| Hi all,
first of all thank you for this great software. Very
usefull!!!
But I have a problem with HTTrack (I use 3.32-2 (+swf)) and
I don't know if it is just a question of configuration or
if HTTrack has not implement such a feature.
I want to mirror parts (only the Helicoptes for Flight
Simulator 2004) of the links in the URL:
<http://www.simviation.com/sitemap.html>
So I use this URL as the WebAddress.
I configured following rules:
1) -*
2) +*fs2004helicopters*
3) +*.zip +*.tar +*.tgz +*.gz +*.rar +*.z +*.exe
4) +www.simviation.com/files/1helicopters/*
5) +63.217.28.218/1helicopters/*
6) +www.simviation.com/pageimages/*
Explanation:
1) As there are so many links on the Startpage (a Sitemap)
above I decided to exclude everything first.
2) Include all links with fs2004helicopters in the filename
3) Include all archives and binaries I need
4-6) Include only links from this path
Other settings:
Limits:
"Max connections/seconds = 1"
Flow Control:
As the FTP-Site 63.217.28.218 only accept maximum 2
connections I set
"Number of connections=1" (with 2 I still got errors)
"KeepAlive=0" (So that the connection should be closed
after a download)
"Retry=2"
Links:
Attempt to detect all links => checked
Spider (I think this is default):
Accept Cookies => checked
Parse java files => checked
Update hack => checked
Log files, Index, Cache:
Create Log files => checked
Make an index => checked
So these settings are mirroring exact what I want.
But sometimes I got errors.
The log have some entries:
Error 1:
14:32:04 Error: "Unexpected write error" (-1) at
link <ftp://63.217.28.218/1helicopters/xxxxxx.zip> (from
www.simviation.com/fs2004helicopters2.htm)
What does this "Unexpected write error" mean? I have no
problems with my harddisk and I have enough space free.
Error 2:
14:32:14 Error: "Bad user name: Sorry, the maximum
number of clients (2) from your host are already
connected." (-1) at link
<ftp://63.217.28.218/1helicopters/xxxx.zip> (from
www.simviation.com/fs2004helicopters2.htm)
But that is why I limit the maximum number of connections
to 1! There is no other application running which is
connected to this URL. Could that be that the connection is
not closed correctly sometimes or that HTTrack allready
opens the next connection if the first is not closed?
Error 3:
15:01:08 Error: "" (0) at link
<ftp://63.217.28.218/1helicopters/x1x1x1x1.zip> (from
www.simviation.com/fs2004helicopters4.htm)
What does this error message tells me?
All these errors are normaly no major errors if the update
feature of HTTrack would work correctly. So if I start the
mirroring again (using the action "*Update existing
download") then all links on the ftp-site (which are only
binaries) will be mirrored again. It doesn't matter if this
file was allready downloaded. Binaries which are linked to
the http-Site are not downloaded again.
In this context I found out that HTTrack couldn't retrieve
the filesize if it download a file from the ftp-site
<ftp://63.217.28.218>.
Could that be the reason why HTTrack isn't able to validate
the local file with the one of the server and that is why
it started the download again?That would be astonishing because if I download
the link
using other applications (ex. Internet Explorer or Download
Accelerator Plus) these applications have no problem to
find out the size of the files.
Last question (which would be the solution for me): Is
there a setting in HTTrack to prevent it from downloading
binaries again if the filename allready exist on the local
machine (doesn't matter if the file has the wrong size.)?
Thank you for support and thank you if you read all this to
this end.
Regards,
Manfred
PS: Yes I use the search Option in the forum but I only
found some entries which belong to similar problems (not
with ftp):
