Title: 0-size file error
Post by: Defkon1 on September 28, 2008, 02:38:49 PM

hi all,

i've downloaded some files with amule 2.2.1 on kubuntu 8.10, but when they reached 100% they blocked on status "Finishing". A couple of days after, i've relaunched amule and found them stopped at  0%; giving'em the resume command, amule reports me following errors:

and so on. Launching the preview on the file (with vlc), the video appears complete and not corrupted...

how can i fix these files?

thanks in advance

Probably there's no space left in your incoming directory /media/sda2/Downloads .
Check if (and make sure that) there's enough free space left to copy the completed files there. Then delete the empty files aMule already created in the incoming directory, start aMule and resume the files.

you were right, i was running out of space...

i've deleted some old stuff, deleted the zero-size files but i can't resume files now, that option is no more available in the contextual menu...

there is a way to force resuming?

try creating the 0-sized files again. they should be the .part files created by amule. Or you could try deleting the downloads from amule and adding them again.

Regards.

Um - I think his part files are still there. It's his incoming folder that ran full, not his temp folder. Right ?
Deleting them would destroy them.
Defkon1, are your part/met files still there ? What size do they have ?

they are all in Temp folder, and they have them correct sizes...

Now - what is their status / colour ? And how long did you wait after starting aMule ? Maybe aMule simply started hashing them, and you aborted it.
