Silly me has posted the delete link here yesterday instead of the download link. Arrgh.

Fuer Peter nochmal ein Downloadlink für den ersten Teil von Loft: http://www.sendspace.com/file/kgrug9

> Welcome back Martina!

Tnx. Don't know why I'm here, probably it's because days get longer and sunnier and a bit warmer (although the Rhine was still quite cold today, but hey {shiver}, I didn't care ;-).

> I thought you were going to berate me for missing the leading ' off "'InglIS" ;-)

BTW, "to berate" is a nice false friend I didn' know before, "beraten" means to advice.

>I don't know how to fix this one.

I've tried to download a file from WetInRed again, with a dramatically reduced download rate (using wget --limit-rate 10K) and it seems the server cuts the connection after some time (and not after some megabytes as I thought before). The time each connection survives is not constant, it varies between 80 s and 180 s. However, is there a chance that a server setting such like max_execution_time in php.ini is wrong?

Welcome back Martina!

I thought you were going to berate me for missing the leading ' off "'InglIS" ;-)

I logged into wetinred.com via SSH and investigated a little. The server isn't overloaded, it's very happy. But before long, it amassed 231 zombie php.cgi processes while I was watching (which cannot be killed via kill/killall). With no positive leads from Freenode #dreamhost either, I sent off a support ticket. The support guy simply blamed the zombie processes, the cause of which seemed transient and totally unknown. However, the problem persists now all of those have disappeared (and haven't returned). I've sent him a copy/paste of ps showing the very happy server, but DreamHost don't seem to have a clue (their support staff are pretty useless). (Yes it affects people besides me ... I'm the Webmaster, I'm writing because my users are complaining!)

I'm not overloading the server that I know of, and the problem has come on all by itself without me altering any code on my site. So I'm at a loss. I don't know how to fix this one. I'd have to find out, somehow, what exactly is happening to the dl.php script when it dies.

And I don't mind if you post the clip elsewhere ... may as well, my site's hosed. I think he was asking for the rest of the clips from The Loft, which I showed him. But he needs to join for those and, right now, I have no idea what to do about membership since hardly anyone seems interested in joining and I have no idea what a fair rate is for, say, 2-month memberships.

I've tried to download it and had difficulties, too. After a random number of megabytes, the server stalls, then the connection is closed. Web browsers (I'm currently using FF) seem to store that first part without an error message in that case. The breaks happened with all the longer clips I tried from Wetinred's freebies section.

I finally used wget which is able to resume such downloads.

Peter, hier ist ein Link zum Download fuer dich: http://www.sendspace.com/delete/unkhzw/8tldt

Telcontar, I know it's not my clip and I'll immediately remove it if you want.
