certain filename format not being shared
« on: June 20, 2004, 08:57:57 AM »
i can't get files with this sort of filename to be shared: text_here-text_here-text-text_here.ext

they were once named "normally" (i.e. "text here.ext") and they shared fine. i then renamed them using the format above and now they don't appear in the shared files list. yes, i tried reloading the file list, and yes, i double checked that the directories the files are in were checked in the "directories" tab in preferences

i think it's just all files, and whenever you change the directory settings amule doesn't update the known.met, so if you move a file you pretty much can't "refresh" your listings to share it. or maybe i'm completely wrong  8)

Yeah, same for me since i compiled rc3.
What i found strange with is that i first thought it was all "file.ogm" that where not taken. Then i found the new "file.ogm" i was sharing did appear in aMule. So i don't get it.

deltaHF tip did find ! But it flew away the "Transferred data" & "priority" i had for those files. Some of them for months & > 10 Go uploaded (got a 40 Kb Up connection), which is *not* nice.
Hope next release comes without this bug !
