Corrupted part.met Recovery - Unexpected file error while reading part.met

File disappears with the following error message appearing in log.

Error Message: Unexpected file error while reading ###.part.met (): An unknown error occurred while accessing: …

This error differs from the other message “Error: ###.part.met () is corrupt, unable to load file” which I addressed in another post.

My computer shut down without my knowledge and when I switched it on, the download disappeared and a check at the log shows the error message as stated above. I then tried to access part.met and part.met.bak with notepad, both file is corrupted and inaccessible although it is not 0KB. I successfully recovered it by doing the following…

Successfully recovered by using Emule Morph Mod (http://emulemorph.sourceforge.net/)

Solution: 

  1. Download and install Emule Morph Mod if you haven’t got it
  2. Import downloads to your Morph Mod version of emule
  3. Go to downloads.txt and find the file name of your corrupted part.met as displayed in your error log (e.g. 004.part.met ())
  4. Copy the ed2k link by it’s side
  5. Click on the “Tools” icon on your Emule Morph, and click “Paste eD2K Links”
  6. Take note of the file name. Your new download should appear in your Downloads.
  7. Right click on it and click “Imports parts to file…”
  8. Browse to your emule Temp folder
  9. Select your corrupted mets, part file. If your corrupted part.met is 004 then select 004.part
  10. Now your new download should have the all the downloaded parts as your corrupted version
  11. You may now delete the corrupted version’s part.met and part if you want to

Thats all. Post if you have any questions. I would love to hear about it anyway :)
