Full Version: Download 'xxx': piece n has been corrupted, re-downloading

I have been downloading happily for years and recently tried originating torrents created with Vuze. Mostly they work fine but, in about 20% of cases (and more especially for larger uploads), I get "Download 'xxx': piece n has been corrupted, re-downloading" errors after several hours.

Since I am the originating seed, re-downloading never occurs as no-one else has the affected pieces, so I am wasting bandwidth, time and goodwill. The only idea I have is to withdraw the torrent and start over, which is unsatisfactory.

Despite the error message, the [untouched] files remain in good shape.

Ideas?
