  • Seems to still have QWK/QWKE issues

    From bcw142@21:1/145 to A39 Pi version on Monday, July 30, 2018 14:05:44
    Seems like the Released A39 for Pi still has some QWK/QWKE
    issues (sometimes):

    Did download with Zmodem 8K built in, but haven't seen that fail. So some random issue with QWK/QWKE on Pi still (or between QWK/QWKE and Multimail V.49 Like before it's random, it works sometimes and not others. Just like before.

    That looks like ma corrupt .ZIP. Sure you didn't have a MPI.qwk already in your download area, then go to download it again with NetRunner or most terminal software? On 90+% of terminal software, zmodem will auto resume, and if there's already a file of the same name there, it simply downloads anything longer than that. End result: a corrupt zip archive.

    This is one reason I like SyncTerm, if I do that accidentally, SyncTerm will ask what I want to do, and not simply assume I'm resuming a failed download. :)

    So in short, this looks more like user error than a bug in Mystic. :)


    ... The one question you've always wanted clarified. What did she say?

    It's only on the Pi version of Mystic. Works on Windows10, Linux64, Linux32, but not a Pi.
