(SM+Linux)FlashGot Selection not downloading whole selection

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
04/29/2012 11:04 AM 179,184 remastersys-gui_3.0.2-1_amd64.deb
04/29/2012 11:04 AM 157,270 remastersys-gui_3.0.2-1_i386.deb
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".)

(This is on Linux, so) /tmp/flashgot.[PROFILEFOLDERNAME]/flashgot.fgt.done ?
That file does not exist...

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

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?

So no, you don't have dTa.

So Wget it is.

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

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.

This didn't get it working either..

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?

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?
