aMule will not remember sorting
« on: September 28, 2008, 06:56:42 PM »

Hi!

This one is an easy one, but it's annoying nonetheless. It just happens my aMule will no longer remember the colum I used to sort the transfers window last time (shared files table is OK, however). How did this happen? it happened this way: I used SVN version of aMule. When aMule 2.2.2 went out, I installed it, but since 2.2.2 has no part number column like SVN does, something happened there with the config file (I guess). Now, I am using SVN from Sept 22 2008, and i think it didn't like something in the config because it will always sort ascending by filename on startup. I know I should delete some entries in the amule.conf file to fix it, but I don't know which ones.

Thanks!

Config entry syntax has changed between the 2.2.x and 2.3.x (SVN) versions. SVN version will (should) correctly transfer all information into its own format, but that doesn't work the other way - 2.2.2 will consider column information (size, sorting)  incorrect and revert to default. However, it should save the information in the old format and read back correctly - if this does not happen, then it's really a bug.

Then I guess there is a bug somewhere in this code, because when I went from SVN to 2.2.2 (Don't remember the SVN date...but it had the partfile column) everything worked fine, but now, going from 2.2.2 to SVN sept 22 2008, it will not remember the sorting column. Most probably 2.2.2 messed the file somehow and SVN is unable to understand it. If you want, I can attach my amule.conf so you can study it.

Regards.

Please paste the output of 'grep Table ~/.aMule/amule.conf' here. (With the right path to the config file, of course.)

For example, Shared Filew window, sorted by Share ratio, descending:
SVN: TableOrderingShared=R:1:0
2.2.2: TableOrderingShared=8 4096,

Bad timing.  ;)

Everything has been shut down, noone's working, even electricity is out. I'm writing this post by the candle-light ;)

Thanks suredman. I understand there's no SVN, and changes can't be commited. But is there something wrong in the settings I posted? how can I fix my amule?

Thanks!

Your config shows that the transfers window (downloads) should be sorted by progress, descending, and then by name, ascending.

I'll check the code.
