I'm probably going to put 8 on it now that I notice my 7Pro is only 32bit). So Win7HomePremium64 OK. Win7Pro32 no go. (Same max array size error btw)

I think my school laptop may also only be 32bit. Maybe that's the real problem?

Hope this helps.

I am using Win8 (64bits) and everything works just fine... I have been able to download the whole library without any problem.

I think it is the first real advantage I see in Win8 over win7 since I have installed it:D

It is working for me now! I installed .NET Framework 4.5 the newest one from Microsoft and it works now! Everyone try doing the same first and see if that fixes the issue.

#25  
Ah ha, I have 4.0 on this (32bit W7 Ultimate).
Desktop has 4.0 (W7 64 bit)
Laptop (Win8) has 4.5

.net 4.5 download

Will update once .net is updated:)

Will everyone please stop downloading .NET 4.5 its slowing down my download :)

ok finished now hehe
#28  
Haha so now that I got that issue fixed I can move onto the actual issues of how do you configure and print the robot?

I can see how you can manually build your own robot with parts from the library but isn't there an option to just use the pre-built design, only setting up your custom servo ports?

I am trying to make JD the bi-pedal robot in the design area. I just dragged out all JD parts except for the arms. I am not sure how to make the arms? Isn't there a way to just select a pre-built robot to print?

Oh i just read DJ's post, look like they might be under examples...

#31  
ok well i cant get the .NET Framework 4.5 to install at all and i did every thing it said to do but no go so i guess its just another thing i need to buy a new computer for:(

soon i will be compleatly left behind in all the fun lol

You'll still be able to buy from the store dude, JD and hexapod will be for sale from what I gather. No need to 3d print or modify files. And I am assuming your PC isn't going to be the best for making your own 3d files.
#33  
Not sure what .net my desktop is at but my laptop is 4.0 so, I'm going to delete the files then try again after 4.5 installs. I'll post results.

I click on EZ-Bits, Library, Sync now which I presume is correct?

.NET 4.5 didn't work for me I get this message

Downloading library index...
Error downloading from EZ-Cloud: There was no endpoint listening at http://www.ez-robot.com/Community/Revolution/WSRevolution.asmx that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.

Might be something to do with webpage naming

This web service is using http://tempuri.org/ as its default namespace.

Recommendation: Change the default namespace before the XML Web service is made public.
Each XML Web service needs a unique namespace in order for client applications to distinguish it from other services on the Web. http://tempuri.org/ is available for XML Web services that are under development, but published XML Web services should use a more permanent namespace.

And .net 4.5 is what was needed. Working perfect now.

It also solved the cloud problem I was having and mentioned earlier:)
