Par2 failed - number of repair blocks incorrect
« on: October 17, 2007, 09:03:37 pm »
During the download, ABZ correctly identified all broken files as well as the number of blocks missing for each file. (I verified the output in the PAR2 tab with Quickpar and got the same results. See also the log below.) In the end, however, ABZ downloaded one repair block too few. As a result, the repair failed. Once I manually unpaused another repair block, the repair/unrar process finished without problems.

Could the problem have occurred because the very last file in the download queue had a block missing? Maybe this last missing block was not taken into account when calculating the number of required repair blocks.

Using version 0.25.6.

Par2 failed - number of repair blocks incorrect

What par2.exe version? Internal or par2 multicore? What file exactly was one block short (alt.binz par2 tab/quickpar vs par2.exe console dump in log) Also whole subject for that file is needed.

I'm using version 0.25.6. I haven't copied the multicore par2 file in the misc-folder since I upgraded. So I guess it was still the 'old' internal version. The file date of the par2.exe in the misc folder is February 5, 2007. I was under the wrong impression that the multicore version would be included starting with this version.

I will download and check again. I will let you know whether the problem also occurs with the multicore version.

Ok, I found the post. What file EXACTLY was a mismatch? (100mb files :) )

Sorry, I missed an inconsistency. Comparing the log and the output in the par2 tab showed that the file with the following header was in fact one block short:

Code: [Select]
(4338) [#alt.binaries.games.xbox360@efnet] Shrek.The.Third.NTSC.XBOX360-APATHY [42/68] - "apathy-st3.part40.rar" yEnc

In the par2 tab, it said 34/36 blocks available. However, in the log and using QuickPar, the same file is marked as only having 33/36 blocks available.

Note: I'm using Astranews. Hopefully, the file has the same problems on your server. ;)

Logs are really useful, if you know how to read them.  :oops:   I guess I was using the multicore par 2 version, after all:

If you need any further information or if I can test something for you, please let me know.

No, that's old internal par2.exe

Internal = 233472 bytes

Multicore = 184320 bytes

BTW are you sure PAR2 tab identifies 34 blocks but par2.exe AND Quickpar only 33? If that's the case that's a new case. First time that alt.binz has recognized one block more then Quickpar.

OK. I just re-downloaded the mentioned file, definitely having the multicore par2 version in the misc folder (184'320 bytes).

Result: In the par2 tab, alt.binz says 34/36 blocks available. Checking the same file with QuickPar, however, says only 33/36 blocks available. So, yes indeed, alt.binz seems to think there is one block more than QuickPar.

If the file in question is not corrupted on your server, I can re-post it for you (zipped, in order to make sure you have the exact same file).

No, it is 2 bytes short. Famous Diablo bug :)

Hm, "Diablo Bug". That sounds ominous. But hopefully resolvable. ;)

The Diablo Bug drops whole lines, but the file was posted to Giganews, and Giganews does not run Diablo software.  These files were damaged by the Newsmangler yenc-vanilla bug, which occasionally drops the first byte of an article.  In part40.rar, segments (113/131) and (131/131) were damaged by the yenc-vanilla encoder.  Segment 131 is supposed to be 160k but it is 159,999 bytes.

Source block size = 2,856,076
Article size = 768,000
1 block consists of 3.718849 articles

I thought that also, but one of the developers of Diablo idles @#alt.binz@EFnet and says one byte drop is Diablos fault under heavy load.

No way to reproduce it here. I'll need that file.

The developers of Diablo discussed the bug on their mailing list which is archived, and they spoke in terms of whole lines dropped.  Heavy load, highspeed posts and running Diablo on Linux instead of FreeBSD is thought to unleash the bug.
