    error while hash checking of torrent

    Code:
    nits@nits-desktop:/mnt/Storage/Tors/Incomp$ btdownloadcurses --check_hashes 1 filename.torrent 
    /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/BitTorrent/Storage.py:4: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
      from sha import sha
    These errors occurred during execution:
    [09:37:48] IOError - [Errno 5] Input/output error
    Got this error when I tried hash checking, was downloading the file using rtorrent when there was a sudden powercut and my system shutdown abruptly, tried restarting the torrent and kept encountering problems while restarting.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers

    Looks like the file got corrupted. Tried forcing a chkdsk from the MS side on that NTFS partition by ntfsfix /dev/sda3 but to no avail. Going to let it go let me know if there is a fix for this....

    Seems the file got super corrupted coz of a power cut, So I had to delete the file and restart the torrent.
