Lists are empty? [resolved]

Post by greg »

I recently installed a new version of Firefox and was trying to set up EasyList in ABP, and noticed the list downloads were failing, with the error message of "Failed, not a valid filters list."

I tried to load the list myself in Firefox, and saw that the URLs (like http://easylist.adblockplus.org/adblock_rick752.txt ) are just returning an empty page. This happens in every browser on my system.

Just wanted to let someone know!

I see it just fine try viewing it through a proxy, most likely it will load then.

It just worked fine, of course, as soon as I post something in the forum.

I love EasyList and couldn't imagine browsing the web without it.

I noticed that when I updated the EasyList & EasyElement earlier, the server said there was an error with both uploads ... and when I checked the server, both filters had zero info in them. I couldn't do anything but write to Wladimir who was obviously busy releasing ABP 0.7.5.4 (could have been related)

But the server error stopped after a while and I was able to re-upload the lists. So all seems to be fine now.
