I can't download minGW packages [duplicate] - c++

I'm trying to set up MinGW. I have downloaded the latest installer, which installs mingw-get but this utility fails to fetch the packages and gives the following kind of messages:
mingw-get: * ERROR * Get package: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/gcc-4.5.2-1-mingw32-lic.tar.lzma?download: download failed
There is no firewall running. Anyone had the same problem?
Thanks to all.

Try with "Administrator rights" . It helped me.

This problem has happened to me too and was due to - I guess - temporary problems to either the network or sourgeforge itself. I suggest retrying after a while.

This problem comes from the network. I can't download it by using my fiber broadband microtalk communication bit it still downloading by using my jio mobile network.

Try installing it from osdn.net
Here's the link: https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/releases/
It's same as sourceforge but was able to connect and download
worked for me and my friends!

I am stucked.
I am relative neewbie in Linux with some previous exp. in php programming.
I want write a script with my raspi pi 3, qt, and databases.
I am unable to get database connection work.
all tutorials are counting either with cppconn, libmysqlclient(-dev), mysql.h.
Non of that I am able to get on to my Raspi.
I have MariaDB installed and configured, I also installed mysql, and mysql-common.
And that where I stucked.
Unable to build the script in C++, because mysql.h is missing.
Can you please help me out of this situation?
Thank you!
As #Martin Bonner said - https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-cpp/en/connector-cpp-installation-source.html this was solution for my problem. I installed this package on Linux with apt-get install lmysqlcppconn.
I also make sure that all source are in /usr/include/

Error installing uptodate aws sdk for windows

I tried to update my AWSSDK for windows with one released 1 DEC to test a new Lambda with C#.
But I got error message like this.
Product: AWS Tools for Windows -- Error 1722.
There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.
A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
Thanks for the report, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused.
As noted by others, for this install we changed how we install the toolkit and for some users this is causing install fails that we have not managed yet to reproduce in-house and are still trying to find root cause for.
Feel free to post your install log here (if you have it), or on the AWS forum thread posted above where we are tracking the problem and gathering data from affected users.
What version(s) of Visual Studio do you have installed, and was this an upgrade install from a previous version?
We released version 1.11.1.4 of the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio to resolve the installation problems. You can download the latest version from https://aws.amazon.com/visualstudio/

Does Installer Need an Internet Connection?

I have a Windows machine that I want to install Python (2.7) on.
That machine is not connected to the internet and never will be.
Hence the question: If I download the thing that the python site
calls the installer and copy it to that machine, will that be
enough to install python? Or does the installer need internet
access, like so many "installers" these days?
(Yes, I could just try it. Got a very slow connection...)
Anyone happens to know the answer to the same question regarding
wxpython that would be great.
Thanks.
If you mean python installer for windows, yes it's enough and installer doesn't need internet connection, but if you want to install another modules through pip you will need internet connection.

Google chrome, native client support and development

I would like to write a small C++ app and run it on chrome using the native client API.
I have a few questions though:
1) I compiled the examples on Ubuntu and ran the code on firefox but can't run it on chrome (using version 5.0.342.7 beta)
Do I need to install something? An extension/plugin?
2) I can't find a single online application I could run? Links anyone, I want to see the power of this thing without having to compile the code locally.
Thanks for your help,
-hbt
PS:
I don't know what's the policy with asking multiple questions. If it's a problem, let me know and I will create multiple threads.
More details:
Already read doc at
http://code.google.com/p/nativeclient/wiki/NativeClientInGoogleChrome
Running with --enable-nac from the command line and I have this error
.mozilla/plugins/sel_ldr_bin.trace: cannot dynamically load executable
I already built and installed sel_ldr
./scons -c --mode=opt-linux sel_ldr
./scons -c --mode=nacl
./scons run_all_tests
./scons --mode=opt-linux npGoogleNaClPlugin
./scons --verbose firefox_install
Works in firefox! not in chrome
Double checked about:plugins in chrome
Native Client Plugin is enabled and pointing to
.mozilla/plugins/libnpGoogleNaClPlugin.so
Please advise
Thanks
Did you launch Chromium with the following parameter --enable-nac.
1) Firefox is not supported now(maybe in the future it will be supported again). It seems that you are not using the latest SDK.
2) You need to use newer Chrome browser(yes Chrome is running nativeclient module now as well). In Ubuntu, you may use the google repository for testing
deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free main
deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ testing non-free main
and the package of the chrome in dev channel is named 'google-chrome-unstable'. For more information of google linux repository, refer to: www.google.com/linuxrepositories/
3) Native Client's SDK is separated into nativeclient-sdk. It's easy to use. Here is the guide: http://code.google.com/p/nativeclient-sdk/wiki/HowTo_GetStarted
Have Fun!

Problems installing django-1.0.2 on Windows XP

I'm a Windows user. I tried to install django-1.0.2 final through the command prompt and it kept giving me an error in line 70:
The error occured where u"SVN"... It couldn't get past that line.
What to do in order to be able to install django-1.0.2?
You do not have SubVersion installed on your machine. You are trying to synchronize from the current production stream via SubVersion, which is a source control system, which you do not have installed.
Easiest solution - download the latest official version per the instructions at http://www.djangoproject.com/download/
Please install a client for the Subversion Version Control System. Since you are on Windows, you can also use TortoiseSVN which is an easy to use SVN client for Windows.
Alternately, you can download the tarball of Django 1.0.2 directly.
And please don't SHOUT on Internet forums. We hear you :)
If I recall correctly, installing TortoiseSVN won't help you there cause Django's code tries to use SVN's command line version.
Install a command-line SVN like:
Slik SVN
CollabNet SVN Command line
What version of python are you using? I had the same error when installing on top of python 3.2 instead of 2.7. Django only works with 2.7.
