[Solved] Error downloading custom modpack

[SilverSilix]

I have created an uploaded my custom modpack to Google Drive and create a direct download link.

I have already setup my modpack's page and configured everything

When trying to download the pack from the launcher, I get the following error:

I know there is something wrong with the link, but I don't know what. It's a direct link and the file itself seems fine. I've been troubleshooting all day and I have no idea what to do next. I have created another modpack before and it never had this issue.

If you follow the link you would notice that it reports a 404 error. You need a permanent direct link (i.e. as soon as you click it you get a file)

That's strange. The link didn't give a 404 when I posted it, but now it is. I think the problem may have been the host; I'll try switching. Can you recommend a good file host that offers direct downloads?

Both copy.com and dropbox work fine. (with the appropriate URL changes)

copy.com: add "?download=1" to any public share URL

dropbox: replace "www" in the URL with "dl" and remove the trailing "?" including everything after it.

Thanks you. I switched the file over to Dropbox and changed the URL and everything is working fine now.
