A little tip for those of you who (like me) have experienced the
frustration of seeing a partially downloaded set up again with slightly
different details, trying to resume from partials and getting error
messages, trying to resume from search and LO! It starts from the
beginning again and ignores files already saved from the original
partially completed download.
Have a look at the names of the folders & files in Temp. You'll
find that the "new" folders from the download have slightly different
names and that's why Furthur thinks it's a new set and ignores your old
info. If you stop the new download at this point, copy the files from the
old folders into the new folders and RENAME the .tpm files from the old
Temp folder in the same style as the new .tpm file just started and erase
the new .tpm fiile it should work. NB ignore the old furthur.config file
and keep the new one. Then rename the old folder in Downloads with the
completed tracks (if any) to the same new name as the new folder in Temp.
Then restart your download from Search and your completed tracks should
show in the downloads window and the download SHOULD start from the point
at which it was previously halted instead of going back to the
beginning.
I just tried this with NY1999-00-00 and managed to salvage the 3
completed tracks I had downloaded last week!
Please feel free to e-mail me if you are confused by the above!
