Hi,
 
I just upgraded aMule from 2.0.2 to 2.0.3, compiled using wxGTK/wxGTK-devel/wxBase 2.4 on Fedora 3, however the start up time for aMule becomes really long, when starting from terminal, it stays at "Checking if there's an instance already running...." for a good 20 minutes, is this normal with 2.0.3?

TIA


Here's my amule.conf

remove the stale ~/.aMule/muleconn file

[wuischke]

No it's not normal.
Some general remarks: Please upgrade to wxGTK 2.6, I'ld recommend to use [patched] 2.62 or 2.7 (CVS).
After doing this build aMule CVS, which is nearly the same like the soon-to-be-released 2.10 and try again,
Edit: Or do what Kry says. He knows what he's talking about.

[Kry]

Or do both...

[Solarisnerd]

Done all that but aMule still takes its time to load.

muleconn removed before starting, but it gets created again during the loading process.
I also notice from top, memory usuage of aMule started at 7% then gradually grows to 20~21%, does this have anything to do with the issue?

[Kry]

Takes it time, or never loads?

[skolnick]

how long it takes to start? on my system it takes about aminute, with 250 partial downloads.

Regards.

[Solarisnerd]

It takes its time to load,
Started aMule from terminal over VNC, placed the icon and main aMule screen in TWM desktop, went down stairs to make a cup of coffee(from beans, not instant coffee), went to garage with the coffee for a smoke, came back, it's still loading...

Not the fastest machine in the world, AMD XP 2000, 512MB SDRAM, 10K RPM SCSI disks, normally I have 25~40 partial downloads and 50 files to upload, I don't think aMule will rehash all of them when ever I restart it, would it?

[Solarisnerd]

Removing everything under .aMule apart from
Incoming
Temp
amule.conf
staticservers.dat

Now loads up in seconds, I still don't know why and if someone can shine some light, would be great.

Thanks for everyone's advices and time.

May be problems with *.met (know, clients...)files?
