Download fails with Skydrive JPG file

Tim Brassey 11 years ago • updated by martinbeeby 11 years ago • 1

If I add this JPG to the static content editor, it appears to display OK, but the App gets an error when trying to download.  Remove the link and download is fine.

Perhaps the length of the URL or that it is HTTPS??

Skydrive is not image hosting for apps... When you link to the image it responds with a web interface. I guess that's why the app is failing. The solution is to not host your images on skydrive. You can upload them to zip app and host them from there. Right clicking them in the upload tool will give you the URL.
