Missing Files

Postby mbake5 » Sun Mar 13, 2011 4:59 pm

I open a nzb file and all of the files associated with it appear in my "downloads" tab. After the download is complete, I expand the list and see that all files have downloaded. I then proceed to the folder that contains the downloaded files and several consecutive rar files (for instance .r21-.r25) are missing. I have seen this bug appear several times (4 or 5 times) on 6.0b5. It doesn't happen every time but it happens quite a bit.

I 'think' I may have encountered this issue, but have not managed to track down the pattern. The one thing I have noticed that the files affected seem to incompletes (although I have not verified this is the only case). I wonder if there can be a situation in which incomplete files can be left in memory and not flushed out to disk when they should be (such a when exiting Newsbin).

Hi,

Issue remains the same: incomplete files disappear when downloaded

"assemble incomplete" works sometimes (rarely)

I'll try with MemCacheLimit=0 ...

Have a nice day

Incompletes aren't saved across restarts so, you need to assemble them before you exit or they'll re-download.

I tried with MemCacheLimit=0, only change was that in place series of 5 or 6 "missing" downloaded files (which were consecutive, one after another), I had just 1.
After program restart, the same "missing" file downloaded perfectly, from the same server.

Temporary returned to the B4.

Just update, B6 looks good after 2 days and several reboots and continuations, no discarded and "missing" files.

I am glad that hickup was short-lived.
