Question

I am learning development of Android Apps and trying to download Android studio which is 824MB from http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=studio in Chrome and I am leading to the Unknown network error at the end of download. when I see download manager in chrome, notice the following entry

android-studio-bundle-135.1641136.exeUnknown network error. https://dl.google.com/dl/android/studio/install/1.0.1/android-studio-bundle-135.1641136.exe

I tried couple of times , but no luck in downloading successfully.

Please show me pointers on this.

Thanks in Advance.

Answer 1

I had same problem with Android Studio v2 when trying to download from the main site eg: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html from Ubuntu using Chrome or Firefox.

What worked for me (Ubuntu, both Chrome and Firefox) was to go to the builds site: http://tools.android.com/download/studio/builds and pick the build you are after or for V2 Stable, you can go straight here:http://tools.android.com/download/studio/builds/2-0

Answer 2

This is a known bug in Chrome see https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=66339 or https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=78241

Note that the workaround is to use IE or Firefox to download the file.

Answer 3

Upon file completed download, Chrome will try to rename temp download file to proper file name. This is where it fails. So Just rename the downloaded file extension to ".exe" and run it. I installed it successfully.

Answer 4

i also faced the same problem.. then downloaded using IE.
