NZB Completion Checker 0.9a update #3
A new very small update was just uploaded to the site. This fixes new connections issues with some servers – or most servers! I misread the RFC and used UTF8 where I was not supposed to – my bad 
Anyways, the download link has been updated, so pleeease download the file again 
The new build number is: 0.9.4401.40344

Found a small glitch that nearly made me give up on this neat little program. I added a server but didn’t define it as the ‘primary server’. The program then (upon hitting the start button) tried to connect to my local IP. Log says connection refused on 192.168.1.xxx:119 or similar.
Once I hit the ‘primary server’ button everything worked as expected!
version: 0.9.4401.40344

I am also a bit confused about the breakdown chart. It seems that some of the numbers get rounded up/down with confusing results. e.g.
Segments
OK 132
missing 1
% 99
Files
Complete 3
Incomplete 0
% 100
Bytes
OK 51559216
missing 398592
% 99
NZB Status 100
This is with a single server
The same file in a multi-server setup
Bytes
OK 53553
missing 51904255
% 0
Files
2
1
66
Segments
132
1
99
NZB Status 66 / 43
I also noticed a server completion of > 100% (e.g. 102%) in a multi-server setup where the nzb is actually incomplete (although with a larger nzb than the one above)
Also, I noticed that one can open the most recent report by clicking the report icon in the Files tab. I discovered this merely by accident. Maybe it would help to make the column larger so one can read the column header, or to add a tooltip saying ‘click to open report’, or to replace the icon with a open hyperlink.
cheers

Hi gurp!
As I mentioned in a previous blog post, the breakdown form is not completely done yet. I still have a few kinks to sort out regarding multiple servers, so there might be a few errors (some of which you have found – and thank you for that!). But it should be sorted out before 1.0beta.
And good point about the missing tooltip. It will be added to the next release

“unexpected server response while authenticating: 500 What?”
is what I see in the LOG tab, when I click ‘start’ after I selected my nzb file.
what does this mean?
