SETUP.EXE (2.194.2.24) Download from Internet - Problem or Feature

[sborc]

Hello,

I download with setup.exe (version 2.194.2.24) everyday a few files, to complett my setup directory.

Everytime I'll take the same mirror (http://programming.cpp14.ac.uk).

Now I see, that there is no remark if the file is downloaded or not. 

Is this a Problem or a Feature.

Thanks

Stephan

The setup.exe session log is written to /var/log/setup.log and
/var/log/setup.log.full.

For downloads, the log files should be written in the local files base
directory.  I just did a download today.  The files were written
correctly and the code that writes the logs hasn't changed between your
version and mine.

You can use a Perl script I've written to remove obsolete files and
consolidate your directories.  It's available in
http://home.ix.netcom.com/~mchase/zip/clean_setup.zip .  You will want a
copy of setup.exe and the latest setup.ini on the CD; the base directory of
the local files tree would probably be the best place.
