Failed to read the dump file #18

Open jzatarain opened 5 years ago

jzatarain commented 5 years ago

I just downloaded the app for the first time, and when I opened it and searched for something, I only got an error saying: "Failed to read the dump file. Possible corruption or file doesn't exist." What do I need to do to work this out?

Yeah i got the same issue : i tried many way to get .csv dump files and i tried to update with the option in the software and i tried all of this with a vpn for torrent and each time it told me "Dump file invalid. Mismatching header" or Failed to read the dump file. Possible corruption of file doesn't exist."

Hi there, I could solve this issue using the "Update dump file" option in the "Tools" menu. Hope this works.

The site piratebay.org seems down currently, is there another way to get the dump file?

A bit late, but you may be able to find an individual backup here: https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://thepiratebay.org/static/dump/csv/torrent_dump_full.csv.gz

Yea, you can try this:

Hello,

Can someone please tell me how to decode the HASH(B64) column or refer me to a documentation?

$ grep slackware torrent_dump_full.csv.gz
2008-Dec-17 08:12:18;ZA/oTGE8F/ZjVR0hhommTorr6r4=;"slackware-12.2-dvd-iso";4154949894

I've tried to decode with $ echo ZA/oTGE8F/ZjVR0hhommTorr6r4= | base64 -d which didn't give a reasonable result.

TIA

Let's take slackware-12.2-dvd-iso

$ grep "slackware" torrent_dump_full.csv 
2008-Dec-17 08:12:18;ZA/oTGE8F/ZjVR0hhommTorr6r4=;"slackware-12.2-dvd-iso";4154949894

Following size (4154949894) and date (2008-Dec-17 08:12:18), I guess this is the torrent https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=4582957

How do I go from 640FE84C613C17F663551D218689A64E8AEBEABE to ZA/oTGE8F/ZjVR0hhommTorr6r4=?

BachoSeven commented 2 years ago

oh got it, to get the hash you just need to convert the raw decoded bytes to hexadecimal with xxd:

base64 -d <<< ZA/oTGE8F/ZjVR0hhommTorr6r4= | xxd -p
GreenLunar commented 2 years ago

Great! Thank you. How did you figure this out?

BachoSeven commented 2 years ago

The output was garbled bytes so I tried :)

Btw, if you place the hash in a base64 decoding website they automatically do this, but GNU base64 doesn't.
