Each time I try to download any application using Application manager on N900, I receive message: "Downloading 'application name' failed. Try again?". I press "Yes" and keep getting the same message for million times. The same message appears for every application I try to download. I don't know what the problem is. My application manager use to work fine earlier... Can anyone help?

I am getting "Error 503 Service Unavailable" when i try to download the packages manually from maemo.org/packages/.
I think that is a good idea If we create a torrent file with the packages ready, just waiting for "dpkg -i *.deb" command

This was happening to me too earlier today, about six hours ago or so.

Thank you so much alessandru03! Disabling those 3 catalogs solved my problem. Everything work as before. I was thinking that something is from with my app manager. Thanks again.

It's being worked on. Check this thread (post #14.)
Also, it seems you can change the distribution field in the catalog details from "fremantle" to "fremantle-1.3" for extras-testing and extras-devel. I do not know if this works or is recommended.
