@kupjones Thank you for your effort into debugging and giving us as much information as you can.

I cannot reproduce your problem after running downloads and extracts thousands of times on all DLC servers in the ring from various locations around the world.

None of the downloads timed out or ended up corrupt. But this is using purely curl/7z to verify, I cannot properly/automatically reproduce the installer because Windows/GUI stuff. I also cannot reproduce situations where the line has tons of packetloss/jitter, maybe I could simulate but that's out of the scope for a problem only 1 person seems to have.

Is this problem still happening for you?

Then there are 0 issues between you and the DLC server.

Issue is located elsewhere.
 

I'm confident your virusscanner, that you might not even know you had, is blocking this installer.

Passed it on.

Thx for reporting.

Alright, my isp made some changes, I made some changes, things have changed.

Most of my isps are now getting a much more stable connection towards the DLC server.

How is it looking over there?

Hosting place is being shitty as fuck right now, can't do much about it.

Packet loss is an issue right now. Users are being throttled down to 200KB/s aswell.

Again, nothing Aslain/I can do about it. I have to deal with about 10TB of traffic every week, I get 0 compensation for the server/time invested.

Network revamp of isp is underway and should be happening tomorrow so expect more downtime by then. Maybe after that we'll see improvement.

Reason for not responding earlier to you guys is because this forum stopped sending me emails about new posts for no reason.

No problems here.

I'll investigate if you're not the only person out of the thousands that is having issues.

I am yes but I got the torrent file from Aslain and was able to apply it.

Alright, good to know.

All settings were back to when you didn't have the issues and you still have the issues.

So the tweaks were probably a coincidence with a different issue.

I'm leeching at a capped 250KB/s connection over tor and I can get a stable connection for over 45 minutes now.

I'm amazed that you've not run into these issues on other servers outside the US.

Well you had the problem fixed and now its not working again, weird and entirely frustrating. I have a strange question though....  if I was to download it through the torrent doesn't it still come from the same place? 

 

Torrent is not HTTP, so it uses a completely different protocol to transfer data.

Are you still having timeout issues?

Going by Davidinlv82's latest screenshot, the problem happens at hop 8 and forward, before reaching the DLC server. So it's something in between him and the DLC server.

No, crossing the Atlantic ocean and seeing an increase of around 100ms is normal. Especially when the traffic needs to be delivered to people's homes (they usually get cheaper/slower routes).

The problem is related to my server cutting off his connection because he's not responding in time, this time value being 60 seconds with the current configuration.

Tweaked settings back to normal.

122MB at a capped 20KB/s speed running for nearly two hours, not a single timeout.

I can't help you/your connection any more than this.

fail from the start, never got any bit of it downloaded

Everything fine here

My connection speed isn't slow, it's 60 Mbps........ All I know is it's a problem that was fixed before and is now not working as it was....

Try dl again.

Unable to complete downloads again for larger files. Tried adding the hit zone skins and it goes great for the first 30-50 MB it downloads then i get the error in the screenshot

I tuned down the keepalive timeout because of the recent spike in traffic.

A few people might fall between the boat because of this.

Dealing with slow connections keeps the server busy for longer than a fast connection would.

I will tune these values further in the coming days.

Either 10k people get their download finished within a reasonable time, or everyone will be punished for those few people (so far only you) with slower connections.

Hello.

 

Contour Icon don't work.

Please provide more information. What "Contour Icon" are you talking about.

Can you send me the current wows torrent file? Having the same problem again with the DLC for World of Warships

*Link Removed*

Just now, Davidinlv82 said:

Thank you, I'm guessing I put that in the dlc folder?

 

I Think so

http://tt.cloud.tilaa.com/other/skins_Milkyman.7z

Here you go.

This is hosted on another server from me. It should not have connection closed problems.

It's a torrent file, use a torrent client to download it.

http://deluge-torrent.org

http://www.bittorrent.com/downloads

Or browser addons:

firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/torrent-tornado/

chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jstorrent/anhdpjpojoipgpmfanmedjghaligalgb

Make sure you only select the files you want to download, the torrent itself is 9,26GB and contains all DLC content.

*Link removed*

Use the backup torrent and grab the files you need through there.

I can replicate the error very easily now so the fix should not be very far away.

What am I supposed to do about this part?

I can't help you fix that, try pinging any stable host (google.com) while maximizing your download/upload speed and see if your ping increases. If it does then you have a problem which I cannot fix for you. try this aswell: http://www.pingtest.net/

Combining that problem with nginx having a hard time keeping a connection alive might be the reason why you have more problems than the rest.

Seeing as your ping is increasing on other hosts as well during the download I can see that your router is not balancing the traffic correctly and giving too much priority to one of the two.

Using the Aslain installer won't give you correct feedback, just use wget next time you want to test it.

I still have no response from my ISP about the issue. From my current understand it's probably something related to the upstream keep-alive not working within nginx.

"the user is not allowed to rename the torrent or it will break the webseed."

One of the things that can break it as well yeah.

In the end the problem is in the NGINX config of the web server which for a minimal amount of users is causing problems.

I could resolve it within a couple hours but I need access to the ip of a person who has trouble downloading the files of the DLC server.

I made some changes to the web server. Can you retry doing some downloads, or this test file: http://rtor.nyx.feralhosting.com/other/test.bin

At a quick test I'm also not seeing the webseeds play nice, but peer-to-peer works as expected.

I reached 42% before the web seed dc'd me...

Removing and adding the web seed again kickstarts it

~500KB/s

* stops the torrent and starts it again

~15MB/s
