bitbybit asked a question in pingdroid.com on April 22, 2009 03:04:
Corrupt/incomplete images triggering ping.fm updatesI noticed while on a recent trip that my images were often being corrupted or otherwise uploaded incompletely to ping.fm, but still triggering repeated bad posts (1 failed upload would often result in numerous bad posts being sent, like it was stuck in some sort of temporary loop). I'd get the error about the update failing, but it would continue to trigger the posts w/links to the corrupted ping.fm photos (anywhere from a completely blank image to 50% or so). Internet coverage was somewhat spotty so I'm sure that had a lot to do with it, but I was able to use the ping.fm email gateway instead without any problems.
I'm curious if it has something to do with the way email is sent vs uploading via the ping.fm api, but thought I'd pass it along to see if you had any ideas on how to fix the problem.
If it's possible, I'd rather have pingdroid fail completely on the update if it notices a corrupt upload somehow, rather than attempt to complete the update.
Thanks!
