Hi,

I installed amule a couple of days ago. I am running Gentoo, do not worry I installed amule according to the instructions I found on this web site.
Everything is working almost fine (I'll come to this later), but among the files I am downloading is a file which is larger than 2GB. For that file amule is driving crazy. First of all it can not keep a constant d/l speed and secondly (this is the most important) the remaining size does not decrease. I have about 700 MB to d/l (the total size of the file is 2.7GB) and when it stops d/l the remaining size is 731MB and when it starts d/l the remaining size is 747MB and it keeps decreasing.
Now, for example it stopped d/l and the remaining size is 743.40MB.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Can't wait

If you can't wait then use the CVS version

I was thinking of doing that, but since it is only a couple of days .... Well, maybe I will do that :rolleyes:

Ok, I downloaded the cvs version (amule-cvs-20040322). Since it needs libcrypto, I emerged (remember I run Gentoo) crypto++. This is the correct file.

configure  run without any problem
and then make gave the following error
g++  -g     -o amulecmd  amulecmd-TextClient.o amulecmd-MD5Sum.o amulecmd-ECSocket.o -L/home/vasilis/Install/amule//lib -pthread -lwx_base-2.4 -L/usr/lib -lcurl -lz -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lcryptopp
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lcryptopp

What is this lcryptopp file?
I downloaded the crypto++ source file and compile it myself. After the compilation was over, I could not find "lcryptopp "

Do I need to do any trick?

Thank you

I found what was wrong!!!

[deltaHF]

tell it for other users then

[Master]

I installed amule cvs 20040322.

When it started it told me that several *.met files might be corrupted. The second time I started amule it did not say anything about it.

I was observing the remaining size for the file that is greater than 2GB. It was fluctuating. Two minutes after I started amule and while I was download with 50KB the remaining size is 736.28MB and it stopped d/l!!!

Also, if I right click on the file and select "show file details" it says that only 15% is available. When in fact I have ~73% and the progress bar has a dark blue color.

I must be doing something wrong....

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thank you

You are not going to like it

Is Gentoo related....
For some reason, the developers decided to name the libraries crypto++ instead of cryptopp

What can i say

[Master]

The remaining size varies in the range 736-743 MB. When it drops below 736 it goes back to 743

[deltaHF]

well.. close amule, delete your known.met file and let amule rehash all the files

[Master]

It keeps saying that 15% of the file is available. Before I closed amule, 736MB were left to be downloaded, when I opened it, 743MB are left.
