Errors
« on: April 22, 2012, 10:18:21 PM »

Hi,

I had about 10 errors.

These are two that I tried again a few days later and still got the error.

They are .zip files that when I convert to .cbr, give the message "there are no zip files to display"

Tried that, Narf, didn't work.

But I did discover what the problem was.

I unzipped the file, but instead of individual jpg's of pages, there was one .cbr file sitting in there, so I just extracted it.

Not used to that happening.

Okay, that worked and was the case for most of the files I had trouble with.

But, there were two that had a "corrupt" message - unzipping them showed a handful of jpgs, then an error message.

That was me. I spotted them as they hadn't extracted for the viewer. Found and fixed about 10 other scans the same zip with a cbr/cbz inside

I wonder if we may have more such problem files like these on the site Mark.  DCM has been fixing a ton of files the last several months and a number of the files we have here now came from DCM before they started the fix-ups.

No Joe we are actually in good shape. In fact really good shape! I am right on the home run now. Basically if we have a thumbnail it is a readable archive. The final test is number of archives database thinks it has = number of downloads on disk = number of thumbnails ... and I guess we are in a single figure variance between each of them probably count them on one hand :)
