Onetime downloads under unstable internet connections?

[andneuma]

Hey there, another question: We've encountered that plik removes a Onetime-Download once the download started. In case of a broken connection the download is not available any more for a re-transfer. Is that expected behaviour?

best, Andi

Hello,

This is indeed the expected behavior once you've started to download a one-shot upload file it's over whatever if you succeed to read everything or not. However I totally get your point.

I'm not sure that we should change this behavior as it would mean that one could read the file until the byte before the last byte without changing the status of the file.

Hello camathieu, thank you for your reply, I can as well see your point! As far as I understand your concern is, that one could download a one-shot upload multiple times. We think that probably the common scenario would be a connection break. Would it be plausible to configure different behaviors of the the backend here?

For 1.3 we will have guarantees to have only one download at the same time for on shot files. We'll just rollback the file status If the copy didn't successfully go through.
