Title: Astraweb corrupt files
Post by: vvex on July 06, 2009, 10:02:48 pm

Did anyone on Astraweb got 90% of today's releases (06 July) files,corrupt?
I swiched d/l hdd's and from SSL to normal with the same result (d/l-ed same files on both hdd's and got same amount of missing parts with Quickpar).
So i'm thinking it might be that files are corrupt on Astraweb's servers?...

i depends what nzb you are using

Astra switched to "forced server sektor ids" for most of the parts meaning they change when posting and premade nzb are useless for ~90% ( probably soon 100%) of the ids.

if you get the files from a searchengine they are fine.

No Astra is having some problems right now. Probably related to their stupid decision to enforce server side msgIDs

I don't quite follow your explanations but i gathered that they have some problems.
Now i c that in the last hour all files came down ok,so it's prolly over.
Using NZBMatrix as nzb source.
TY both for the reply :)
