It seems like the URL https://download.wowdl.net/downloadFiles/Clients/WoW%20Classic%201.14.2.42597%20All%20Languages.rar does not work anymore.
Can you try to download it manually and place the file into this folder:
M:\Dernloois\winterspring-data\WoW 1.14.2 Everlook.partial-download
And also rename it to WoW 1.14.2 Everlook.partial-download mind that there is no .rar ending
