Downloads from Plugin Store

Downloads from the Plugin Store are not working for me. For example...
"This site can’t be reached
The web page at
http://www.family-historian.co.uk/wp-co ... lua&id=117 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address."

It seems to be all Plugin downloads.
It is not the server itself because the
View Source link is working Ok.
The only difference is the
sourceview.php versus
download.php.
i.e. the following is Ok :-
http://www.family-historian.co.uk/wp-co ... lua&id=117
Try submitting a problem report.

I am also experiencing the same issue (and have been for several hours that I am aware of). I get the error message as described, or the 404 page not found error.
I have also submitted a ticket.
This is happening to me in the Chrome browser, but I have just discovered a workaround (after seeing Mike's reply)....open the page in Microsoft Edge, then right-click on the "Download Plugin" button, and use 'Save As' to save the plugin file. Run as usual.
Cheers

Chris, the only reason that works is that the
Plugin Store Downloads are now working OK as normal.
i.e.
Calico Pie have fixed the problem.
Using the example from earlier the download URL is now :-
http://www.family-historian.co.uk/force ... lua&id=117
instead of :-
http://www.family-historian.co.uk/wp-co ... lua&id=117
