Tracking bug for progress on summer of code project

Just wanted to point out that bug 230870 is the "actual" bug on this. Jeff Walden might be interested in talking to whoever's SoC project this is (since he's the assignee of bug 230870).

I'll follow along, and I can give advice/suggestions if needed, but I'm unlikely to follow too closely, given all the other things that occupy my attention (as evidenced by the date/contents of my last comment in that bug).

Hello, I am the student who has taken up this as my SoC project. I am sorry for delayed entry in this discussion. I was discussing few things with my mentor so that I can start of with a proper discussion. Regards Brahmana

Hello, I have the initial design proposal. It was little big to be posted here as a comment. So I have it on my wiki. Here is the link http://brahmana.wikispaces.com/Design+proposal+1 Till now I was studying about XPCOM and XPConnect. I also looked at the current XUL definition of the DM window and related JS. I am yet to probe into the concerned interfaces like nsIResumableChannel, nsIFile and others. This would be my next step. (at mxr.mozilla.org)

I have the read your wiki and all looks reasonably good. However one (important) question as it wasn't clear - if the user closes Firefox while a download is running and selects Clear Private Data - will that wipe away the partial download and all associated metadata?

One note: downloads.rdf already contains a "DownloadState" entry for each download - which indicates that it is: in progress, finished, canceled, paused, failed so one or both of your flags should probably just use this existing flag, adding more states as needed. Also: If there are active downloads and the user closes the browser, I would suggest only alerting and interrupting the user if one of the active downloads doesn't have server support for resuming (assuming this can be determined)

(In reply to comment #6) > I have the read your wiki and all looks reasonably good. > > However one (important) question as it wasn't clear - if the user closes > Firefox while a download is running and selects Clear Private Data I am not aware of a way of doing this before starting a new session. Can you please elaborate on that? Because when the user just starts browser again he will be asked whether to restore or start a new session. And he will have to go through this step before clearing the private data. Is it not so? > - will that > wipe away the partial download and all associated metadata? > Thank you for bringing this in. I had forgotten about the download history being cleared with ctrl+shift+del. AFAIK when Download History is cleared the contents of the contents of dead downloads are erased. I tried it. Clearing download history when there was an active download. The active download was not removed. Then I tried it with a paused download. At that time the Download History check box in private data clearance window was disabled (though it was being shown as selected) and the paused download was not removed. So I guess things have already been taken care of. Since I could still see the entries in the DM window their corresponding entries in the RDF files must also be there unaffected. Now if you were referring to downloads that maintain authentication data in sessions or some similar data in cookies, then I suppose it is out of the scope of this project. I am not aware of how those things work. Hope that made sense and was sufficient Regards Brahmana

Wouldn't it be less of a hassle to just go ahead and resume all auto-restore downloads assuming that if the user didn't want them to resume he would have or will pause them? I think that would simplify the whole experience.

have you considered using wiki.mozilla.org instead of wikispaces for the design spec?

I'd suggest using a separate flag, as this ensures that if someone runs an older version of Firefox on a profile that has already been used with a newer version, there's no risk of the old version getting confused by an unrecognized value for the existing flag.

(In reply to comment #7) > Also: > If there are active downloads and the user closes the browser, I would suggest > only alerting and interrupting the user if one of the active downloads doesn't > have server support for resuming (assuming this can be determined) I have mixed feelings about whether this is the right UI. In the case where the user has forgotten they have a download running, this seems like the wrong behavior. It may also be the case that they are currently on a cheap or high-bandwidth connection, and the next time they connect, they won't be. A reasonable argument could be made, however, that those are the minority cases. faaborg, mconnor, what are your thoughts here?

Having the DM window appear if an auto-restart happens sounds like the right thing to me.

In general, I think the design proposal at <http://wiki.mozilla.org/Brahmana:Design_Proposal_1> as modified by discussion here is a reasonable one. A couple more thoughts: As far as indicating in the UI whether a specific download is considered to be resumable, I think the trick here is going to be figuring out how best to express this in a way that doesn't appear as visual clutter. I suspect the concept of "resumability" isn't likely to be meaningful to a large chunk of our user base, so, on the surface at least, this sounds difficult to me. > There can be two ways in which a session can end. > > 1) The user ends it manually by closing all the browser windows. It's probably worth changing this to "the user exits the browser", since, on Mac, closing all the browser windows does not have this effect. Finally, as far as adding a new state to RDF, I'd suggest using a string literal for this rather than integers, as it will enhance code and data readability. Can you fold the comments here back into the design doc, noting where there are still unresolved issues?

If you don't want to add another pref for this auto-restart behavior, at least make it obey the existing pref: "Show the downloads window when downloading a file" (browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting) Another option might be the sliding alert notification (like the "Downloads complete") but this prob doesn't work on non-Win platforms. Nice if this obeys the existing pref too - right now called browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete

Hmm, the "paused" value already exists in the older version, does it not?

(In reply to comment #18) > > That sounds reasonable but I'm curious if this is a consideration in other > parts of firefox development - places/bookmarks for example. (i.e. if > everything else breaks, having a good DLmgr doesn't help much) Discussions are ongoing (cf <http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.apps.firefox/browse_thread/thread/bfb141d38f18b886/8df29bacbacf5d52>). We are, however, trying to be more sensitive about this than we have been in the past; there's a section in the feature requirement template that encourages everyone to think about this as they design.

In what cases do you think users would be likely to have an issue if this were hardcoded? > Another option might be the sliding alert notification (like the "Downloads > complete") but this prob doesn't work on non-Win platforms. Nice if this > obeys the existing pref too - right now called > browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete Actually, I like this strategy a fair bit. It seems preferable, if we can make it happen on all platforms. I believe Firefox3 intends to ship with Growl support on Mac, though I don't know whether it will actually include Growl for those users who don't already have it installed. Not sure what the Linux story is. Perhaps a reasonable plan would be to do this on platforms that support it, and bring up the download manager on others. (In reply to comment #20) > Hmm, the "paused" value already exists in the older version, does it not? The semantics under discussion here are not so much the "paused" state, but the resumption status: "auto", "manual", or "not supported". We could live without not supported by actually re-testing the server on restart. I'll speculate that there is a bit of value gained by having stuff auto-resume on next start if and only if it was stopped as part of quitting, which does require an extra bit, I think. Here, too, I'd be interested in hearing thoughts from UI folks...

(In reply to comment #11) ... > But I felt doing it your way would be like the browser monitoring the things > and will appear as if the application taking the control away from the user. > Just thought of not keeping the user in dark. ... I suppose it IS monitoring, but it is monitoring something the user ASKED the computer to do, therefore it is not taking away control, but delivering it. Keep up the good work everyone!

In what cases do you think users would be likely to > have an issue if this were hardcoded? Not everyone uses the download manager window to visualize/manage their downloads. I happen to use an extension (that I happened to write) called Download Statusbar. Resuming downloads will already be shown within the browser window so there isn't a need for the DL window to popup. Others use different extensions that put the downloads in a tab or in a sidebar. So I think there should be a pref for either the download manager window coming up, or even a sliding alert notification. > (In reply to comment #20) > > Hmm, the "paused" value already exists in the older version, does it not? > > The semantics under discussion here are not so much the "paused" state, but the > resumption status: "auto", "manual", or "not supported"... Yes, so to be clear - in the original proposal Brahmana mentioned two flags. The first for whether a download was "alive" or "dead" and a second for the resumption status "auto", "manual", or "not supported". Perhaps the first proposed flag is unnecessary because we already have downloadstate. The second flag could be added.

In what cases do you think users > would be likely to have an issue if this were hardcoded? I agree with Devon that on auto-restart the DM should respect the existing pref: b.d.m.showWhenStarting. Currently having that option unchecked means the DM appears only when manually opened. I don't see a reason for auto-restart to override that option. I have it unchecked specifically to keep the DM from cluttering my desktop unnecessarily.

At the time of writing that proposal I was not fully aware of the various entries in the RDF file. I have made necessary changes to the design.

After much IRC discussion of notification stuff, it seems to me that the right thing here is to use nsIAlertService for notification upon auto-restart, probably with a link to the download manager in the notification. This should cover everyone except for Mac users who don't have Growl installed. We should spin off (and nominate as blocking) a separate bug about ensuring that Mac users of Firefox 3 (or Gecko 1.9) have some sort of alert service impl, even if they don't have Growl installed.

>use nsIAlertService for notification upon auto-restart Sorry for the long delay from the UE team, I agree with Dan. -ALex

Hello, I just got a suggestion regarding the proposed design. The suggestion was to disable the [Pause] button or link if there is no server side support for resume instead of having a icon/image. We actually were unable to think of a proper image for that. So this suggestion seems to be apt. Comments? Regards Brahmana

Even non-resumeable downloads are pausable by limiting them to a neglectable speed, like 1 byte/s. I don't know if something like this is planned, but if it ever gets implemented the design would have to change. Based on the suggestion I propose having two buttons: Pause, Play, Pause Disabled, Retry and Cancel, Clean up In order to increase attention that the current download cannot be resumed after restart, the pause icon should not only be "disabled", but having an "red x" or similar stress that pausing isn't possible. A tooltip should explain the meaning of the icon. Other thoughts: Since bug 76111 got fixed, it might be useful implementing an "auto-resume after internet disconnect". Happens when the WLAN fails or on 24h disconnect which both are hardly noticeable by users as the internet connection is reestablished automatically, and even IM messengers do auto-reconnect. No idea if it would be useful for a laptop user switching from cheap/fast LAN to... say some super-expensive connection via mobile phone (UMTS or whatever) though. UI is up to you :) xeen

As per the PRD for Firefox 3, this isn't a blocker, but the progress looks good so let's hope that we can get it in!

Sorry for the delay. This patch does schema checking and upgrades the DB to version 3 to include the new column for entityID. It puts NULL initially and then in nsIDownload:OnStateChange() fetches the entityID and stores it. At resume it creates a new channel and resumes download from the previously cut out point. ******** I am getting a compile error for the entityIDString used at line number 1856. This is the error that I am getting: error C2248: 'nsACString_internal::nsACString_internal' : cannot access protected member declared in class 'nsACString_internal' I am trying to clean this up, but no lead yet. I need some help with this. Regards, Brahmana.

In the above comment the line number 1856 had this code: rv = stmt->GetString(0, entityIDString); with following declarations: nsACString entityIDString; nsCOMPtr<mozIStorageStatement> stmt; I changed that nsACString entityIDString; to nsAutoString entityIDString; The above mentioned error was resovled. But I am getting an error when I send the same string to nsIResumableChannel::ResumeAt() which is expecting an nsCAutoString I suppose. How can I get around this? Regards, Brahmana.

When i did this i got a lot of linker errors. It said some 590 things were unresolved. (Not sure of the number). But this did resolve the earlier compile error. Guidance please. Regards, Brahmana

This is the final part of the make output: xul.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 591 unresolved externals make[4]: *** [xul.dll] Error 96 make[4]: Leaving directory `/e/soc-ff/mozilla/obj-ff/toolkit/library' make[3]: *** [libs_tier_toolkit] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/e/soc-ff/mozilla/obj-ff' make[2]: *** [tier_toolkit] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/e/soc-ff/mozilla/obj-ff' make[1]: *** [default] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/e/soc-ff/mozilla/obj-ff' make: *** [build] Error 2 Regards, Brahmana

This incorporates the changes suggested. entityID TEXT DEFAULT NULL for the DB and nsCAutoString entityIDString; rv = stmt->GetUTF8String(0,entityIDString); This has no compile errors now and that linker error was also because of some other reason. I discarded my old build and did a complete new build and it was successful. Now what I need to know is: What should happen at Pause? I think canceling cannot work as the nsIDownload object will be lost. Suggestions please. Regards, Brahmana.

(In reply to comment #40) > Now what I need to know is: What should happen at Pause? The current download manager already supports pause/resume and cancel/retry/remove: Pause pauses the download, but keeps the partial file, so that the download can be resumed from that point if the user clicks Resume. Cancel stops the download and deletes the partial file. The user can Retry it from the beginning if he wants or Remove the entry from the download manager altogether. The new feature is cross-session resume, i.e. the ability to resume downloads even after a restart of Firefox, so the question is what should happen in the case of restarting Firefox. Downloads should automatically be resumed after a restart by clicking on the Restart button in the Add-ons manager or in the software update dialog, since Firefox restores everything else (tabs etc.) as well. Another question is what should happen when the user closes Firefox today in the middle of a download and opens it tomorrow. Maybe resume the download in the background, but slowly to not interrupt browsing the web, and at full speed once the user opens the download manager; software update does that already. Or just open the download manager and let the user decide whether he wants to resume the download. By the way, there are a bunch of tabs in the patch which should be converted to spaces.

This does not succeed all the time. What now happens at Pause is that we just stop reading from the socket where as the network communication continues to happen until the socket is alive, i.e until timeout occurs. Now if the user clicks resume before that timeout then fine the download resumes. If not then the remaining data in the socket is read and the download is completed. No attempt to make another connection is made. This is what I have changed now. When resume is clicked I create another channel, set it to resume at the point left earlier using the entityID and size of partial download and resume the download. Now for this to happen when pause is clicked the previous channel has to be closed and download should stop absolutely. So I needed some guidance as to how this can be done. And we have had discussions on what needs to be done when restoring FF.

For the pause thing, I had a discussion with biesi and the outcome was that I will be using the mCancelable::Cance(), where mCancelable is of the type nsICancalable. This will close the socket but will not destroy the temporary file. So the channel will be gone and we can safely resume download with a new channel next time. Now for this Cancel() i need to pass an error value (of type nsresult). Though no error has actually happened something like DOWNLOAD_PAUSED or something like that has to be passed. So I wanted to know what this should be. I have incorporated the changes for the DB thing, by using ALTER TABLE now. If things are made clear about the point when the entityID should be fetched I will do that also. I will put up the patch when these things are clear. May be by tomorrow. Regards, Brahmana

Not every download happens through nsIWBP object. http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Overview_of_how_downloads_work We get the entityID after the channel is opened and I guess that happens when the request starts. So I thought STATE_START would be the right place. > This is also why we do this check here: > http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=/mozilla/toolkit/components/downloads/src/nsDownloadManager.cpp&rev=1.100#1340 > Note that this is probably where you want to do your work as well now. > Even if I had to do it here rather than in OnStateChange, then I understand that right after you set the state to DOWNLOAD_DOWNLOADING I fetch the entityID and do the necessary stuff. i.e in the same "if" block pointed to by the link you provided.

Yes, in that if block. See my latest patch in Bug 391870.

Addresses the comments. Done it in a hurry while leaving. Sorry if there are any trivial mistakes. mwu please review the patch. Reagards Brahmana.

The header inclusion nsNetErrors.h was not required. It will be removed.

I would be interested to know whats the difference between the resuming of downloads and automatic update. By updating to a newer version you are able to stop the download and resume it later - also after a restart of Firefox. Is there used another handling as we need here?

At that time we decided that this resume would support only "Save to Disk" option. I have one doubt here. In case of ExternalHelperApp finally ExecuteDesiredAction() is called which moves the file to the final destination. What does the similar thing here when we are using WBP? The biesi's diagram here: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Overview_of_how_downloads_work does not show something like that for the second path. The spaces will be taken care of. Actually they are properly aligned when i see it in my editor ( which is Notepad++ ). In the patch it appears that way. I do not know why. I will make it consistent with the rest of the file.

That's correct; transactions are only necessary when more than one SQL statement needs to be executed atomically; individual statements are atomic.

as for exthandler, I couldn't think of a good way to make that work, though perhaps it's enough to store whether the user selected the default application for that type and if not which application they selected, and run that when the dl is finished.

Here is the summary: What biesi has said above would be done when we want to support resume for downloads of type "Open with [some App]". Until that is supported a work around would be to do the old way of resume (i.e Suspend()/Resume() ) for these type of downloads and the actual Pause/Resume would be done to "Save to Disk" type of downloads.

It directly saves the contents to the target file. So we will have a problem if a download was started via the exthandler, as it would have placed the data in the temp file and resume with nsIWBP would not move the data to target file.(The current patch for resume appends data to the temp file). The solution would be to have a flag(a member of nsDownload) telling us whether we need to move the data to a different file at the end. Regards Brahmana.

And mEntityID is a nsCString, so you can't quite set it to NS_ERROR_NOT_RESUMABLE. But if you were talking about returning that value on failure, that won't quite work either. This piece of code is part of OnProgressChange which gets called quite often during a file transfer, so with the current patch, it'll continuously check if it's QUEUED and fail to get a ResumableChannel and return NOT_RESUMABLE and consequentially not SetState to DOWNLOADING. This means the UI won't get updated until the download changes "Stop" state change at which point the UI might still be wrong because we never updated the progress.

So in case the entityID is not available, then it means we cannot support resume. So mEntityID will be a null string. If possible in such a case the Pause/Resume button should be disabled. Else I can just see if the mEntityID is null string and if not proceed with the resuming. If it is null then either we can shown an alert using nsIAlertService (the sliding notification -- though as discussed earlier Mac users without Growl might have a problem). Regards Brahmana

I'd say that the thing to do here is worry about the "Save As" case, and we can spin the "Open with" case off to a separate bug. In general, we tend to see the most success by keeping individual patches as small as we reasonably can.

> So in case the entityID is not available, then it means we cannot > support resume. I'm pretty sure that that was what I did 5 years ago, but I can't recall for sure... However, the reverse isn't true - an entity id does not guarantee that the URL will be resumable. Looking at the code: - if a file ends up not being resumable (eg because its changed on the server), what happens? Where are the various error responses (NS_ERROR_ENTITY_CHANGED, NS_ERROR_NOT_RESUMABLE) handled? Presumably the user needs to be prompted, or notified, or at least the request needs to be restarted - what will wbp do with a errored channel, anyway? - Ditto for anything but a 'standard' response. Those actually look more serious - they fall down into ProcessNormal in nsHttpChannel and the flags to the webbrowserpersist object means that the error html will just be appended to the existing file, I think? - Redirections are Interesting, too - the http code doesn't seem to take resuming into account, either by passing the various entity/time/conditional-get/etc headers on to the new request, or by failing out as non-resumable (the second is probably correct) Is the URL saved in the download manager is the final, post-redirection URL? BTW, some other suggested things to test: - Resuming a download that requires authentication (if you have 5 files resuming, can you tell which dialog is for which?) - Resuming a download that fails due to a timeout on the server should not invalidate the partially downloaded file. Ditto for DNS errors, etc I'm also wondering what happens cross-version with resumed downloads. The entity id isn't exactly version safe (its a bit of a hack, really), and I'm wondering if there are odd issues that could happen if the format is changed and you try to resume a download in firefox 4 that was started in firefox 3.

I will put a patch addressing quite a few comments by tomorrow morning (my time). I will make it consistent with the recent changes which put the referrer into the DB. Today when i checked the Pause/Resume worked fine once. If I tried to pause for a second time the DM showed the download as still downloading with several millions of GB/sec download speed. And after the Pause/Resume would not work. Tomorrows patch would take care of the mimeinfo thing and possibly notification on a failure. Regards Brahmana

My issue in the bit you quoted was meant for non 2xx responses - eg 404/500/etc just goes through ProcessNormal, via the default bit in the case statement. Won't that just append the server error html to the partly downloaded file? Its been a number of years since I touched mozilla code, so I'm also not sure where the html error pages for page timeouts/dns failures/etc are handled - what does the download manager/nswebbrowserpersist do? > > I'm also wondering what happens cross-version with resumed downloads.

Well, sure, until someone suggests that you use Content-MD5 as another item, or whatever. I came up with the entity thing, so I'm allowed to call it a hack ;) I don't think that its an issue that should block this, though; at the worst you could bump the sqllite version and migrate that way. It does deserve a comment in nsHttpChannel/nsFtpChannel, though

This takes care of "Open With" type of downloads in the old way of "Suspend()/Resume()". Clears the entityID after the download ended (Successful or Failed).

But you're right, HTTP should probably check for error codes and abort the load if (mResuming).

That is correct. It should only be |ADD COLUMN entityID TEXT| Also, spaces should go at the end of the lines, not the beginning to match the rest of the file. more in a bit...

This is the v3.sqlite file that should be dropped into toolkit/components/downloads/test/schema_migration.

Does nsHttpChannel check that? I don't see where it does. It probably should.

Addresses the comments. Will submit test case later in a separate file. No perl and hence cant use cvsdo. Will do it tomorrow.

The test case for version 4 migration.

You're right though, the code should check for that. Filed Bug 393624

BTW, the code does take that into account. See nsHttpChannel::SetupReplacementChannel, which transfers the resuming information to the new channel. (As for the WBP questions you asked and that I ignored, I don't know the answer to them.. needs testing)

why set mEntityID to the empty string when the download is complete? There doesn't seem to be a reason for that...

(In reply to comment #88) > why set mEntityID to the empty string when the download is complete? There > doesn't seem to be a reason for that... It would be less to store in the DB

entity IDs are short...

Addresses all the comments, except the following: 1) biesi's about making the mEntityID null after the download. 2) Edward's comment about "if (save) { if (pause) { } else { /* resume */ } } else { /* openWith */ ... }" As the function is PauseResume I thought of making Pause/Resume the first condition to be checked. 3) For the Line wrap comments, I went with sdwilsh. ************* REQUEST *************** I request people to apply this patch and test it. Because when I tried it, Minefield crashed for every download.. and even "Save Page As". Though my patch deals with Pause/Resume, Minefield was crashing for every "Save image as". So please try it and tell me what happened. Regards, Brahmana.

I tried to download Notepad2 from this page http://www.flos-freeware.ch/ Minefield crashed when I clicked on the download link there. I tried to debug it and set breakpoints at the nsDownloadManager::Init() and few other places where I have changed the code. But Minefiled just crashed and never reached those breakpoints. So I just wanted to know whether this patch is causing the crashes. Regards, Brahmana.

That would be the better solution. Something like: nsresult nsDownload::BreakCycle(nsresult rv) { mCancelable = nsnull; (void)wbp->SetProgressListener(nsnull); return rv; } Then we can just do: NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, BreakCycle(rv)); on all of those lines.

When the app crashes while running under the debugger, you can tell (a certain amount about) what's happening by looking at the stack; no breakpoints necessary. Does the stack reveal anything interesting?

According to sdwilsh, you should be able to assume save to disk in those cases.

(In reply to comment #97) > Disregard all of that. Juset create the cycle before you call ResumeAt, and > handle failure of ResumeAt properly. > ResumeAt() never seems to fail. I mean it always returns NS_OK. Here are the implementations for HTTP and FTP channels: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/netwerk/protocol/http/src/nsHttpChannel.cpp#4680 http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/netwerk/protocol/ftp/src/nsFTPChannel.cpp#115 So what exactly do you mean by handling the failure of ResumeAt() ? From what I could gather, a wrong entityID would result in a failure in the nsHttpChannel::ProcessNormal() where a check is performed between the entityID sent and the one fetched from the server at that time. Though it is checked for empty string in SetUpTransaction here : http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/netwerk/protocol/http/src/nsHttpChannel.cpp#562 no failure is expected even if the string is empty. So based on a discussion with biesi I am checking for mEntityID.IsEmpty() and if it is so then the download will follow the old Suspend/Resume path.

Addresses mwu's comment: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377243#c95 and also sdwilsh's comment partly. I just moved the code which creates cycle to the place just before ResumeAt(), but as I said in my previous comment I need know what sort of checking do I need to do as ResumeAt() always returns NS_OK. biesi: Do we get an error from SaveChannel() because of wrong entityID? I followed the code till nsHttpChannel::SetUpTransaction and found out that no error would occur. So if the error occurs at ProcessNormal() will it come here? Should I check for the return of SaveChannel() to break the cycle between nsIWBP and nsIDownload? And in this patch, if the entityID is null then it follows the old Suspend/Resume path. This may be later changed to notify the user that Resume is not possible. Regards, Brahmana

No, you get the error asynchronously, since you have to connect to the server to find out whether it's wrong. You either get the error in onStateChange or onStatusChange, I forgot which. > Should I check for the return of SaveChannel() to break the cycle between > nsIWBP and nsIDownload? You do have to handle a failure return from SaveChannel.

(In reply to comment #102) > I would have also created the cycle just before SaveChannel instead of before > ResumeAt, but sdwilsh and biesi say it should be before. Don't forget to break > the cycle if SaveChannel fails. Er, no. I always said it should be done before SaveChannel. As for mTempFile, that variable can be null. You need to handle that case.

I remember running into issues when trying to deleting files for Link Fingerprints. WBP is for "save links" and doesn't use mTempFile and only mTarget. This has a couple issues: 1) if we do have a temp file, we should continue saving to mTempFile instead of mTarget but yet somehow (??) trigger exthandler's moving the temporary to the actual target and 2) if we don't have a temp file, we should be getting the size of mTarget and continue appending to mTarget. brahmana: The reason why you're getting insanely huge download speeds is because OnProgressChange64 is getting an aCurTotalProgress based on the newly created channel -- it starts back at 0 when you resume. But the download already knows that it downloaded some amount, so when it does.. nsUint64 diffBytes = curTotalProgress - nsUint64(mCurrBytes); it overflows to a really big unsigned 64. biesi: Is the channel supposed to report total progress from where it resumed? biesi: Additionally, some reason it's sometimes hitting an assert in nsHttpChannel::OnDataAvailable after resuming.. NS_ASSERTION(progress <= progressMax, "unexpected progress values"); http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/netwerk/protocol/http/src/nsHttpChannel.cpp#4475 which would indicate it's getting more bytes than it expected which is contrary to the issue above...

Address almost all the comments except for Edward's about CancelDownload() calling PauseResume(). I need more inputs on that. And what I do not understand is why do we have to first resume before Canceling if it is paused? Is it because the mCancelable is not available? or because some other member is not available? About the crashes, it appears that it is not because of my code at all. I set a break point at the point where an instance of DM is created, i.e in GetSingleton(). The control did not reach there at all. When I tried to download Firefox (for ext handler type of download) and Notepad2 (for Save link as type, from: http://www.flos-freeware.ch/zip/notepad2.zip ). In both cases it crashed before it hit the breakpoint. So I guess my code is safe. At least with the latest patch where I am checking for almost every member which I am using. And about the ExecuteDesiredAction() functionality for nsIWBP based downloads, I guess that should come out as a different bug. (This is needed in 2 cases: 1) If we plan to support resume for "Open with" kind of downloads 2) For a download started by Ext Handler we need to move the data to the final mTarget file from the mTempFile.) dmose, biesi, what do you think? Regards, Brahmana.

I think it makes more sense for the channel to only report progress for what it is actually downloading. That makes it consistent with the contentLength property, and it makes aCurProgress match the amount of the data passed to onDataAvailable. > biesi: Additionally, some reason it's sometimes hitting an assert in > nsHttpChannel::OnDataAvailable after resuming.. > > NS_ASSERTION(progress <= progressMax, "unexpected progress values"); > http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/netwerk/protocol/http/src/nsHttpChannel.cpp#4475 > > which would indicate it's getting more bytes than it expected which is contrary > to the issue above... Hmm, normally that's a server bug, but it could easily be a but in our code here. Can you file a new bug on that, ideally with a testcase?

Cancelling a paused channel only takes effect once it is resumed. It's because channels are supposed not to send any notifications while paused. > About the crashes, it appears that it is not because of my code at all.

You need to take care of 2) in this bug, it's important for correctly doing resuming...

(In reply to comment #108) > Cancelling a paused channel only takes effect once it is resumed. It's because > channels are supposed not to send any notifications while paused. > Ok. So a channel being pause would mean a Suspend() being called on the nsIRequest object, right?

And probably we also need a flag to know when to call this. Because for a normal download via ext handler, this will be done separately. Inputs on this please. Regards, Brahmana

Since we're getting very close to the deadline (the tree closes this coming Wednesday), I'd like to propose the following: brahmana, if you could get your patch as complete as you can by tomorrow (Saturday, September 1, Pacific time), that'd be great. mwu/sdwilsh: if after that, one of you guys could review, make any necessary changes, and then submit for module owner review, address any comments, and land, that would be fantastic. Since, as I understand it, the crash that's been discussed here still happens even after the patch has been backed out, we should be in good shape.

Sorry for the delay in the reply(I do not have access to internet at home). From what I discussed with mwu, I need to handle the error messages from server which we get in OnStateChange(). Then I have to bring in the functionality of ExecuteDesiredAction(), when the download was started through Ext handler and paused and resumed(only for saveToDisk kind of downloads). For this we need 3 things: 1) know whether ext handler started it: mTempFile can tell this -- it is null if ext handler is not involved 2) It was a Save To Disk download: We are already doing it.. mMIMEInfo tells us this 3) whether it was paused and resumed: I did not get a way to find this out. Should we have a flag that tell us whether a download was paused and resumed so that appropriate action can be taken in CompleteDownload(). And about the crashes, biesi's solution worked. Now I am not getting any more crashes(with the resume code). Regards Brahmana

Does this mean you'll have a new patch today?

This has the code to move the data to target file. Problem: When I checked, all downloads we getting corrupt. From what I could figure out GetFileSize() was not returning the right value. This led to repeated part data and corrupt downloads. Regards Brahmana.

Changed the variable SaveToDisk to saveToDisk. Will put in code to clone file before getting size tomorrow by 10 am here(India). Regards, Brahmana

Fixes review nits. Also adds the referrer to the channel. This still gets corrupted downloads when pausing - and it seems like it is restarting the download even though we are calling ResumeAt based on the number of bytes we get at the end.

and here we go. Turns out the append flag is a bad thing to do. This works flawlessly for me. Normal downloads, multiple pauses, single pause. Nothing is corrupted. There is still an issue with the UI, but that's not so trivial to fix (Edward and I are still working out the best way to solve that). Downloads still work, so this is OK to land. I've filed Bug 395134 about the UI.

So when will this in 2007 "verified fixed" bug finally land in Firefox? Now we soon enter 2012, I run Firefox 8.0, and this browser still can't resume downloads. It says "download finished" when it is not finished at all, and the result is a corrupted file which I cannot open. Guess I'm the only person downloading files with Firefox these days. Why is Mozilla forcing me to use an external download manager that can actually resume interrupted downloads? Maybe another shift is necessary. May I suggest the name "Winter of Code"?
