Gtk-G users and developers:

I am constantly seeing upload requests for 'entire
files' failing in the last few versions of GTKG, using
the gtk-2 libs. It may also happen with gtk-1 libs,
but I do not have them built to test with, nor do I
want to use them instead of the gtk-2 versions at this
time. 

If you can, would you please watch for upload requests
that come in with the size set to the size of the
entire file (i.e., no 'chunk' size specified), and see
if you see them fail with an EOF indication in the
status column of the upload page? I think the software
believes that the size requested is larger than the
file, yet the size shown in the request is the same
size as the file (rounded to the size displayed on the
upload status page, of course).

I have mentioned this problem to Raphael, who was
unable to duplicate it. I'd like to know if others are
also seeing evidence of the problem. 

I seem to see this happen mostly with Bearshare
clients, but that may be due to the fact that most of
my requests come from Bearshare clients, or LimeWire
clients which never request an entire file. I believe
that I have also seen the problem with other gnutella
clients, but can't remember the exact client software
that caused the problem. 

I suspect that this is particular to non-GTKG clients,
and that GTKG will succeed with a request to other
GTKG servers, which may be why Raphael was unable to
duplicate the problem, as he used the same version of
GTKG on both the client and server end. 

Drop me a note if you find this problem occurring on
your system, and include the version number of your
software. I am currently running the new 0.93.2 stable
release from Jan. 5th, with the most recent fix for
the memory leak, and have verified that I see the
problem with this version. 

Thanks for any help you can give,
--Carl
