Hi All,
It appears that PDF 24 is not downloading or creating an error. I could be wrong though. The publisher does take approx 16 minutes which I would assume is including the 15 minute time out. However, when I try to download from https://stx.pdf24.org/products/pdf-creator/download/pdf24-creator-10.7.0.msi it is successful. It was downloading successfully 2 days ago. Should I add it to the content repo?
Any ideas?

perhaps by republishing a few times that their CDN is throttling my IP. It looks like it is downloading very slow from the server. Can I either raise the time limit to 30 minutes before timeout or use the local repo?
You can change the timeout, I did just test in a lab and it took roughly 30 seconds to download so some throttling might be happening.
To change the timeout follow this KB article: https://patchmypc.com/advanced-configurations-available-using-the-registry-for-patch-my-pcs-publishing-service#topic5 (https://patchmypc.com/advanced-configurations-available-using-the-registry-for-patch-my-pcs-publishing-service#topic5)
4 minute support reply time?!?! Terrible customer service ;)
You guys are amazing!
If it wasn't a holiday it might have been a bit faster! If you run into issues don't hesitate to reach out!
Thank you!
Is it possible to default to local for non licensed installs? That way I can mess around with this deployment without harassing their CDN.
Yes in the Advanced section for local content you can specify to check locally before reaching out.
