276168 - Downloaded .bin files do not arrive intact

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Download & File Handling, defect)

Description

[RayK]

MacOS X 10.2.8

I got the dialogue box asking if I wanted to execute it and I chose the Save To Disk choice.

When I looked on disk, I found a 500K file (it was supposed to be much bigger than that since it is 
a daily build for Firefox.) When I decompressed it, the disk image that it contained was empty.

Used Safari to download it and get the latest build just fine.

Similar to Bugzilla Bug 264250 

For instance, could not download latest build using:

Firefox V1.0 Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 
Firefox/1.0

-or-

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20041221 Firefox/1.0+

-or-

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20041227

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
