PAR2 fails, but in the end the files are OK.

Post by zion2k »

Hi,

since 2 or 3 month I have several releases with fail the par2 check. "Repairing failed, Repair Failed."
If I double check the files with my Windows PC (Multipar v1.2.9.7) they are ok. Also if I use the sfv files everything seems to be ok.

Debian 9 Stretch
Sabnzbd 2.3.4 [2a113f7]
Multicore Par2 (par2cmdline v0.4)

Code: Select all

Any ideas how to solve this problem? Or anyone else who has similar problems?

What if you check with a (manual) par (and then rar) from the Debian command line? Does that work?

Could you enable Debug logging so we can see the par2 output? Seems like an unexpected error from par2.

It seems as if par2cmdline has problems with 0 byte files. Multipar does not bother those files.

Maybe you can switch to the par2cmdline-mt version? It is more updated, although a bit slower.

Hi,
after missing dependency I went straight to the latest par2 version (v0.8.0). But nothing changed...

Code: Select all

Repair is required.
1 file(s) exist but are damaged.
8 file(s) are ok.
You have 104 out of 104 data blocks available.
You have 19 recovery blocks available.
Repair is possible.
You have an excess of 19 recovery blocks.
None of the recovery blocks will be used for the repair.

Am I right, that I don't have the required recovery files or the recovery files for the .jpg have not been created and par2 is failing because of this.
Multipar on the other hand seems to repair everything where a recovery file is available and all other files are ignored?

At the moment my brain fails of the fact that par2 knows that the .jpg is corrupt and Multipar doesn't?
Is there a difference because Multipar supports Par3?

It seems par2cmdline can't handle empty files. Nothing to do about it but to report a bug to par2cmdline: https://github.com/Parchive/par2cmdline/issues
