File name looses extension in downloaded file name.

[gmctec]

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. Windows 10,
• Browser and version: Chrome Version 94.0.4606.81 (64-bit)
• DownThemAll! version: 4.3.1

Problem: Downloaded filename is different from server filename.
(It looses the date suffix part of the filename)

Example: file_name on server: tomcat.txt.2022-02-14 downloaded file name: tomcat.txt (n)

Have tried Mask is set to: name.ext and name.*

Screenshot uploaded:

Summary Downloaded filename looses the date information, that exists part of the name. Instead, it gets a sequence referencing version numbers of duplicate files with same root name (tomcat.txt)

If there is a known fix or workaround, please advise.
Thank you.

I just tried to reproduce this the hard way.

Generated some file name, just like yours

for m in (10, 11):
    for d in range(1, 30):
        dt = f"2021-{m}-{d:02}"
        with open(f"tomcat-access.log.{dt}", "w") as f:
            print(dt, file=f)

Served the files from localhost. Used DownThemAll! in Chrome.

And... it worked for me.... No idea what is interfering there for you. Maybe some browser option, but I cannot really think of any... maybe another extension (yes, extensions interfere with each other when it comes to downloads, in particular file names. Very annoying)

If you can still reproduce this and can provide more information, please do so.

Thank you for the follow up, and apologies for taking so long to get back to you.

I found something that works. I currently have an extension set to: name..ext.* and though the file names do not have a .txt extension on the web page, they end up with one on the file system. Right now this works for me.

There are other weird problems tho, like some files (elsewhere) get an underscore for a last character (when there is no "_" in the name. (I have a script that takes care of it after download, but will send you the details next week),

Thanks,

On some sites refname.refext.ext helps get the full filename including parts separated by an extra "."
