[not a bug] Remotely hosted downloads not working

[Vox]

Hi,

 

===========DESCRIPTION===========

When clicking on a download that was previously working as a remotely hosted link the following error message is displayed:

 

File not found. Please contact support.

 

=========STEPS TO REPLICATE=========

When trying to edit the link or add a new remotely hosted download following the instructions in the docs ( http://docs.whmcs.com/Support_Center) the following error message is displayed:

 

Invalid Filename

The filename you enter must be for a file stored locally within the downloads directory.

 

 

=======ADDITIONAL INFORMATION======

Tried selecting all 3 file types (ZIP, Executable and PDF) and received the same error each time.

 

Version 6.0.2
