Comment 22 for bug 381318

I've tried this patch after several months of hellanzb just hanging, repeating downloading the same article over and over. The behaviour I'm seeing in 9.10 with this patch is now the same article is only redownloaded if the previous attempt failed (although I dont see any errors on the console, I just see partial download of .rar files). It then just sits there, and doesn't pick up the next nzb file.

If I restart hellanzb it will resume downloading the unsuccessful attempt (renamed_0 appended) and may succeed. Then it moves to the next .nzb. The behaviour is better, but not like it used to be in 9.04 or earlier. At best its burning up more bandwidth than necessary with failed attempts to download a .nzb and obviously then hangs/waits for something indefinitely until I kick it again (Ctrl-C restart it).

Let me know if there are logs I can collect, its fairly consistently hanging up when it thinks its downloaded an .nzb file and doesn't move to the next even though it lists the ones its found in daemon.queue.
