[Solved] Disk full in compression algorithm srep
 

I already opened a thread about this problem but this one for those who have faced this problem & can't find a solution because all solutions in this thread was failed
http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=98146

First of all i rewrite this thread after many tests :D
so basically the problem is one of those
1- you don't have enough memory to handle srep like those who have 4 GB Memory / less & do hard work on pc during the compression
or
2- you are using masked data / Masks methods & have a problem or something wrong with your arc.ini or it's a bug

Solutions
1- Buy a new larger ram if you have 4 GB ram buy another one
2- for masks method use cmd / batch & don't use masks for ex :
arc a -ma9 -ds -lc2000 -ld2000 -di -i1 -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Data\Fireburst.arc -msrlz "I:\1\Fireburst\*" ==> Masks Method
arc a -ma9 -ds -lc2000 -ld2000 -di -i1 -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Data\Fireburst.arc -msrep64+exe+delta+lzma:256mb:max:bt4:128:mc10000 "I:\1\Fireburst\*" ==> no masks
the first one if failed try the second one :)
3- check your arc.ini for any spaces / strange characters & correct it


My story :
I had 6 GB Ram & I Compressed many games without errors
once i sold my old 2 GB Ram the problems begin to appear especially in decompression
So I was opening my FB on Chrome [Free Memory was 2 GB ] & in the same time i was compressing [Srep took about 1.9 GB]
the computer was heavy but no lag :D:D & always decompression failed with disk full error in srep [there was over 100 GB Free Disk space ]
ok now no more FB it's sleeping time so I left my PC & closed all applications
& Left my pc with compressing a game folder [Free ram is 3GB]

I wake up & the compression was finished then i tried to decompress & it was success without any errors although srep uses about 2GB ram But it needs about 3 GB Free Ram to make an archive without errors

Story 2 :
I have RDP to compress larg files so this problem happened on the rdp :( although i have 64 GB ram ?? so after many tries i got it work Just from cmd & not masked methods :)

I know i opened a thread which is related to this one but I think google will archive this one better than the old one which hasn't the solution

EVERYONE knows that when compressing files to just leave PC alone. Do NOTHING else while that process is going on, removes the errors you describe. Easiest solution, whenever compressing files do it at night, when you goto bed, when you get up its done.

I don't know why srep don't say the archive is corrupted or even can't compress the files :confused: but instead it compress all files without any Error but only making a corrupted archive

Or you can just buy more RAM.

Can't find 4 GB Ram to buy in Egypt :D My country is very pooooooooooor

hhhhhhhhhhh wa allahe ma la2y ram 4 giga koll ama aro7 ma7al y2olly mafesh Mafeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh Mafeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh

aswadd & lolaya you BOTH know ENGLISH only forum, either edit posts accordingly or i'll delete them
next time use pm

I never read the rules I only know it from you :D

Another solution ; if you are using masked Data or Masks method & got srep error disk is full this because there is some space or something wrong in your arc.ini
so the solution is very simple Just don't use it & compress via normal methods
for EX :
this from maked data
arc a -ma9 -ds -lc2000 -ld2000 -di -i1 -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Data\Fireburst.arc -msrlz "I:\1\Fireburst\*"
\\\\\\\\\\ arc.ini
srlz = srep+exe2+delta+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:l c8
result is corrupted archive & can't decompress it :(
==============================
from cmd
arc a -ma9 -ds -lc2000 -ld2000 -di -i1 -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Data\Fireburst.arc -msrep+exe2+delta+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000: lc8 "I:\1\Fireburst\*"

no errors during decompression
=====================================
it doesn't happen for all games Just few games that made this problem
so do it manually & it'll work without errors

Ur method idea was really helpful aswadd and I was able to compress/decompress Many games.
But my major problem with WPI Blackbox setup error! kenzo helped me about this script previously but I need a solution about this mate :(
Becoz decompress was success by cmd method but not with setup :confused:
EVEN i am using same tools & arc.ini file for cmd unpack AND for script :rolleyes:
One thing I want to know , Is this need to put yourpassword for bin files in script BECOZ i don't put any password on bin files . So do i need to delete that line yourpassword ? please correct me or suggest buddy :confused:

Don't fill password section and try to use unarc.dll from different sources. I also post a unarc.dll somewhere try to use that one

And try to use this thread

Please this will make the forum a better placed:D

Ok prince ! Actually I am using ur modify script BB 2.5.1 :rolleyes: Now i will check & report :rolleyes:

U mean i have to delete that line or something?

Instead of 'yourpassword' let it be ' '

checking...

And one more thing "disk error" is nothing to do with disk space unless u really have low disk space
Will explain it another time now on phone and kinda uncomfortable typing
