Html have stopped copying to old files?

Crackerjack · 04-01-2009, 11:33 PM

When I extract league reports tar it is not copying over the old files. When I make reports and upload they did not copy over the old tar, so I did an FTP of it and it copied over but still when extracted they are not writing over the old files?

I assume something at my ISP got screwed up but they say everything is ok and cannot work on code that is not theirs (sigh). Is there anyway I can check my files through accessing my isp account or in FTP to see why its not working and how to fix. BTW this just came up after no problems for 2 seasons.

Are you certain that your game is creating a new .tar file, made of your new set of reports? Have you tried taking one of these new .tar files and extracting it, and seeing what's inside? To me, this sounds like a setting on your server, or in your on-server extraction command, isn't set correctly. Either the files already on your server are not eligible to be copied over, due to some setting; or when you execute the extraction, the extraction process is not set to "overwrite" the existing files.
