Posted January 8, 2013 Hi. I've been trying to understand why this XML>BZ2 hublist works in ApexDC++:http://www.te-home.net/?do=hublist&get=hublist.xml.bz2 (HTTP redirect) While this one, same XML but uncompressed, does not work:http://www.te-home.net/?do=hublist&get=hublist.xml (HTTP redirect) The only difference between those two is BZ2 compression. Both are being given to the client same way, no MIME-type is being sent from web server. Please help me to understand. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14, 2013 If the server does not send a mime type (Apex)DC++ falls back to assuming compressed hublist most likely. Also for what it is worth when working with serverside scripting, and DC++'s limited http support, you might need to explicitly make sure that the mime type and Content-Length headers are sent (also effectively disable chunked transfers, because DC++ hasn't supported them for that long). Also, make sure that serverside gzip compression is not applied to the plain xml files obviously, and check that the files are utf-8 encoded, or compatible, because dcpp's XML classes take some liberties when it comes to encoding.

Posted January 17, 2013 MIME-type was the case here. Thank you for help Crise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
