      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 1:129/215 996b85e5       REPLY: 1097.fidonet_mystic@1:106/987 24215bda       TZUTC: -0500        LV> I'm having a problem getting a QWK packet probably 98% of the time.        LV> There were reports of others having this issue as well but they upgraded        LV> to A46 which claims to have resolved their problem, I don't know if they        LV> ever upgraded to A47 like I have, this was posted on fsxNet. Below are        LV> from logs and other output, it is also at https://pastebin.com/B3mkEELv        LV> if that is easier to read.              What is happening is that when Synchronet takes a while to generate the QWK       packet the FTP data connection times out while waiting. If you notice in the       Synchronet log it takes Synchronet 30 seconds to generate the QWK packet, and       in that time the connection will be lost.              I have tried to update this once before and I did some more work again on it       today to increase it to 60 seconds.              I'll continue to fine tune this but in the meantime if you upgrade to the very       latest version (I am compiling it right now so if you download A47 after       reading this) the version of QWKPOLL in this build should be a little more       understanding in terms of long waits. If you try it please let me know how it       works out for you.              Thank you for the logs particularly representing both sides of the transfer,       that was very helpful!              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2020/11/23 (Windows/64)        * Origin: Sector 7 | Mystic WHQ (1:129/215)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/10 340 123/131 124/5016 129/215       SEEN-BY: 129/305 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 220/50 80 221/0 6 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 201 702 229/100 101 275 310 424 426 452 550 664 981       SEEN-BY: 229/1016 240/5832 249/110 206 307 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 317/3 322/757 342/200 396/45 633/280 770/1 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 3634/12       PATH: 129/215 154/10 280/464 229/101 426           |
