Large apbs .dx file downloads fail from web server due to server-side error? #595

@Eo300 can you please investigate this problem?

sobolevnrm commented 4 years ago

Perhaps a temporary fix would be to compress files on server side?

Eo300 commented 4 years ago

From investigating the issue it seems that there's a worker timeout occurring on the server-side storage service. I can lift it to an extent, but ultimately a slow-enough download speed would still experience the same issue.

Regarding compressing files server-side, I can apply that, since it should alleviate some of these troubles in terms of sheer file size.

Compressing the files sounds like a great solution

My current workaround is to download the file via commandline and wget. Download seems to continue upon reconnect.

Thank you @stefanhuber1993 this worked.

Happy to see that's working for now. As for compressing the files server-side, that's now implemented, so future submissions should show the resulting .dx file as .dx.gz.

Thanks for the quick turnaround on this, @Eo300 ! Something for a discussion offline: did you increment version numbers, etc.?
