I was digging the TXNetFile code in hope of a solution, and i found
this:
TXNetFile::CreateXClient
// Set the timeout (default 999999999 secs, i.e. far, far in the future)
gSystem->Setenv("XRDCLIENTMAXWAIT",
Form("%d",TFile::GetOpenTimeout()));

The file is corrupted, i checked that by copying the file from the dCache
server. How can i check if it is corrupted without opening the file?
It seems that TFile::Open("corruptedFile.root") works, but
TFile::Open("root://.../corruptedFile.root") hangs.

I'm using root version 5.18.00, retried with 5.19.02, i couldnt find
5.19.02b in /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/root
Same effect with 5.19.02 also.

I couldnt get this working:
root [0]
Processing test.cxx...
Error: Can't call TEnv::setValue("XNet.Debug",3) in current scope
test.cxx:2:
Possible candidates are...
*** Interpreter error recovered ***
root [1] .q
I've copied the test.cxx in my public
/afs/cern.ch/user/s/slehti/public/test.cxx
The dCache data is world readable, so anyone can try the script.
Cheers,
Sami
