Installation Prozilla (Linux Download Accelerator) on Ubuntu 8.10

Prozilla software is one of my favorite download accelerator in Ubuntu Linux, in addition to having a graphical display mode (ProzGUI) prozilla also has a version that works in text mode "console" linux ... this is more fast and can run in background on the remote machine to your Linux .

FEATURES:

• Supports FTP & HTTP
• Supports Resume Download
• Multiple connections and configuration of connections
• Support for FTP search and choose the fastest server automatically
• Used restricted maximum bandwidth (bps / bytes per second)

INSTALLATION

Installing from the debian packages are already available

Installing from source code

In this way we can do the installation Prozilla source code from the new version.
install the required libraries for the configuration process:

download ncurses : ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/

$wget -c ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/ncurses-5.7.tar.gz

extract the downloaded:

$tar -xzvf ncurses-5.7.tar.gz

move to extract directory

$cd ncurses-5.7

$./configure
$make
#sudo make install

$cd ..

install gettext

$sudo apt-get install gettext

download prozilla : http://prozilla.genesys.ro/downloads/prozilla/tarballs/

$wget -c http://prozilla.genesys.ro/downloads/prozilla/tarballs/prozilla-2.0.4.tar.bz2

extract prozilla :

$tar -xf prozilla-2.0.4.tar.bz2
$cd prozilla-2.0.4
$./configure
$make

if error :

solution :

Looks like the problem of error occurs because the compatibility of the compiler the GNU C / C + + latest version, to avoid this error edit the file src / download_win.h at line number 55:

void DL_Window::print_status(download_t * download, int quiet_mode);

replace with :

void print_status(download_t * download, int quiet_mode);

-K = 10: 10 connections to download.
-Max-bps, = 20 000: limit the maximum bandwidth consumption of 20 KB / s

Example download command:

$proz -r http://www10.indowebster.com/11b81118c6d71d2b8d14425928ea99ad.avi

AUTOMATION DOWNLOAD

By using bash script we can automate downloads from an input list of urls that we will download.

create a file with the name proses.txt

$nano proses.txt

fill with download url link, a url a row.

save the file..

create an empty file with a name finish.txt

$nano finish.txt

create bash script file download.sh

$nano download.sh

copy and paste the example script below:

#######################################################
#!/bin/bash

kb=0 #batas bandwith maksimal dalam KB/s, utk 0 berarti tidak di limit
in=proses.txt

while [ `wc -l $in | cut -d " " -f 1` != 0 ]; do
read line < $in
if [ $kb = 0 ]; then
proz -r $line;
else
bps=`expr ‘(’ $kb ‘)’ ‘*’ 1000`;
proz -r –max-bps=$bps $line;
fi

echo $line >> finish.txt
sed -i ‘1 d’ $in; #menghapus baris dari file masukan (proses.txt)

done
#######################################################

to run the command:

$screen sh download.sh

press "Ctrl + A, D" to hide in the background.

for monitoring the download process:

$screen -r
