Problems with Getbhavcopy downloader (Hemen Kapadia software)

#1
I am a relatively new to trading. So, please bear with me if I happen to ask very elementary questions.

I was using an earlier version of Mr. Kapadia's software and things were working well. Then I had to reinstall my XP and all other softwares. I found out that this earlier version I was using is no more supported and that there was a newer version that I have to use.

This newer version gives me a lot of problems. Firstly, there is this problem with "unhandled exceptin"; secondly, although my dataone adsl gives me a download speed of well over 170 KB/second, this particular software is extremely slow in downloading (I have tried this out during all times of day and night); also, the indices never download (error 404 or something like that);

Can anybody help me here? Apart from this and the Bhavyait, are there other trusted freeware for downloading historical data?

Are zipped files of historical data available from, say, 2000 to the present day?

thanks; please help a beginner.

Hi,

Which version are you currently using? As of now version 1.4.1 is the latest.

Second, since you reinstalled XP can you please ensure the correct version of .Net i.e. 2.0 framework is being used?

All the download link are availble at download getbhavcopy.

Regards,
Hemen.

Ive had similar problems a few times before...... maybe a prob with the NSE server..... dunno..... their server seems a bit freaky to me...... has problems many times...:p... maybe try the next day...... solves the problem for me.....:D
Iam unable to dowmload the data since 4th Nov. I tried downloading it every 1hr, still not working. I think its something to do with web address ..."www.nseindia.com" or "www.nse-india.com". Iam not sure... If the experts could help, it would be really nice.

Hi,

Are you able to reach www.nseindia.com and www.nse-india.com from your browser?

From the 404 error i do not see this to be an issue with your network but an issue with NSE, but if this was such a major issue then i believe it would have been a very hot thread on my Getbhavcopy support forum. May be you can post your question there and get help too.

For now are you behind a proxy or any thing ??? are you able to access nseindia and nse-india.com sites ???

Share some more technical details and we will see what is the issue...Mostly i feel it is related to NSE, but what is strange is why only you are getting it for such a long time.
