upload re-cycling

i tried to post this in the other thread pertaining to this same problem, but that thread has been closed.

problem:

when i try and upload the software goes through a "pre-transfer", as indicated in the transfer qeue, which seems to run in real-time and takes about as long as a real transfer. then the real transfer kicks in, and i can see that it has created a ".mad" file and the actual transfer item. when the transfer of that item is complete it does a "post-transfer" and a hash check then ... instead of going on to the next item in the qeue it appears to erase the item just uploaded and starts the same process all over again with the same item.

i have went through the settings but i cannot seem to find where the problem may reside. can you please review my transfer qeue log and advise?

i am using windows xp home, broadband cable connection, no routers.

thanks in advance,

viggaz

ps - this is the log i got from doing a "save-as" from the transfer qeue -- is this the correct log file?

please advise, thx in advance.

Does the server temper the file you are uploading because the MD5 has is different?

Does the server temper the file you are uploading because the MD5 has is different?

... umm, you're gonna have to put that in layman's terms, i don't even know what that means. keep in mind i only ever use ftp for basic back and forth transferring, and do not know anything about it's functionality and specifics beyond that.

Hello ..

I just talked to the developer of the FTP server software (raidenftpd) and he told me that the software had some bugs with md5 checksums. These bugs have been fixed in the latest version of raidenftpd.

Changelog
http://www.raidenftpd.com/whatsnew.txt
fixed: xmd5 bug, in some cases it displays wrong md5 value

Conclusion: Please contact the server administrator and ask him to upgrade to the latest version of raidenftpd and the problems should be gone.

Regards,
Mat
