Ok, sorry! I was not aware of this fact! Thought the files were hostet
on the webserver.

Concerning the Windows build: I should try to setup a development
environment on Windows as well as currently I'm not able to build
anything on windows and therefor can not test anything there as well.

Yes, perhaps you could send me a short overview about what is needed to
setup a development environment on Windows? (tools needed) Then I will
try to setup the build there as well. This way I could at least try to
support you with the windows builds as well.

Bye,

Ole
