Paradox Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) Hey all... Been a while... I'm invoking the inetget command to start a download of a file. It will begin transfer, and normally doesn't have an issue. I want to put some kind of error handling into my script so that if the file transfer ends prematurely, or if @inetgetbytesread=-1 I want to retry the download from where it left off. This is what I have so far:inetget($ftp, $rarfilename , 1, 1) ; Begin downloading file from main server. guictrlsetdata($status3, "Total Size: " & $ftpsize) ;Display file size as read by a $ftpsize=inetgetsize($ftp) earlier. guictrlsetdata($status4, "Total Transferred : " & @InetGetBytesRead) ;Display amount read thus far. While @InetGetActive ; While downloading is still active. Select case @inetgetbytesread <> -1 guictrlsetdata($status4, "Total Transferred : " & @InetGetBytesRead) Sleep(500) case @inetgetbytesread = -1 guictrlsetdata($status4, "Error downloading. Retrying...") _filewritelog($logfile, "Error downloading file " & $rarfilename & " from main server. Retrying download.") ;Can I just reuse the "inetget($ftp, $rarfilename , 1, 1)" from earlier to restart the download? ;If so, will it pick up where it left off? I'm using FileZilla as my FTP server, is continuing a failed ;download something that has to be setup on there? I'm not really sure about that one which is ;why I ask. Endselect WendAs always, any help would be greatly appreciated. Edited November 30, 2006 by Paradox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of this (from the help file pertaining to the InetGet command: reload [optional] 0 = (default) Get the file from local cache if available 1 = Forces a reload from the remote site Would the 0 imply that it's going to attempt to reload from the existing cache before continuing? The meaning of the syntax is rather perplexing, and if this DOES work, that I would suggest that the help file be updated to clarify that this is the behavior it will take. I suppose that the only thing I can do it test it somehow to find out and post the results back up here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valuater Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 that would be a good test.. I have seen that however, i have not tested the "reload" option thats why i put in this InetGet("abort") and looped to start the inetget() over again let me know what you find out 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not looking good so far... Here's my code.... expandcollapse popup#include <guiconstants.au3> guicreate("FTP Test",400,250,-1,-1,-1,$WS_EX_TOPMOST) guisetbkcolor(0xffffff) Guisetfont(12, 400,0 ,"Courier") guictrlcreatelabel("Testing FTP download functions.", 2, 10) $status = guictrlcreatelabel("Current Status: ", 2, 45) $status2 = guictrlcreatelabel(" ", 2, 60) $status3 = guictrlcreatelabel(" ", 2, 77) $status4 = guictrlcreatelabel(" ", 2, 92) guisetstate(@sw_show) $file="ftp://xxxxx:xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.com/<filename>.exe" ;Sorry, commented out. It's not my server $ftpsize = inetgetsize($file) guictrlsetdata($status2, "File Size: " & $ftpsize & " bytes.") guictrlsetdata($status3, "Transfered: ") inetget($file, "xxxxxxxxxx.exe", 0, 1) while @InetGetActive guictrlsetdata($status4, @InetGetBytesRead) sleep(250) if @inetgetbytesread > ($ftpsize/2) Then inetget("abort") ExitLoop EndIf wend guictrlsetdata($status3, "Aborting download to attempt retry...") sleep(5000) guictrlsetdata($status3, "Attemping download retry...") inetget($file, "xxxxxxxxxx.exe", 0, 1) guictrlsetdata($status3, "Transferred:") while @InetGetActive guictrlsetdata($status4, @InetGetBytesRead) sleep(250) wend Exit First I left the script to do it's thing... It downloads, then it aborts, then it downloads again. The problem is that when it aborts, i think it's closing the file. So, to test this theory, i stopped the script while it was downloading and then restarted... Same thing, still 0's out the file when the download starts. This means 1 of 2 things: 1. AutoIT's command for downloading from FTP doesn't support resuming a file transfer. or 2. FileZilla Server doesn't support resuming a download to clients. I can research only one of these (#2), but I'm pretty certain that it's going to wind up being a combined issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valuater Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 maybe we can get some "Developer" input on this one... as to how Autoit is supposed to handle the "reload" 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradox Posted December 1, 2006 Author Share Posted December 1, 2006 Please have a look at http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=33856 and search for wget... Thanks dabus (and all) for your help on this. I'm taking a look at that wget now, and from what I saw in that forum, it looks like this would be ideal for my script.Thanks again!
