Has anyone else seen WS FTP Pro 8 (Version 8.0
2003.05.23) give bad stats on an ftp resume in the Transfer Manager
window? Here is the scenario:
I went to a site that had a couple of large
(600MB) files I wanted to download. I clicked both files and then
clicked transfer to my local machine. In the Transfer Manager window, I
see the download job with a + next to it. When I expand the tree, I see
the two files being transferred. The Transferred column shows the total of
the two files that has been transferred (adding up as it goes) followed by the
two individual transfer amounts. The Size column shows the total of
the two files' sizes (1200MB) followed by the two individual file sizes
(600MB each). The % done bar is as expected. So far so
good.
I click pause on the top line in the transfer
manager to pause the whole download job (both files are just over 50%
done). Both files stop transferring and the play buttons appear. I
come back later to continue the download and I click play on the job.
I am prompted to log into the site and then prompted to overwrite or resume - I
choose Resume All.
Now the Transfer Manager window shows the
Transferred amount correctly (650MB total - 325MB each file). But, the
Size column shows the amount *left to transfer for the resume* (275MB each file,
550MB total). In other words, the Size column is less than half of what
the actual file size is. Now my % done bar is 100% for both files because
it seems to compare Size to Transferred and it will look like I am transferring
many more bytes (1200MB total) than the file size (550MB total).
Also, I now have no idea how far along I am in the download without remembering
the original file sizes and comparing that number to the amount transferred
(that number is correct).
Anyone else seen this? Is there a
fix/work-around/patch for this? It is only an annoyance, not broken
functionality (other than the functionality of a progress screen). If
there is not a fix for this now, anyone know when to expect an
update?
