Download Station downloads HTML file instead of archive

Post by calande » Wed Aug 30, 2023 6:44 am

Hello,

I installed Download Station on my QNAP NAS, and tried to download files. I pasted a download URL, and Download Station downloaded the HTML file of the web page instead of downloading the RAR archive... Anyone else having this kind of problem? How to make it work? I'm trying to download from RapidGator.
Thank you.

Yes..Many file hosters will be bound to a session cookie or similar when downloading files.

So a download manger will not work and only download the website with the auth script
