Update all groups not working.

Header count in the add groups section incorrect for the group size such as boneless.

My boneless is showing 6.6 billion posts in "Group Add" which is probably pretty accurate i believe. I deleted the groups.db3 file, re-downloaded and now it's showing 6.85 billion posts.

Someone mentioned that "Unsorted" isn't being included in a header download. I have lots of different group topics so, I probably didn't notice.

I'll check it out thanks.

Single server groups retrieval shows boneless at the top with over 6 billion but the combined count from multi server groups retrieval shows the list in the wrong order with boneless down at 190mb.

Suggests one of your servers is probably reporting a bogus number.

Newsbin just tosses them into the database. It's not vetting the number so, if a server lies, that number might get in there. It does an "insert or replace" so, when you us multiple servers it's just "luck of the draw" as to which server is actually represented in the display.

It would be possible, though slow to pull the current group, compare the count and don't change it if it's already the largest could but, I expect that would make it significantly slower. That wouldn't fix a server that exaggerates the counts though.

I changed it to look at the count and only update if the new record is larger than the old.

Since upgrading to 6.5, sample files error out every time. example:

[06:21:10] ERROR AutoPARPlugin: Autopar Block Counts Indicate good files but, UnRAR FAILED: No UnRAR: sample-xxx.srs

[12:36:35] ERROR AutoPARPlugin: Autopar Block Counts Indicate good files but, UnRAR FAILED: No UnRAR: sample-xxx.srs

Those files don't unrar anyway...

Thanks, I'll try to reproduce.

They were unraring for me into their own folders in 6.4 and previous versions.

SRS files aren't rar files so, they don't unrar. In 6.42, if they were mentioned in the PAR files, they were moved to the same folder that the rars unrared too.

Maybe what's happening is they're not being moved.

Great stuff.

"Update all groups" and " Add Groups" now working.
