Download and upload anomalies: 0 bytes downloaded files and missing uploaded file.

#1 Post by DrLightman » 2015-09-24 16:43

The title is a compressed version of my recent backup/restore experience of a Wordpress based website, with FileZilla FTP client latest version, from one hosting to another hosting.

Long story short, during the download, 2 out of 2700 files, the wp-includes/http.php file and wp-admin/users.php to be exact, were downloaded as an empty file (0 bytes), while in the server their size is 16.787 bytes and 16.863 bytes respectively.

Instead, during the upload, 1 out of 2700 files, wasn't even uploaded, a file "flexslider.css" of 3.533 bytes of the Wordpress theme in use.

Now, I think this is the first time this is happened to me in so many (5~10) years of work. I can think of some subjects accountable of those errors:

1. bad shared hostings from which I downloaded/uploaded

2. my connection (DSL fiber 30MB/3MB)

3. my 2 months old new PC with Windows 10 Pro 64bit, 16GB ram

4. the new latest FileZilla client updated some days ago

5. random shit

Before opening a bug for this, I'll do some more test in the next days downloading lots of files from a reliable server to see if it happens again.
