B2 Filemanager - Upload not working

I noticed yesterday, that I can longer upload files using the Web Interface File Manager.
When I try I get the following screens:

followed by the following several seconds later:

The file I'm trying to upload is only a 3kb text file.
I have tried a number of directories and different files, all with the same result.

I can download, move, copy, rename and delete with no issues, I just cannot upload anything.

this smells a problem with the uplaoder service. Try reboot your B3 and it should work again. Could be caused by several things, for instance problems with the torrent downloader?

Should be resolved in new software versions, what are you on?

It's a B2 by the way, and I'm on version 2.5.0.2.

I only have torrents running between midnight and 8am, to limit my download allocation.
I start and stop it using:

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/filetransferdaemon start
&

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/filetransferdaemon stop
triggered by cron entries. Could this be causing the issue?

ah, this explains. The upload is dependent on ftd running. (filetransferdaemon does not only torrents)

Just realised that myself.

Rebooted, which obviously started ftd, upload works.
Turned off 'Up and Downloads' (obvious what this does now), upload stopped working.

Thanks for your help, Johannes.
