Title: BUG: Hidden (".name" dirs) directories not being handled properly...
Post by: fstltna on 02.11.2022 21:06:16
I have a app that creates "." directories like ".foodir/test" etc and when jdownloads scans it, it properly ignores the directory and doesn't add it to the database. But when it gets to the file add step it tries to add the files but fails as expected, since the directory doesn't exist in the database. Can you fix it so that the file scan ignores "." folder trees like the directory scan does?

Hi,

QuoteBut when it gets to the file add step it tries to add the files ...
?

Edit:
Okay, I understand now. You have right this is a bug. Will be fixed fast (today or tomorrow). Thanks!

Maybe could you try this fix below?
Copy the (unzipped) file via FTP to this folder: /administrator/components/com_jdownloads/helpers and try afterwards the scan process again. Thanks!
