(SM+Linux)FlashGot Selection not downloading whole selection

Post by barbaz »

EDIT
I haven't seen this again in using FlashGot so let's consider this resolved
/EDIT

SeaMonkey 2.29.1, FlashGot latest stable, browser built-in download manager

1) Go to http://www.remastersys.com/ubuntu/pool/ ... ersys-gtk/
2) Select the entire text of all 3 filenames, sizes, dates modified, starting with the lower right corner ("62.2K")
3) FlashGot Selection

... and remastersys-gtk_3.0.2-1_all.deb is zero bytes downloaded and shown as not visited. I have to manually save it.
Repeating the same steps on http://www.remastersys.com/ubuntu/pool/ ... ersys-gui/, the first two files are downloaded as zero bytes - but FlashGot Selection on those separately does download them correctly.

Why doesn't the mass download work in one go?

So a .deb is a .tar.gz.

All worked for me.
It's not unusual, & in this case too, for me to pick up an "odd" file, "unknown.gif", in addition to the wanted files.

In any case, all three came down, all the correct size, & verify correctly (7-zip t *.deb).

Same results using a download manager & Browser Built In.

Code: Select all

f9fbcaa5b5467ee15f5db7a8a7496cf1 *remastersys-gtk_3.0.2-1_all.deb
d45c0670e3a809a88d49f6b28ccbc1e8 *remastersys-gtk_3.0.3-1_all.deb
97f8b9f6e0d4ef50cb3b0e7e3645d6c8 *remastersys-gtk_3.0.4-1_all.deb


> Repeating the same steps

Again all worked as expected.

Code: Select all

01/10/2013  11:56 PM           179,256 remastersys-gui_3.0.3-1_amd64.deb
01/10/2013  11:56 PM           157,168 remastersys-gui_3.0.3-1_i386.deb
01/10/2013  11:56 PM           173,910 remastersys-gui_3.0.4-1_amd64.deb
01/10/2013  11:56 PM           152,238 remastersys-gui_3.0.4-1_i386.deb


See what %TMP%\flashgot.usename\flashgot.fgt.done shows.
Won't show sizes & wouldn't have anything to do with the actual downloads, but the wanted file path/names should be in there.

Well, I've reproduced with a similar index page on my local server, so testing should be easy and it's not likely to be caused by the server. In this case it's not the first two files but the two PDF files listed.
Again, Save Link Target As downloads the file correctly.

In the Error Console, this is the only thing that could possibly be related:

Code: Select all

No chrome package registered for chrome://dta-modules/content/support/filtermanager.js
(Oh, and actually it seems that computer has SeaMonkey 2.29.1 release, not "2.28.2-unofficial-1".)

According to server logs the 0-byte files were downloaded (or at least requested)

Is that DownThemAll?
If so, if you use Browser Built In or a different download manager?

OK, re-tried with latest development build - no difference.
Also re-tried in a clean profile with only FlashGot dev build, with same results.

What's DownThemAll?

Only other download manager I have AFAIK is Wget... and using that, this issue does not occur.

I don't know what to look for, so will send you log where downloads failed by PM

DownThemAll (or just dTa) is a powerful yet easy-to-use Mozilla Firefox extension that adds new advanced download capabilities to your browser.

I don't know what to look for either, just thought something of help might be in there?

> 2014-11-14T06:27:35.668Z Warning: download manager DTA not found

So no, you don't have dTa.

> 2014-11-14T06:27:35.669Z Default download manager set to Wget

So Wget it is.

> 2014-11-14T06:28:23.664Z Dispatch done in ms22037
> Total processing time: ms22059

I don't know what's "normal", but are these abnormally high?

> 2014-11-14T06:28:01.618Z Sorting again 10 links

And 10 links were found & sent to Wget.


Does Wget have logs?
Or can you run it with logs?

Code: Select all

Logging and input file:
  -o,  --output-file=FILE    log messages to FILE.
  -a,  --append-output=FILE  append messages to FILE.
  -d,  --debug               print lots of debugging information.
  -q,  --quiet               quiet (no output).
  -v,  --verbose             be verbose (this is the default).
  -nv, --no-verbose          turn off verboseness, without being quiet.
  -i,  --input-file=FILE     download URLs found in FILE.
  -F,  --force-html          treat input file as HTML.
  -B,  --base=URL            prepends URL to relative links in -F -i file.

That log was with the browser builtin download manager, where it didn't work...

I can run Wget with logs (--output-file=~/Documents/transfer.log), but again, this issue didn't occur when I used Wget...

So are you suggesting we look at Wget logs, or the FlashGot logs from using Wget with logging (or both)?

(I though the issue also occurred with Wget, but since it doesn't forget about the logs.)



FlashGot | Options | Downloads
Intercept all or File Extensions?
If File Extensions, set it to Intercept all & try again.

That could be one cause as to why not all files may be selected, but if they are being selected, should have no bearing on 0-byte files.


Alternatively, you can have File Extensions enabled, but then must disable Apply file extension filter to batch downloads too.

So I've talked with therube on IRC and it seems this is a Linux-specific issue (I'm on Lubuntu 14.04 64-bit) and a SeaMonkey-specific issue (works in Fx 31.2esr)...
Giorgio, any ideas?

Re: FlashGot Selection not downloading whole selection on Li

Linux 32-bit with SeaMonkey "2.28.2-unofficial-1" (like Fx 31.2): Only one out of two PDF files is unvisited (not both)
Linux 32-bit with SM 2.29.1: same as Linux64+SM2.29.1
Linux 32-bit with SM 2.30: Everything works

So are we to conclude this is a SeaMonkey bug that was fixed in 2.30, or a FlashGot bug that only affects SeaMonkey < 2.30 on Linux?
