Upon first try out of UE 1.18 I downloaded a startrek posting. (found and DL all the segments and the pars.) The posted segments were 49mb in size as posted but the resulting mess (correct more or less in total size) is incomprehensible. ( files 640kb? in size) without a clue if they can be put back together or how to do that). The program did create a couple of 16mb MS Access files which when launched tells me why the hell are you asking me what these are (so to speak). Before starting, I printed out all the instructions I could find. (using a MPC, running WinXP Home SP 2)
Any ideas? Kimpton
Mangled Downloads in UE 1.18
Re: Mangled Downloads in UE 1.18
You have been looking at the UE database directory. You need to save the files through UE before you can do anything with them. Make sure to use 'Download & save attachments' or open the UE group where the headers are located and right-click and choose 'Save' - either method will work. 'Download & save' will not download articles again if they are already downloaded. UE will bypass the download part and go directly to save the files.
don't try to use directly database directories with obscure files (you can delete most of them and it will be handled correctly after restart but it is another story).
ue is also text capable newsreader so it can keep article sources as well, given yenc it is not much overhead in space either.
the rest as is explained in the previous post.
there is link to tutorial from the ue site, you can get a general idea there too.
