| Issue 21: | Canceling Download Makes Further Downloads Impossible | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start a download 2. Cancel it 3. Try and download another show What is the expected output? What do you see instead? It allows it to cancel but then any other shows that I try to download hang and do nothing. Quitting the program and restarting doesn't fix the problem. Only a computer restart, or waiting for a really long time and then relaunching the program fixes the problem. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 1.3 OS X 10.5.5 Please provide any additional information below.

Hmm.. I just noticed that the code assumes that usernames are all-lowercase. If you open up a terminal and type whoami What username does it get (are there any uppercase letters in it or spaces?). Changing the code to accept anything that is non-whitespace. I wonder if that was the bug

When I type whoami in the terminal it gives me my username which contains no uppercase letters or spaces. So that must not be the issue, at least in my case.

I may have figured it out. I was running the new version 1.3 off of my desktop for testing purposes. Since I moved it to my applications folder I have not had this issue yet. Could that have been causing the problem?

I don't *think* it should cause problems, but at least I'm glad to see you got it fixed (I run temporary new version out of different locations without issue). So clearly something is up, but at least installing it fixes it. I unfortunately can't reproduce this problem here. If it happens again, can you open up a terminal.app and run ps -jAww -o command | grep -e 'iTiVo.app' and include the output? I want to try and figure out why it's not finding your applications to kill.. Moving it to Priority-low for now since we have a 'workaround' and I can't work on the bug until I can reproduce it.

assuming this hasn't happened since you 'installed' the app? Marking it as 'fixed' I guess. if more people report this as an issue I'll just add it to the faq.
Status:
Fixed
