Remaining file size increased????
« on: July 24, 2005, 10:42:49 PM »
Yesterday I looked at aMule and it was saying 1 MB is left to complete the download. Today it is saying 18.52 MB is remained. It is as if aMule deleted some download parts???

It's a feature, not a bug ! (Redmond Tradmark)

Hi,

There is some algoritm in amule to check if a chunck is valid or corrupted. Sometimes, amule have to re-download part of file because of currupted data.

The amount you give : aprox. 18 Mo is the size of 2 chuncks (each one usually is a bit more than 9 Mo). So you better check in the logs window if there is messages about corrupted chunck.

Or this maybe a real bug...

Hope this will help.

Regards.

Check the log in the Servers dialog.  If a part was corrupted, then there should be an entry about this in the log.
