Opera 6 refusing to resume downloads

phaxx · 24-05-2002 9:35pm #1

Is anyone else having this problem? So far I've seen it on three seperate Opera 6 installs and none of them will resume a download, it's a pain in the arse. Have searched the opera site, and googled, but found nothing at all.

Suggestions?

Is it ment to resume them? (sorry i dont use it anymore so i wouldnt know)

Heh, yes, it certainly is.

I click resume, it looks like it's beginning the download, but it never actually goes anywhere. (speed and filesize never change)

It doesn't work with any server, even one I know allows resuming - I do it all the time with wget.

Maybe its a bug.
I had that problem with Getright but i was on a network.
Also do you have norton installed by any chance?

I don't have norton, I'm sure it's a bug but the opera bug tracking system wants me to register and I hate doing that for little things like a bug report.

We have norton corprate edition in work and it corrupts the downloads. Being a pc shop and all ya think we'd fix it.
God no

empty your cache, and try the resuming

Ive been running opera for months now and Ive never had any problems resuming. Have you tried running the latest public beta (6.02 Build 1090). You should be able to find the link at BetaNews
