Hi Phoenix, thanks for replying.
Can you give me a recipe to reproduce the bug? If this involves certain file names, you can send it to me in a private message
Well, at least for me, i can reproduce it everytime i run amule (with every cvs of amule since and including 2.0.3), and it doesnt happen in a concrete and/or specific moment but always. How to do it in other machines? no idea.
By the way, there is a known issue. After a few days working, aMule 2.0.3 does not download new files. To check that we are talking about the same issue, please tell me the value of these fields AT THE MOMENT OF FAILURE:
Statistics->Connections->Active Connections (estimate)
Statistics->Clients->Has Sockets: (only in debug enabled versions of aMule)
Preferences->Connections->Max Connections
This is a totally separate issue mate as anyone who had actually read the whole thread would now. The problem we are pointing out here is that amule doesnt find sources for new added files so they never get downloaded, doesnt matter whether amule has been running for 2 minutes, 2 days or 2 months, BUT if you restart amule, it will find sources for those files and download them as usual.
And, regarding your statement about caring, yes, we all care, but we also have to deal with our real lives. If you can give us a fully reproducible way to generate the bug I bet it will be fixed ASAP. On the other hand, vague statements tend to be ignored, because the devs don't have the resourses to keep trying to reproduce your bug by trial and error.
In my point of view we are just users with no technical knowledge so i think is you people who should tell us what to do and look for not to make this a 'vague statement', you have to help us help you.
Also, if you look carefully, you will find that stefanero has more than one star below his name (actualy, he has four!), and that means he is part of aMule team, and he made lots of replies. So rest assured, we all read the forums, and we all discuss every issue.
Fine, but i after his replys, i have tried to contribute with -what i think are- more and new details and thats when ive had no response. My point is that if you ask people to help you track down bugs, when they do so they deserve at least a reply, even if its a negative one. Because it would be easier for me and others to just wait until the problem gets resolved with the help of someone else and dont get involved and bothered, but we, on the other hand, take the time to post and be willing to do beta testing.
Please do not take me wrong, i do not demand the bug to get fixed, i just ask for a reply to let me know that the effort i take to try to find it and report it its not time wasted.
And before all, im aware of your selfless hard work and do apreciate it a lot, and if you found my latest post offensive in any way i do apologize since it wasnt, at all, in that way.
Regards.
