InetGet only downloads part of the file and results in @error=0

[jdefockert]

Hi all,

I am trying to write a script that downloads a zip file and it used to work in the past, but now trying to download the zip file from the website with INETGET only results in a partially downloaded file and an @error = 0.

If I paste the same URL in my browser (Firefox and Internet Explorer) the file downloads without a problem.

But if I try to download the file with InetGet then that results in an @error =0.

If I try to download a file from another website I have no problems.

Any idea what could cause this?

Thanks in advance or your reply!

----code----------

; Download the ZIP file

InetGet ('http://bbclone.de/dist/bbclone-latest.zip','c:\bbtemp\bbclone.zip',1,0)

;Sleep(2000)

If @error = 0 Then

MsgBox(0,'Error','File from BBClone website was not properly dowloaded. Please try again')

Exit

EndIf

While @InetGetActive
  TrayTip("Downloading", "Bytes = " & @InetGetBytesRead, 10, 16)

I get 0 when trying the InetGetSize example direct from the help file.

...If @error = 0 Then...

As best I can tell, @error is not set by InetGet.

Not that this really helps, but you can run this code:

$size1 = InetGetSize('http://bbclone.de/dist/bbclone-latest.zip')
MsgBox(0, "InetGetSize Failure: Returns 0 and sets @error to 1.",_
          "$size1 = " & $size1 & @CRLF & _
          "@error = " & @error)

$InetGet_Return1 = InetGet('http://bbclone.de/dist/bbclone-latest.zip', 'c:\temp\bbclone.zip', 1, 0)
MsgBox(0, "InetGet Failure: Returns 0. ",_
          "$size1 = " & $size1 & @CRLF & _
          "$InetGet_Return1 = " & $InetGet_Return1 & @CRLF & _
          "@error is not set.")

$size2 = InetGetSize('http://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free/update/u7iavi156n9.bin')
MsgBox(0, "InetGetSize Failure: Returns 0 and sets @error to 1.",_
          "$size2 = " & $size2 & @CRLF & _
          "@error = " & @error)

$InetGet_Return2 = InetGet('http://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free/update/u7iavi156n9.bin', 'c:\temp\u7iavi156n9.bin', 1, 0)
MsgBox(0, "InetGet Failure: Returns 0. ",_
          "From the first download" & @CRLF & _
          "$size1 = " & $size1 & @CRLF & _
          "$InetGet_Return1 = " & $InetGet_Return1 & @CRLF & @CRLF & _
          "From the second download" & @CRLF & _
          "$size2 = " & $size2 & @CRLF & _
          "$InetGet_Return2 = " & $InetGet_Return2 & @CRLF & _
          "@error is not set.")
