Error Decompressing File?

Post by Kisa » 2006-02-20 06:30

When my download finished this error came.
It's only happened once, but I'd really like to know what exactly this means.

Thanks

Disable Safe and Compressed transfers, and try again. :)

Was that the exact error message? If it is a problem with safe and compressed transfers, the error message will be different. The message you mentioned sounds more like a WinZIP or WinRAR message.

Well, I wasn't downloading a WinRAR or zip file.

Anyway, after I disabled the safe and compressed transfers the error turned into 'TTH root inconsistency' (or something along those lines). The file is downloaded 100% but is still in the queue.

Sigh.

Both error messages are (potentially) symptoms of corruption along your network path. Check that all your cabling is tight and not bent/crimped/worn.

What DC++ version are you running?

Got it from an Icelandic hub site a while ago. It's closed now though.

Well, definitely check out the network angle.

I don't know what DC++ version that is based on, so one of my suggestions goes out the window. I'm also moving this post, because it may not even be a problem with the DC++ code inside the mod you're using.
