watchlist using headers downloads incompletes

Postby Bexley » Wed Aug 31, 2016 6:25 am

Hi, I changed over some internet watch lists to use header downloads. While the watchlist internet downloads seems to be on complete posts, the header downloads attempt download before the post is complete. It seems to eventually succeed by brute force since the incompletes fail, and then it attempts again - do I need to do something to change the behavior, why is it not checking the complete flag? Regards
PS looking at it happening right now.

6.72 won't add partial downloads to the download list. Might want to try it.
