Android Question Downloadinf file FORBIDDEN

[AlpVir]

My app downloads an XML file to a certain URL but in the sub
Sub HC_ResponseError (Reason As String, StatusCode As Int, TaskId As Int)
of DownloadService.bas
"Reason" is equal to FORBIDDEN and StatusCode = 403.
It would seem a folder permissions problem but, using a PC and Firefox, you can normally download it to the same URL.
Why ?
How to overcome it ?

Why aren't you using OkHttpUtils2?

 

[AlpVir]

Using OkHttpUtils2 the error is as follows

httpjob_download (B4A line: 120)
req.InitializeGet(Link)

It may be that in the url there is one "~" ?
With "normal" url on other sites, there is no download problem, either with DownloadService or with OkHttpUtils2.

EDIT:
Not even using

URL="www.itcbonelli.gov.it/~orario/oraedt.xml"
    url2=su.EncodeUrl(URL, "UTF8")
    job.Download(url2)

This works:

Dim TestJ As HttpJob
    TestJ.Initialize("TestJob", Me)
    TestJ.Download("http://www.itcbonelli.gov.it/~orario/oraedt.xml")

Reason:

Download2 escapes the parameters, Download doesn't
