Ok, was trying to download a file that was over 140 characters (not including the extention) long and bit comet refused to download it giving an error saying, “No error Occured” followed by the file name and where it was going to be stored. The only way I could get around this is using a different torrent client, ie utorrent. I think this needs to be fixed. thanks
has anyone else had the same problem as me?
sorry. i was not sure i understand what you said. did you mean the file has a very long name which is 140 characters?
Actually, yes I have to agree with you Springy, basically um, what he was trying to say was that, the torrent name itself was very long, and if the name exceeds 20-30 letters, BitComet will refuse to open it, sometimes even saying that it’s an error with Infohash.
Yes. I have tried and found some problems. We will correct it in the next version.
Well, no thats is not what I mean, if the .torrent file has more than one file which is of length above 140 character, it will refuse to download it. So for example, if a torrent name is testing.torrent and contains files such as fsdafdsfsdafdsgsagdsgddsaduhgioudhsaouhdsapuhdgsaouigdsauhgsdhogdasohgsdaohgsdaousdgahdousaighusdhaghdsauhghhugsa.extension it will not download that file and give an error as what I posted in the first post. That is the error I got, which I don’t think anyone has found, since this was like an one of case.
Ohh okay, I get it. So this error is also occurring for torrents with files inside that have names exceeding 100 characters or so right?
Hm, this does need to be corrected.
Yup, that is what I mean. I haven’t testing with TORRENT names being larger than 100 char.. but I might do one day. But char file inside the torrent needs to be corrected.
yeah i had the same problem once, was in an Anime OST, the filename was too long, something like this: artist - anime - album - song title - alternate song title.mp3
it didnt accept downloading that file n that file only..
yeah, I tried myself to rename the file, but it didn’t work, so I had to use utorrent to download that file only. LOL

lol, i used azureus to download that specific file, n then i resumed the whole pack with bitcomet, it worked, it even hashed the file it didnt accept before without erroring! lost some percentage due to size package, but it continued it whole..
yup tripleQ, thats what I did, but used utorrent for that specific file, but 0.70 is out now.. I wonder if they fixed it or not? Need to check.
