Error downloading file for modpack

[Balula_Whale]

Hello!

 

I've created a custom modpack, however every time i try and play it through the Technic launcher, it says

 

Error downloading file for the following pack (my mod pack)

Failed to download https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&confirm=m1oq&id=0B8UBE2vEvBU7ZmM2bDhYS0dka2c

Please consult the modpack author

 

This happens if i use any file sharing site with a direct link, whether it be google drive, or copy.com

 

The link to download is https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&confirm=m1oq&id=0B8UBE2vEvBU7ZmM2bDhYS0dka2c

And it is a direct link, also i have it set so that anyone can view and download it

 

i have no idea whats wrong

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Edit: Here is my log from today

Because it isnt a direct download link. The URL needs to be direct. Meaning if you visit the url in your browser, it should load nothing and either automatically download the file or ask to download the file.

[Balula_Whale]

Thats odd, earlier today that link would directly download it in the broswer...

It seems that it doesnt work anymore
