Re: Search brings back same results for anything?

Thanks for noticing that, I was running an updated server version to check it with the next release. I've restarted the previous server version, the newer one was only running for a few hours. Later: I've restarted everything again with the updated code, the only problem was if there were no results...

Re: Show auto collections setting not stored on restart

Whether auto collections are shown is governed by Edit menu->Properties->Newsgroups, the "Collections" combo box for the selected entry. Only the sort order may have the "Persist" setting, the rest are set to be fixed in Properties, otherwise it would be too confusing. Check mayb...

Re: Icons are occasionally blank

It is related to the relatively recently added code to suppress flicker (so it is only in v7), there are two aspects, one for the newsgroup views, another for the task manager article view, at first I wrote the part for the newsgroup view code, then when adopting the code to do the same in the task ...

Re: Is search down?

It should work now, header download was suspended as no headers were coming to have an option to change server settings to prevent unnecessary newsgroup resets and excessive header download later, but it is fast to bring them up-to-date.

Re: Is search down?

The router failed, it has been replaced a few hours ago, the server pings the website with the new ip, so if nothing extreme has been posted headers should be up to date.

The search service will be accessible when the incoming ports are configured, hopefully it won't take long.

Re: UE Quits before finishing all tasks

The problem was exactly as described above, I forgot to adjust that option when adding asynchronous unpack. I've added 3 lines of code to prevent the program from exit when asynchronous unpack is running and because Microsoft changed something and Defender doesn't bog me any more with PUA submission...

Re: UE Quits before finishing all tasks

Maybe I didn't check that option against the asynchronous unpack, if so, it was like that since May then. But this is so insignificant, since the option is rarely used. The effect would be the same as if to close the program while unpack tasks are still running and the tasks themselves are not lost....

Release history v7.x

See the Handling Spotnet files at the UE website for details. - It is now possible to use the search service with only the...

Re: Download and Save immediately with password?

Judging by the post date it was a gap in my availability, just noticed the post without replies. Is it still relevant? There is an option in edit menu->properties->detect passworded rar files, if to uncheck it the download will continue (so it won't stop with the first part) and only unrar will fail...

Re: UnRAR progress bar inaccurate

Finally figured it out after encountering the issue when unraring a multipart file containing a large number of small files. The calculate file size function is called too early in the unrar source code (not sure if it is modified or the original code). Yes, it might be only for unrar 5 format, the ...

Release history v6.x

Release history v7.x - v6.1.1 - - The compact binary import newsgroup type has been updated to remember the posted newsgroups, as this wasn't added at first to keep the code manageable internally. - When the Import as collection option was enabled in Edit menu->Properties->Search/Import in rare cas...

Re: Slow startup

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't look at this forum section. Check if you see a lot of files in edit menu->bodies, if you purge or delete what is not needed it should start faster then. I don't remember exactly, maybe it should state it is loading bodies when it happens, if no tasks, loading tasks...

Re: Imported headers disappear after close and re-open

I recalled the reasoning was so deleted headers won't accumulate indefinitely with the import group size growing until it starts loading slowly, as there is no an automatic purging headers after save option and to see deleted headers you need to check corresponding checkbox, and when something is im...

Re: Search service - Connection unexpectedly closed by the serve

Search is back to full retention, I'll double check the starlink server is set up properly for restart, since it doesn't have public IP address and rdp to it is not straightforward.
