| Bug :
I have noticed this in both ver 3.23 and 3.30 : windoze does
not allow the creation of a directory ending in either a
space or a fullstop, so if httrack then tries to download a
site where such directories exist, it cannot save any files
as it cannot create the directories required.
Update Query :
Why is httrack so slow to update a site? It appears it will
only query one html page at a time to check if it is changed
(even though I have allowed it to use 5), however, since I
have a site I want to mirror with over 18000 html pages,
this can take a couple of days or more on my dialup. Which
brings me to...
Update Bugs :
- The site I mirror updates its pages every day adding and
changing several links. However, because the update of the
site is so slow with httrack, I have found that httrack will
download pictures based on the site without having
downloaded the corresponding html page (something to do with
checking the page one day vs downloading on another?). How
it does this I don't know.
- Also, as I have to stop httrack before it finishes, it
will lose the fact that I have already downloaded many
graphic files (the hts-cache\new.* files will no longer have
the information about them), and will then redownload them
again when I continue the interrupted download, now
unnecessarily. Can it not check if the file exists with
correct date and size on the hd, then not download it again?
Thanks
