2 major improvements:
  1. re-tries to download a file if it get server error messages
  2. will now download all folders in a root folder that spans multiple pages

it is highly recommended that you get this new version. As traffic increase there will be more and more problems with server errors, time outs and lockups.

And please everyone use some DELAY in your downloads, server traffic is only going to get worse as it gets closer to the end of the month.

Bob - is there a way to modify BS Backup when attempting to download via source directory to not have to verify user directory?

An example - I want gallery 241544 but when I enter that into BSBackup I get an error:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=241544 ** ERROR - i can’t find this user directory. Please check the USER ID.

it’s because that directory really is missing. it’s starting to look like you can only download your own directory if you are logged in. i just made changes to BS Backup so you can login to your account and download your personal directory or any directory that you know the username and password for. get it here: http://www.fial.com/bob/partscatalog/download.php

does it make sence for everyone to change thier password to something generic so everyone can login to thier account? if so how do you change your password? i can’t find a link.

this new version also has code for getting around proxy servers, though it is not tested because we don’t have a proxy here.

It’s obvious Kevin has a reason for doing this, and it’s likely to be that his server is getting pounded. If we choose to circumvent it, he will most likely do something else to reduce the load, maybe even take the site down early. I would suggest that is NOT a good thing.

You get this error when the folder is not moderated yet.

Hope this helps.

P.S. Bob, thanks for these new versions after a very long time.
