cannot find the file index.html #199

Closed kittuar closed 5 years ago

kittuar commented 5 years ago

after leaving my computer on for two days running, I wake up this morning to find that hey! my computer restarted during the night, but everything's fine, and it seems like all the posts downloaded are there.

however, when searching for the index.html file, both manually and using the search function, it seems that the index.html is nowhere in sight. am I missing something? was the restart the problem? do I have to do it again to make it work?

please advise.

There's a possibility that tumblr-utils hit an exception before it finished, so it didn't save the index (which is the last step). Did you see it complete successfully? Regardless, try running it on one post (pass -n1 as an argument) and see what it does. If it succeeds it should re-save the index file using the posts it has already saved.

after leaving my computer on for another night doing the exact same thing, suddenly, everything worked, I have the index file, yadda yadda.
