Check to make sure the FTP program you used to upload the files is set to "binary" mode. If you try to upload .shn or .flac files in "ASCII" mode the files will fail the MD5 check. ASCII is the standard format for encoding plain text files (actually a subset of binary), while binary is used to encode almost all other types of files. More information on binary vs. ASCII can be found here. If this does not solve the problem, be sure that all the file names in the MD5 file match the .

MD5 files contain checksums, strings of characters used to uniquely represent a file. These checksums enable users to verify that music files downloaded correctly. A recommended tool for creating these files is MD5summer. Please note that before uploading the MD5 created with this tool you should open the MD5 in a text editor and remove the top 3 lines so the first signature is now flush with the top of the file.

MD5 cheksums files are not exclusive to SHN files, in fact, an MD5 checksum can be used to ensure the accuracy of any data file (e.g. .doc, .mp3, .mpeg). Some seeders produce MD5 checksums for their WAV files, as well as the SHN files. This is just an extra level of protection to ensure exact copies of the original WAV files are being burned from the SHN files. Checking a WAV file with a MD5 cheksum is no different than checking a SHN file.

The WAV MD5 checksums are ignored by our robot. Do not worry if you see that the WAV MD5 checksums fail, the shows will be imported as soon as possible.

The system currently only sends emails when MD5 files are included. This means that, if you're uploading FLAC files, you still need to generate and include an MD5 file if you want to receive informational emails about the failures. A recommended tool for creating these files is MD5summer. Please note that before uploading the MD5 created with this tool you should open the MD5 in a text editor and remove the top 3 lines so the first signature is now flush with the top of the file.

It's set to blind mode because we want to avoid hackers from uploading warez and cracked software to our FTP. If you are not sure whether all the files have been correctly uploaded you can contact Crown or Monty.

No, because not everyone wishes to share the files they upload with everyone else. This way zSHARE can be used to share files with anyone you choose to, as well as keep it for yourself as a backup or to download from anywhere in the world.

The only restrictions are for pornography, nudity, sexual images and any kind offensive material, and, of course, copyrighted material. Please refer to our TOS for more info on zSHARE terms of service.

Yes. You can upload multiple check-issue files to SecurePayWEB to be converted into a single positive pay file for download.

Once the files are successfully uploaded, the system automatically transfers them into your Unfinished Files area. Once they are transferred the system also deletes them from your FTP account, so you don't have to bother with them once they are uploaded.

Not necessarily. IIS is our web server and it operates out of cache, which means it keeps all the websites in its memory. It refreshes that memory every fifteen minutes. If you have waited 15 minutes and you still can't see the changes, access the site in FTP and see if the new files and folders are there.

If you decide to sell your tracks, everything you've uploaded will be available for sale. (return to top)

original song: After uploading your song to Project Opus, it will be verified to ensure that it meets our technical requirements. Upon approval, the song will then be transcoded into all three audio formats to ensure your music has access to the widest possible audience. Your song will then be available for fans to search, preview as a 128kbs track, and purchase.

Yes, a file that you create, rename or upload that has the same file name as another file will override this file. Many parts of the program will notify you if you are overriding another file, but not everything, so check your files against the file name before uploading. One of the great features of HOMEPAGE-HOST II is that you have the ability to change your password, name, email address and site name/description.

The file appender that comes with Log4perl, the Log::Log4perl::Appender::File manpage, will open a specified log file at initialization time and will keep writing to it via a file handle. In case the associated file goes way, messages written by a long-running process will still be written to the file handle. In case the file has been moved to a different location on the same file system, the writer will keep writing to it under the new filename.

The second reason is that you have not named you homepage index. Also the index file must be exposed within the htdocs folder.

If our default index.html, "This domain is parked at: ClintHost.com," has not been replaced by another index page, then anyone going to yourdomain.com will still see that page instead of your home page. This is the order in which the web server looks for a page to put up as the "home" page (e.g. index.html, index.shtml). Just delete the index.html file and anything after it in this list will then come up automatically. Notice that "home.
