[Package Issue]: HulubuluSoftware.AdvancedRenamer version 4.08 error: 0x8a15006d

[hms54]

Please confirm these before moving forward

• I have searched for my issue and not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved issue.
• I have not been informed if the issue is resolved in a preview version of the winget client.

Category of the issue

Installation issue.

Brief description of your issue

Attempts to install or update current installation fail with:
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
0x8a15006d : A required service is busy or unavailable. Try again later.

I believe this happens because the download site only allows one download attempt, then locks out additional download attempts for a period of time. (Not sure what the timeout is, but I had to wait a day to attempt a second download.)

Steps to reproduce

It fails with or without an existing installation of Advanced Renamer, but the cleanest case of reproducing this failure is to:

1. Uninstall existing installations of Advanced Renamer.
2. Search for HulubuluSorftware.AdvancedRenamer in Discover Packages.
3. Attempt to install as Administrator.

Actual behavior

Installation fails with Winget error message: 0x8a15006d : A required service is busy or unavailable. Try again later.

Expected behavior

Expected the package to install properly.

Hi @hms54,

Is the issue still occurring?

[elreymon]

Yes. It's happening to me right now.
I haven't find any service running that may cause this problem.

When trying to Download de .exe manually I get an error. Probably this is the cause because the error is in the Download Module.

[hms54]

Confirmed it is still happening with me as well. 1. Package version 4.08 was installed, so I successfully uninstalled using: winget uninstall --purge -e HulubuluSoftware.AdvancedRenamer 2. Attempted to install using: winget install --id "HulubuluSoftware.AdvancedRenamer" --exact --source winget --accept-source-agreements --disable-interactivity --silent --accept-package-agreements --force 3. Installation failed to download the installation file and threw an error: C:\Users\hms>winget install --id "HulubuluSoftware.AdvancedRenamer" --exact --source winget --accept-source-agreements --disable-interactivity --silent --accept-package-agreements --force Found Advanced Renamer [HulubuluSoftware.AdvancedRenamer] Version 4.08 This application is licensed to you by its owner.

Downloading https://www.advancedrenamer.com/down/win/advanced_renamer_setup_4_08.exe 0.00 B / 11.0 MB An unexpected error occurred while executing the command: 0x8a15006d : A required service is busy or unavailable. Try again later. Observations: 1. There is along delay before the error message appears and it doesn't look like anything gets downloaded. 2. Manual attempts to download from the AdvancedRenamer.com site will succeed only once in an unspecified period of time. 3. Future attempts during this lockout period result in a web page message: Error 1015 You are being rate limited. The owner of this website has banned you temporarily from accessing this website. Assessment: I believe Winget error 0x8a15006d is saying the download site (service) is unavailable. Plan: I'm not sure if Winget makes more than one attempt to access the installation file; but if not, the only remedy I can think of would be to ask the download site owner to change the lockout policy.

So if proxy is caching the download on first access, you would not experience being blocked by the web site ban on subsequent attempts, right? -=Howard

WinGet defaults to download the installer by using DeliveryOptimization, which downloads files chunk by chunk and generates lots of requests within seconds. You can change to another method through the WinGet settings.

[hms54]

Interesting. Is there a command line option to set the download method? -=Howard

Try winget settings. It will launch your default editor automatically and open a JSON configuration file. Configure the following settings.

// IMPORTANT: The configuration DOES NOT support comments, here's for tips only.
{
  "network": {
    // Switch this to value "wininet"
    "downloader": "wininet"
  }
}

Unfortunately no. You need to paste the setting snippet into the configuration file.

[Dragon1573]

WinGet defaults to download the installer by using DeliveryOptimization, which downloads files chunk by chunk and generates lots of requests within seconds.

I also uses Motrix for downloading those installer file manually. It based on a modified version of Aria2, which limitations rise up to 64 threads at most (original one limits to 16 at most).

When I click the download URL on the page, Motrix will catch this up and copy the UA information from my Microsoft Edge instance. Most of the time Motrix will not be blocked by the server, and with 64 threads all connected I can take full use of my purchased bandwidth at home (around 1000Mbps).

---

Edit: It might be caused that the Delivery Optimization engine is flagged as a third party downloader and may be harm to the server. While Motrix will copy UA info from the browser, server will treat them as parallel download action by browser's built-in downloader and will not block it.
