DC won't add folders to queue.xml

[KOJV]

Search for folder, download whole directory.

The folder is added to Queue.xml as Directory Target. Then DC downloads the source's file list. Then it removes the Directory Target, but never adds the files to Download Target; the target just vanishes from Queue.xml.

Thank you for helping!

It sounds like a bug, but I haven't seen it in my experiences. DC++ does need to get the file list to get the list of files in the directory. But they should (obviously) be added to the queue.

If you can narrow down how to reproduce it, feel free to enter a report in bugzilla.

It's quite easy actually, it's the same on any 0.674 installation I make.

Yes, but not on the 0.674 I have. That's the reproducibility part. Is it the same for all users? Are you sure the directory's contents are not showing up in your Download Queue? Does "Get file list" work from the search results? (It should take you to the directory that has the file you clicked on.)

[KOJV]

It's the same for me and my wife. I can't speak for other users.

Yes, I'm sure. I even hardscan the xml configuration. It doesn't add to the Queue.

I can get a File List and even Download from there, then the whole directory will add to the Queue. But it doesn't work if I choose to Download whole directory, right from the search list.

I've tried to reproduce this error too with version 0.674. I can't see the problem. I do exactly as the poster suggests. It works fine here. The files are downloaded.
I also check what is happening on Queue.xml with File Monitor (sysinternals) and it looks fine. (Looking at Queue.xml with an editor as well and it looks perfectly ok.
Is it really standard DC++ 0.674 you're talking about?. Could you check it yourself with File Monitor?

[KOJV]

Guitarm, no need for File Monitor as I can monitor Queue.xml myself, manually, and see that it first adds the folder as Directory Target but never transfers it to Download Target.

I reproduce this error both with RevConnect and "real" DC++ 0.674, on two machines.

Here's my DCPlusPlus.xml for reference, if there's something wrong with that. I didn't try reproducing the error on a clean install. My email was censored.

Actually, you're right and I'm wrong. And I'll gladly be the first one to admit it.
I've found a directory that when I try to download it, it seems to only download the filelist and nothing more. But I see a difference from your case: I don't see any writing in Queue.xml at all(?). I use WinTail to look at Queue.xml and it doesn't change a bit.

I tested the same thing in 0.691 and it behaves the same so I hope we can investigate this further and have some more people verifying this.

[Guitarm]

Although I didn't have much time testing it I noticed this: It happens to directories with a extended character in the path. In this case an ' ä '. I'm not sure if there's other cases.

[Xan1977]

There's a Playstation directory in his shares.

[Guitarm]

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm blind, thanks

[TheParanoidOne]

There's a Playstation directory in his shares.

Plus gamez and moviez. Anyone who ends things with a Z deserves to go straight to the dump.

[Guitarm]

The problem is interresting though. I've noticed that none of the alternatives of direct downloading directories from searchresult works. It only downloads the filelist and then nothing happens.

[ullner]

Oh, I so hope this is a NMDC-bug...
