Change v 1.4.0.110 I
was not able to upload version 109, due to "some change in the Amazon
S3 system with respect to '100 continue's , specifically the lack of
perodically". The last statement is only my interpretation and has not
been proven. These are required for redirection processing when buckets
are created in Europe for about 15 minutes after creation, so its a bit
silly that this should effect the mainstream of operations on
uploads. This is a bit of a quick working hack in case you
suddenly have problems on upload.
Change v 1.4.0.109 Came
across this while trying to synchronise, it did not work. Could
not believe that no one had complained, so I studied this in a lot more
detail than normal. Summary if you use the DB module a. its faster and
b. more importantly there is no problem. The problem occurs on
synchronisation where you are not using the DB module. I normally
always use the DB module and I hope that is the same out there. Anyway
fault now cleared even for non DB mode. The DB mode on synchronisation can be 10-100 times faster and as my grinning wife has just said it works, go away woman
Major fault in hopefully non used mode.
Changes v 1.4.0.108
Bug fix version. Batch control was buggy and the new Copy, Move and
Synch from S3 to S3 were missing. These have been included and the
batch system retested.
Changes v 1.4.0.107 a
Small changes to version 107.
Synchronization of empty folders produced an extra folder is now
fixed. The following change is not a bug but a more natural setting, so
that empty folders are transferred.
'Options' / 'Options' under tab 'Transfer Options' the option 'No Op on Empty Folders' has been unset as default.
+ following
Changes v 1.4.0.107
Display now allows you to select multiple files and display them.
Synchronization
has been tweaked, for instance in dealing with empty folders and the
introduction of Dummy operations on folders. Correction on finding UTC
when synchronizing S3 to S3.
Abort when paused has been fixed.
Tool tips have been added.
Sissle no
longer requires administrators rights, in fact it never did. This is a
legacy of XP where out of laziness all programs were run with
administrators rights and data files were stored in the Program Files
folder. In case I am wrong you can right click on 'Sissle and select
'run as administrator', but note drag n' drop will not work. Note:
Installation still requires Administrator rights to install.
Main New Development
Drag and Drop
to and from explorer has been completed for both Vista / XP. Drag
n' drop from windows explorer has existed for sometime for XP
only.
Operation Navigate
in Sissle to the remote S3 folder where you require operations,
similarly navigate in windows Explorer. Initiate drag n' drop in the
normal way. The only difference is that the operation 'hard disk' to
'S3' is far slower than 'hard disk' to 'hard disk'. Here is some basic advise
Download Large Files Use
Sissle only and select the range button, left arrow with four colored
dots, this will download a file in segments. In case of failure only
the download proceeds from the failed segment.
Upload Large Files Unfortunately Amazon does not provide the corresponding (as above) for uploads. Sissle will show progress which can be reassuring.
Download and Uploading medium sized Files My
own preference is to use explorer to Sissle (and vice versa) for short
operations seconds to a few minutes. Otherwise I prefer Sissle on its
own
