Description Phil Cohen 2003-04-15 20:09:32 UTC 
Version:           v0.8.3 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3 20030325 (Ark Linux 1.0 3.3-0.cvs20030326.1ark)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.pre5.5ark

if i stop or even pause a download in Kget, when i go to resume it starts the file from scratch. when i click stop or pause, it appears to delete the .part file and just starts over from the beginning when you resume. This happens to me everytime and on multiple file types (.iso, .tar, etc.). It seems that it should keep partially downloaded data and only resume what needs to be downloaded.

Resumption in KGet works fine for me. Note that KGet cannot resume a 
previously started download if the remote server does not support resumption.  
Please feel free to re-open this ticket if the failure happens to every download 
you attempted to resume from different servers.  Also please specify which 
protocol was involved in the resumption: ftp, http, ... ?

As the comment from 2003-07-16 02:22 indicates, download resumption is server dependent. For the most part this works. This is now fixed in KGet v0.83 (Using KDE 3.1.93 (CVS >= 20031028)). Bug report should be closed. FIXED
