6.90RC6: spurious "error" line in download queue

Postby Tyador Borlu » Sat Feb 26, 2022 5:42 pm

This is new with RC6: an "error" line in the Downloading Files queue.

I have not been able to consistently reproduce this behaviour (which makes me think this is possibly some sort of wicked async bug) but the general approach is this:

- have a bunch of NZB files ready in your watched folder
- let NewsBin discover and load them into the DF queue.
- now select bundles of those and move them around, moving them to your wish list, and back from there into the download queue.
- I've also (very rarely) seen it happen when selecting a block of download entries and moving them up the queue (changing download order)

The way to get rid of the "error" line is to restart NewsBin - /BUT/ this hasn't helped under all circumstances: it happened ONCE where I had 2 "error" lines in the queue and a restart would not remove them. They "disappeared" for the queue as the downloads commenced.

6.90 has effectively been released. You probably want to download the latest from the beta page and try is.

Umm, I am running 6.90RC6, which looks like it's the latest beta available in the website (RC6, dec 22, 2021); I re-checked and did download it /again/ (+ re-install) but I wonder: what do you mean with "6.90 has effectively been released. [...]"? The official /non-beta/ download is still v6.82, dec 29, 2019 at the website.

English is not my mother tongue, so apparently this is a breakdown in my comprehension.

I was under the impression that I was already running the very latest available NewsBin Pro: 6.90RC6.

Can you please elaborate?

The beta section of this forum.

Dex is working on the language stuff. Once that's done he'll change the main website to reflect the new version.
