64 Bit & Downloading Maps Issue
-
The only thing that's changed in this area recently was parallelization of map processing. However, that code looks pretty safe to run concurrently.
It would be interesting to see if the map .zip files are really corrupt or if this is caused by code. @MiSC23, could you please attach one of the (smaller) map .zip files with which you are seeing this error?

@prastle I have a new computer, so its not the hard drive which is the error. The errors I receive are through downloading maps through TripleA.
@redrum I cannot upload the maps causing problems as the files are too big here-Europe, Pacific, and Global are the ones that I'm struggling with. I've tried deleting all files and re-downloading them and that has not made any difference.
Followed steps you outlined in several previous messages:
Maps Folder: C:\Users\mcrew\triplea\downloadedMaps

@ssoloff [0_1514339176047_pacific_1942-master.zip](Uploading 4%) which is approx 1,700 kb but receive an error that the entity file is too big. Is there another method to get you the info you need?
It seems it does not matter whether I download directly from GitHub or triplea certain maps have the same error that I encountered when I started this thread. In particular: Europe, Pacific, Civil War, Cold War, Star Trek...

@misc23
the smart people will get back to you soon but you might try deleting everything and starting over. Install java first, then triplea. There is a issue for some users that do triplea first.Doubt this is your problem, but you could try it.

@misc23 What I found was
the new installer auto installed 32 bitrec u install java on clean system or confirm you have newest java
then install triplea
but yes 64 bit caused me probs -
@MiSC23
The issue with file uploads can be fixed rather simple: Our server has limited disk space, so we require users to upload large files to public clouds. There's stuff like Google Drive or Dropbox where you need an account to store files, but there are also temporary file hosters where you don't need to have any account but the files are being deleted after a set amount of time.
Based on your description of the problem it seems to be rather system specific and not a general problem of TripleA, so I'd assume the map file is probably going to be fine, I'd still recommended to upload it to somewhere.
In order to figure out what your specific issue is: Could you post the exact error message?
Is there just a small window telling you something went wrong or does the actual error console with a detailed description pop up? -

@prastle: I have confirmed that I have the latest version of Java. I removed the prior version of TripleA, restarted the computer, and then used the GitHub link to download the 64 bit version. Some more of the maps downloaded correctly this time (than before) but there were several maps did not download again: WWII Pacific, Feudal Japan, Star Trek, Star Wars, etc.

@misc23 Two separate issues
the downloader
uploads here
btw my uploads failed as well
Rec you try to uninstall the maps in ?
with the downloader
and reinstall -
-
@prastle I think you are suggesting uninstalling everything (maps and downloader) and then try again?
-
@misc23 try uninstalling the maps that don't work with the downloader and reinstalling them slowly one at a time.
