When I try to download any POI I get a message saying file is invalid or corrupted. All countries, all formats, single catagory or multiple.
What am I doing wrong as I have sucessfully downloaded them before on same computer

Have you tried with the "Show Link" checkbox selected next to the download button and keep the number of selections down to around 20 for any single download (including subcategories) - Mike

I had the same problem last night when trying the newly updated Accommodation category files. I wondered if they were being updated at that moment, so I tried again this afternoon and all was well.

Would there be a possibility of allowing the Database Admins a window of time where downloads are suspended whilst the Db is updated?

Just a thought Smile

It's constantly updated and that work does not impede the delivery system.
