LostinTime 2004-12-18 04:21:32 | It seems that the samples that are currently posted causes DPAD to crash. File seems to be corrupted. |
Stephen Brooks 2004-12-19 11:45:21 | They _were_ corrupted a while ago, but now I've fixed it, so when I look at http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/samplefiles/chicanelinacb90_100.txt it is fine. Try deleting your corrupted samples and running Muon1 again so it'll redownload the new ones. |
LostinTime 2004-12-20 22:41:21 | Stephen, I've always manually enter the samples. Your posted rar archives are fine and will work. HOWEVER: Its the text file that has problems. If you copy a sample and add to the results.dat it crashes DPAD. Something you are doing differently is causing the problemn. Normally, I just use the text file and not the rars. But I can use the rars with no problem. Just extra steps in my case. |
Dave Peachey 2004-12-21 04:04:48 | LiT/Stephen, I've noticed the same problem and have correlated it with the comment raised by Meloentje in this thread. My resolution to this problem is manual intervention as follows: - open the "text" file in a new browser window - "file/save as" a text file - edit the text file in Notepad to take out extra space at the end of all the lines (not sure if this is a problem but ...) - check for instances where the data crosses more than a couple of lines (some times the second line is split onto a third line!) - add back in the missing - save the text file and insert data into the results.dat file I'd also comment that Norton Personal Firewall 2003 doesn't, as a default, allow me to read the contents of the manually downloaded text files - they download as html pages NOT as text files! - so I have to disable NPF whilst I open and save the file. All-in-all a longwinded resolution to an issue which has only appeared with Stephen's reworking of his web site structure! Cheers Dave EDIT (14:24 GMT): Oddy enough, I noticed that this mornings (10:37 GMT) text file seems to work if you "right mouse click/save as" and change the file extension to .txt from .htm - the missing atributes are included in the text file version although they don't appear on-screen in the .html! |
Stephen Brooks 2004-12-21 12:05:23 | Looks like it's transmitting the file as text but giving it the MIME type of HTML. I didn't think it would cause any problems but I guess I'll have to get the script to transmit the correct type for the extension it's serving. |
