HTTPGet don`t close file

Hello, seems i found a bug. I have the follow action :

<showProgressDialog>
<explanation>explanation</explanation>
<progressText>progressText</progressText>
<title>title</title>
<actionList>
<httpGet>
<filename>${system_temp_directory}/file.file</filename>

<url>https:/some-url/file.file</url>
<onErrorActionList>
<deleteFile>
<path>${system_temp_directory}/${system_temp_directory}/file.file</path>
<show>0</show>
<ruleList>
<fileExists>
<path>${system_temp_directory}/${system_temp_directory}/file.file</path>
</fileExists>
</ruleList>
</deleteFile>
</onErrorActionList>
</httpGet>
</actionList>
</showProgressDialog>

 

If i close the progress dialog manually i can`t delete file in installationAbortedActionList file will be locked

Hi @Akhotchenkov,

In the <onErrorActionList> the file is still used by the httpGet action. Could you try <deleteFile> after running the <httpGet> action?

 

<deleteFile>
  <path>${system_temp_directory}/${system_temp_directory}/file.file</path>
  <show>0</show>
  <ruleList>
   <fileExists>
    <path>${system_temp_directory}/${system_temp_directory}/file.file</path>
   </fileExists>
 </ruleList>
</deleteFile>

Hi @Akhotchenkov,

The following example works for me on Windows. Could you try it?

        <httpGet>
            <url>https://file-examples-com.github.io/uploads/2018/04/file_example_AVI_1920_2_3MG.avi</url>
            <filename>${system_temp_directory}/sample.file</filename>
        </httpGet>
        <deleteFile>
            <path>${system_temp_directory}/sample.file</path>
            <ruleList>
                <fileExists>
                    <path>${system_temp_directory}/sample.file</path>
                </fileExists>
            </ruleList>
        </deleteFile>

Hi @michieldhont_ Yes this will work, but if this code paste to showProgressDialog, and then cancel it, file will not deleted

 

Try this example project, if you cancel the downloading, ${system_temp_directory}/sample.file will stay in ${system_temp_directory

Hi @Akhotchenkov,

I've reproduced the issue. Could you open a ticket in private support so we can proceed to add it to our bug tracking system?

Regards,
