Failed download files

During the download of a 6GB file to my Macbook Air the download failed and now it occupies about 4GB.. I can tell by the available diskspace the file or storage claim is stored/stuck somewhere. Point is that I can not locate the file: it is not in my download folder, nor shows in recent activities, nor in finder by name etc. How can I clean up my Macbook of these failed downloads?

If you have any idea what the file might be named, see if you can find the file using this program. If you go Finder/View/Show Path Bar, it will show you where it is located.

AIR Badge + RewriteRule fails - Downloaded file is not an air file

Hi everyone!
I'm not entirely sure my problem comes from RewriteRule but I've searched this forum for topics on corrupted AIR files and the Install Badge and tried almost every possible tip with no luck so I thought maybe my special issue comes from it...
Here we go:
I have a server-side script that builds AIR apps which are supposed to be installed (via an Install Badge). Those AIR apps are not stored at a public URL (for security reasons) but read (via PHP) when a specific URL is called. Let me give you an example (with fake paths) :
The server-side built AIR app is store at /srv/data/air/myApp.air
A RewriteRule redirects calls to http://www.my-server.com/air/999.air to http://www.my-server.com/air.php?id=999
The air.php uses the GET id to read the AIR file :
header("Pragma: public");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Cache-Control: private", false);
header("Content-Type: $mimeType");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name;" );
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($path));
readfile($path);
With $mimeType="application/vnd.adobe.air-application-installer-package+zip" and $name="999.air"...
When accessing the rewritten URL directly with a browser, everything is fine: the AIR file can be downloaded and installed as expected.
But! When using an Install Badge linking to that URL, I get the nasty "The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged" message...
And here's what's stored in .airappinstall.log:
Starting app install of http://(...)/9889.air
UI SWF load is complete
UI initialized
Downloading file to C:\Documents and Settings\Quentin\Local Settings\Temp\fla19D.tmp
Received HTTP Response Status event
Response URL is http://(...)/9889.air
Downloaded file is not an air file.
starting cleanup of temporary files
application installer exiting
Hum... And I'm stuck.
Thoughts?
I have multiple Install Badges in the same page, do you think this can break things?
I've try adding the AddType instruction in a .htaccess file but it didn't change a thing...
Thanks in advance!

OK, I've got news.
Bad news.
In fact I realized the appurl set in the Install badge is (obviously) not called directly but by a script located at http://adobe.com/apollo... So your my session is not available in the script that is called and that reads the actual AIR file. So I can't check wether the user requiring the file has the right to. At least, not the way I intended to do it...
I will keep you updated if I find something!

[Verifying Downloads] Java-Downloaded file not same filesize as on server

This is in the security forum, but really involves a few details:
1.) My program downloads files from a server
2.) I have precalculated hash md5 values and file sizes in a .cfg file in the server which is also downloaded
3.) The md5 is calculated of the downloaded files
4.) The filesize is checked and the md5s are checked
I have 4 client windows computers I've tested this on. It worked on 3. The fourth has a strange behavior: About every other file would have ~ 8 additional bytes in the filesize. I have no idea where those bytes are coming from, everytime it redownloads, same filesize, albeit 8 bytes too big. Therefore, the Md5 is screwed up.
Here's my downloading from server code:
OutputStream out = null;
          InputStream in = null;
          try {
               URLConnection dat = online.openConnection();
               local.getParentFile().mkdirs();
               out = new FileOutputStream(local);
               while(true){
                    try {
                         in = dat.getInputStream();
                         break;
                    } catch (ConnectException e){
                         System.err.println("Couldn't contact server!");
               byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
               int numRead;
               tsecago = System.nanoTime();
               readbytessecAgo = -1;
               while ((numRead = in.read(buffer)) != -1) {
                    out.write(buffer, 0, numRead);
                    readbytes += numRead;
          } catch (Exception e){
               e.printStackTrace();
          } finally {
               try {
                    if (in != null) {
                         in.close();
                    if (out != null) {
                         out.close();
               } catch (IOException ioe) {
          }SO, my solution was as follows:
1.) Download file once and check md5 & filesize
2.) If failed, download file AGAIN and check md5 & filesize
3.) If failed 2x, download file for last time and check filesize - if the filesize is within 40 bytes of the actual file, allow it.
This now works on all 4 computers, and as far as I can tell the downloaded files are wholly correct.
But this is really annoying! Why is the above download code producing 8 extra bytes?!

Thanks for your reply, Timo, and John, the same file downloading is working fine with my Integrated weblogic server, but the same application when i deployed in my DEV server i am getting the error.
Code which i am trying to download file is
public void downloadCardInserts(FacesContext facesContext,
OutputStream outputStream) throws FileNotFoundException,
IOException {
// Add event code here...
UploadedFile filename=(UploadedFile)browseFile.getValue();
String fname=filename.getFilename();
String fname1="//bwi-wfp-v01/Apps/SCII/TEST/LOG/Cards/RENEWAL/"+fname;
System.out.println("file name11111:"+fname1);
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(new File(fname1));
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int bytes = in.read(buffer);
while (bytes >= 0) {
outputStream.write(buffer, 0, bytes);
bytes = in.read(buffer);
}

Inadvertent click over 'clear list' crashed the list of downloaded files.How to retrieve that list?

I was downloading the Firefox -5 update yesterday(07-07-2011),
while the process was going on,the 'clear list' tab situated in the left side lower corner was pressed by me inadvertently causing disappearance of the list of all other completed,incomplete and
failed downloaded files.The problem is how to retrieve the aforesaid
list of the downloaded files.Can the downloaded files themselves
also be crashed due to this mistake?If it is so,which is the way to
retrieve those files also?

Sorry again for the Windows menu paths, on Linux use Edit > Preferences instead of Firefox/Tools > Options as I've posted before.
I never told you to disable settings in that part to the history settings, you did that yourself ([[/questions/897299#answer-276610]]).<br />
I told you to check the settings in "Clear history when Firefox closes"
Did you try to delete the downloads.sqlite file in case there is a problem with the file?
Did you check the permissions for all files in the Firefox Profile Folder?
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Update failed: Unable to extract the download files (why????), error U44M1210. What's that ?

When downloading Premiere Pro CC, in Creative Cloud, I'm getting a message:
Update Failed
Unable to extract the downloaded files. Press retry.
(U44M1210)
Sometimes it happens when I'm updating extensions.
Can I directly download and update apps WITHOUT using the Creative Cloud desktop app ?
Please advice.

I had the same problem on a Mac (CC update failing with a U44M1210 error.
. I just finished a chat with an Adobe specialist who walked me through the solution. So I recommend a chat to solve the problem for me (and I suspect all Mac users).
The Solution essentially this came down to the following:
Deleting the following:
OOBE and AAM Updater folders from ~/library/Application Support/Adobe
OOBE and Adobe Application Manager folders from /Library/Application Support/Adobe
Reinstalling the Adobe Application Manager.
Restarting the Creative cloud Application.

CCMSETUP "failed to download files through BITS"

Hi
I'm strugling with my SCCM Clients.
We use:
ConfigMgr 2007 SP1. Client version 4.0.6221.1000. Mixed mode, one site. Server installed on Windows 2003 R2, database clustered. Client are Windows XP Pro with SP3. Site has been published in AD.
Push Client Deployment works fine.
First I tried to deploy the client with Group Policy. Stopped with "failed to download files through BITS"
Then I tried to deploy the client with a script, and finally manually. Got the same error message:"failed to download files through BITS".
End of log file looks like this:
Starting BITS download for client deployment files
Failed to download files through BITS
A Fallback Status Point has not been specified. Message with STATEID='309' will not be sent
Kind of stuck here. Please help!

I solved the "BITS" problem. There was another web-application on the site-server that altered the permissions on the "Default Web Site". The CCM_CLIENT properties had "Script and Executables" selected for "Execute permissions". I Set this back to "None".
Now trying to deploy the client via GPO another error came: "Installation failed because another program is installing (1618)". This was during the wingapi.msi installation.
When a new Window XP Pro Computer is installed various applications are installed from GPO and also Office 2007 scripted. I guess this is a challenge for the ConfigManager Client Bootstrap installation.
So then I tried to deploy the client from startup script, setting the Policy "Maximum wait time for group policy script =0 (infinite)" and the policy "Run startup script asynchronously" = Disabled. This Works!!
The script will fire each time it boots until it is installed. The GPO installation will not retry to install. Therefore I think a script is a safer way to deploy the client.
I will test more on this.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Why the background job for downloading file failed?

I have a background job for downloading file with logical path.
with
'OPEN DATASET l_out_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT';
Now, the program can be run in foreground;but when it running on background, it shows 'open file error'.
I do not know what happen?
Please help ~~

Hi,
The logical path you have provided might be incorrect or you might not have the necessary authorization to read/write on that folder.
Please check the folder in transaction AL11 & check whether you have the authorization to read/write. BASIS consultant would be able to tell you about it.
Best regards,

Fail to download file with explorer 10 while explorer 9 and other browsers succeed to download the same file

I try to download file from management website of switch device. The file size is 11.66K.
The webserver is GoAhead, OS is windows7 and explorer version is 10 (it also happens with explorer 11). The server is using Transfer-Encoding: chunked.
After I download the file, I get pop-up message from the browser “Do you want to open or save running-config.txt from 1.1.1.11?”
If I press the save/open button I get message “running-config .txt couldn’t be downloaded”. If I press the retry button the file is downloaded successfully.
When I used meddler to debug the problem, it didn’t occur and the file was downloaded successfully.
I took capture of successful download (with meddler debugger) and another capture of download that raised “couldn’t be downloaded” message, but I didn’t see any difference between the requests and the responses. I also made sure the last chunk
“0” was not missing in the response and it wasn’t.
Please note, I also tried many suggestions given to other users that reported similar problem – restart explorer, remove add-ons, etc – nothing worked!
Please help.

Hi,
Did this issue occur on when you download file from other website?
This problem occurs if the Do not save encrypted pages to disk option in Internet Explorer is selected.
To fix this issue, try these methods:
Methods 1
On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, click Internet Options, click the
Advanced tab, click to clear the check mark from the Do not save encrypted pages to disk check box in the
Security area, and then click OK. (This is the default Internet Explorer setting.)
Methods 2
1.Start Registry Editor.
2.For a per-user setting, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
For a per-computer setting, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
3.On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following value:
"BypassSSLNoCacheCheck"=Dword:00000001
4.Exit Registry Editor

Safari 4.0.4 fails to download files

I'm unable to download files simply by clicking a link. If I do this Safari tries to open the file in a new browser window. I have to right click the link and ask it to save Linked file as --
This causes lots of problems when the website askes for an email address before sending the file as it then gets sent to a browser window again. In such cases I have to use firefox. Is there a setting I can change?

Hello b:
If you have not done so, reset Safari and then trash the preference file (com.apple.safari.plist). Then restart your computer and reenter your Safari personal preferences.
