Rclone: Transfers fail with http remote and .txt/.html files

[eemailme]

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

When copying items from an http remote, some .txt and .html files fail to transfer with the error:
corrupted on transfer: sizes differ 0 vs XXXXXX

This is only happening with plaintext files (but not every one of them.)
It occurs when using Google Drive and a local dir as the destination.

I noticed in Google Drive's trash, the deleted file is the correct size. So it seems to not realize that the size is actually correct and gets reported a size of 0 for some reason, assuming the transfer failed.

What is your rclone version (eg output from rclone -V)

rclone v1.38

• os/arch: windows/amd64
• go version: go1.9

Also tried with:
rclone v1.40

• os/arch: linux/amd64
• go version: go1.10

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

Windows 10x64, Ubuntu 16.04x64

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

http

Rclone config

[stuff]
type = http
url = https://the-eye.eu/public/rom/Amiga/GameBase%20Amiga%20v1.6/Extras/Instructions/S

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone --config=test.conf -vv copy stuff: stuff

A log from the command with the -vv flag (eg output from rclone -vv copy /tmp remote:tmp)

I'm doing --ignore-size for now to get around this issue.

I've fixed this here

https://beta.rclone.org/v1.40-086-gb8381408/ (uploaded in 15-30 mins)

Please let me know if it doesn't work for you - I tried it on your remote config and it fixed it for me :-)
