#12388 new Bug report
FZ client progress indicator is misleading when downloading files reached via symlinks
| Reported by: | ubremer | Owned by: | |

| Priority: | normal | Component: | FileZilla Client |

Description
Hi,
example:
user@host:/volume/one$ ls -l *ide*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user group 98 Feb 10 09:16 image.ide.ova -> /volume/two/image.ide.ova
when downloading this "file" the progress indicator does immediately jumps to "> 100.0%" and "00:00:00 left" for the rest of the download.
I think this is because the base of this calculation is based on the 'stat' of the symlink instead of doing a 'stat' on the actual file before downloading.
Regards
Ulf

Hi Tim,
as I meant to illustrate with the ls -l output: The size of the symbolic link is benign (98 bytes in this case). Hence my suggestion to get the actual size of the file before its transfer is started.

Ulf

What file size is reported in the remote directory listing?
