I may be wrong, but it looks like, that the storage provider has changed his file handling policy.

There is no direct download possible.

wget produce the same message like pkg

We got over our Storj quota for this month in 5 days. I do not know what happen but looks like some people are trying to download over 5 TB a day.

Thanks for your response.

Would this explain why I can't download/ install packages since last night?

Yes, it is likely.

vimanuelt Thanks.

I'm getting this too. First it was 'Forbidden' as above but now I'm getting 'Requested range was not delivered by the server'.
Any ideas when this might get fixed because we're sort of stuck until it does.

Until the main pkg site is back up you might consider using one of the mirror sites. More details on this and what brought down the main site is detailed here:

I got a new server with SoYouStart/OVH.

I will point https://pkg.ghostbsd.org to it and Storj to https://pkg.storj.ghostbsd.org.

Also, we have https://pkg.bg.ghostbsd.org coming. It is provided IncogNetLLC.

Thanks. Also saw the announcement in the other thread and swapped to the Canadian mirror.
