Cant download pockey query because its no longer available?

I am having trouble downloading the new pocket query with 1000 caches limit.

I have a pocket query using the 1000 cache limit to be created on fridays.

Yesterday I got an email notification that the file was ready for download on the pocket query webpage.

I clicked on the link to download the file and I get the error saying that the file is no longer available for download and it is removed from the list of queries to download.

So I changed the pocket query to also be created on saturdays thinking that perhaps it was something that I did.

Again today I got the email notification, go to the pocket queries page, click on the link and same thing, error message, the file is no longer available for download.

The 500cache limit pocket query files download fine so the problem is no on my end.

Anyone else has this problem too?

There are two things that seem to cause this

 

- If you change the name of the pq (and possibly other things about the pq) after it has generated, it seems to "break" the link to the pq it already generated

 

- If the pq was set to delete after running, it won't be available the next day for downloading, even though everything says 7 days

Thanks for the sugestions but in my case they are both negative, I did not change the PQ yesterday or today (unless you count adding saturday to the generation day, but that was after I failed to get the file anyway) and I dont have it set to delete after running.

Are you using any kind of "download manager" programs? I've seen hints that those don't work right on the page, they are doing some wacky stuff to try and keep automated downloads from working.

Nope, I dont have one running although its possible that the hook is running underneath... another thing I thought off and I will check tomorrow is that I use OPERA as my main browser. I will try with IE to see if it works.
