Category: http
Group: wrong behaviour
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Priority: 5
Submitted By: Tomas Pospisek (tpo)

Summary: continue fails on completely downloaded files

Initial Comment:
System is a linux 2.4 box
 
$ curl --version
curl 7.12.2 (i386-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.12.1 OpenSSL/0.9.7d
zlib/1.2.1.1 libidn/0.5.2
Protocols: ftp gopher telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz
 
The file /tmp/X has allready been entirely downloaded:
$ ls -l /tmp/X
-rw-r--r-- 1 tpo tpo 22688683 Oct 24 19:34 /tmp/X
 
If I try to resume download curl fails:
 
curl -C - --fail https://some.apache.webserver/X

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 416
 
This behaveour is problematic, since when scripting curl I have
no idea if the file in question is on disk is the same one as the
one on the server (file1 != file2 <-> sizeof(file1) !=
sizeof(file2)).
 
IMHO curl should determine that download has "failed" because
the file is allready on disk in its entirety.
 
Thanks,
*t
