Upon arrival, the file has the correct size, but it does not have the correct content: md5sum does not match, tar says 'crc error' about 3/4 through. This experiment was repeated twice with the same results. Note that download passed through a RH 7.1 machine set up as natting packetfilter in front of an ADSL. Download time: ~4h. Download of file using FTP (Pure-FTP server + SafeTP encryptor) works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Prepare a large file 2. Download with lynx 3. Compute md5sum Actual Results: Files don't match Expected Results: Files should match Additional info:
Hello, I try to reproduce your problem, but I was not succesful (I use the last version of lynx - lynx-2.8.5-27.1). Could you please try to reproduce this problem with this version of lynx and attach a testcase here. Thank you.
Hi. This is a very old bug, I can try to reproduce on the Red Hat 9.0 (2.4.20-20.9) with lynx-2.8.5-11. I think that was the original system that exhibited the problem (I wanted to scratch the machine in the next couple of weeks) Do you think it is still worthwhile reproduce it after 2 years? Best regards -- David
I think it is not necessary. I tested the last vesion of lynx and it seems fine. Red Hat 9.0 is quite outdated so there could be some problem which is fixed now. I'm closing this bug now. If you find some test case please reopen this bug and attach it. Thanks.
