This is the core leeching engine. The script fetches the remote file in chunks, supports resuming broken downloads, and bypasses referrer checks.
Designed for shared hosting, rev43 typically consumed less than 64MB of RAM per download thread, making it deployable on budget VPS or even some cPanel shared plans.
| Problem | Workaround |
|---------|-------------|
| Mega.nz fails | Install megatools or use Mega bridge plugin |
| GDrive quota | Use service account JSON in plugins/gdrive/ |
| Download stuck at 0% | Check allow_url_fopen & curl in PHP |
| ZIP > 4GB | Use Split archive option or command line |
Q: Is rev43 the latest?
A: Yes. Original Rapidleech died in 2016. rev43 is the community maintained stable branch.
Q: Can I install on VPS with 1GB RAM?
A. Yes, but large files (>10GB) may need memory_limit = -1 in php.ini.
Q: Where are host plugins?
A. /hosts/ – edit download_class.php to add premium accounts.
Technically, yes. Practically, no.
chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/leech
chmod 777 /var/www/html/leech/files
chmod 777 /var/www/html/leech/tmp
Fix: The host changed their download logic. You must download a newer plugin file from GitHub community forks and replace it in /plugins/host/.
