DownloadDaemon 1.1

which package ?

[dinjo]

hey i meant the downloaddaemon , i tried again by re-installing base-devel and kernel headers and this time install went through well.

Whats the command to start the GUI

[dan64]

The program install only the daemon, the shell should be located in /etc/init.d (see please the first post), recently I have changed the PKGBUILD and now the shell to start the server should be located in /etc/rc.d.

The easy way to use the client is to install the windows version "ddclient-gui-1227_win32" : see the first post for the link.

There is also a php client that you can find using this link: ddclient-php-nightly-1242.tar.gz

Does this support resume downloads in case where internet connection is lost ?

[dan64]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('dinjo', 'D')oes this support resume downloads in case where internet connection is lost ?

[dinjo]

Ok let me make it simple say its mediafire which supports resume but as in case with pyload a disconnection cause the download to start from scratch and not resume, can you test downloading a mediafire and mid of it disconnect the router and start router again want to see from where would the download start will it resume or from start, thanks for your time

dinjo,
it's better that you try by yourself, in this way you are free to do any kind of test. If you think that the application need to be improved you can ask to the developer forum: http://sourceforge.net/projects/downloaddaemon/forums.

Ok I tried and was finally able to get it running here are my thoughts

Captcha didn't worked not sure whether something is required to be installed if yes it should have been part of install instructions

Download speed seems capped to me as i was not able to max my speed

Download does not resume when internet goes off no matter what type of reconnect you choose.


dan,
If you can work on sorting these it would be a great piece of software

dinjo,

to handle the captcha you have to insta gocr, see: http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=701&start=30#p4582.

for my need the application is fine even if is not perfect. As you know using a premium account all the limitation of free accounts are removed and is nice to have a downloader running on ARM instead of using a PC for this simple (but time consuming) task. The hosters that I know doesn't provide a client running on this platform. Using the free account is not expensive but you have to be happy with the limitations. If you think that there are bugs or that the application need to be improved you should post in the developer forum not here. I have provided the compiled application only because some people had problem to compile the package.

Sorry, I don't user this downlader, if I wanted a download that took some time, I would install screen, run a screen session and wget if I had too. You can then disconnect.
Doesn't help if captcha is needed though
