There is a new 140 build for linux...
Also make sure to send the commands from a basic shell.
For example when I start wuala with mc (midnight commander) or do send commands to wuala from such a subshell, then the wuala output seems to get lost

there _is_ no other wuala running on the System. I have the same behavior (see: http://wua.la/Wuala+Community/Bugs/In... ... wrote in german).

Also a full reinstall of wuala did not solve the Problem.

Obviously there seems to be no possibility to create an account with the commandline-tool (yet).
Maybe you could use another computer with 32-bit-architecture to create the account and uninstall wua.la after that. Once you've created your account on the other machine you can login using the commandline-tool on your Ubuntu Linux.

Another possibility would be to download Knoppix with 32-bit-architecture (or similiar Live-CDs), boot it from the CD, just install wua.la to RAM, run the GUI-Version, create your account and reboot into your "normal" system.

The intention was to get help configuring the already running instance. So yes, there was one instance already running, which it somehow did not detect other than with the apparently recognized "login" command. – Deelkar, on July 16, 2008 22:54

Net bind -> allready in use usually means another process already has taken that ip+port. Are you sure there is no other wuala running on that system ? ps -A aux | grep java

Same problem here:
Wuala shows 889 MB, on HDD used 1,77 GB.

Wuala Version is 448

ok so now we know that on windows the %temp%\wuala\ folder is constantly in use, thats ok. all i was asking for was information and documentation if this was proper behaviour of wuala.

but then again, there are these old folder structures in %programfiles%\caleido\wuala\data\temp\

what about that? is that still being used and needed? the uploading, downloading and parts/chunks were being handled there in the past. why is there a million files in there especially in the upload and download directories there.

and especially the upload dir in %temp%\wuala\upload\ is also filled with little chunk-files

this doesnt make sense. i really dont like chaos on my computer and if wuala has actually changed its behaviour and is using the %temp% rather then %programfiles%, why not cleaning up one of the two and migrating the appropriate files over to the real directory.

i have multi hundred megabytes of chunk-files in the old %programfiles%\caleido\wuala\data\temp\upload\ and also .\download\ in there.

:(

p.s. the filedates were from feb2008 and apr2008 in the programfiles temp-are in up and download, so i deleted all that crap in there and removed the directories right back to the temp level.

guess it was trash wuala never cared to remove. now thats real windows monopolist-like behaviour. filling storage areas with useless stuff or never actually caring to properly clean up your space you have once been using.

welcome to the windows world. wuala seems to have adopted all the best habits from other windows programs, installers and even microsoft themselves.

congratulations. way to go. thanks.

Some versions ago, we decided to use the system's temp folder for temporary stuff. You can safely delete everything in there as long as Wuala isn't "analyzing file x" in the status bar. We recommend to close Wuala before doing so. In theory, the temporary files should be deleted automatically (we call file.deleteOnExit when we create them, so Java should automatically delete them when Wuala shuts down, but that doesn't seem to work reliably). Do you think it is good to use the systems temp folder for temporary things or should we rather put all of Wuala's data at the same place?

it might have to do with synergy effects from uploading the same file twice to wuala (not me doing it twice, but me and another guy) and me starting later to upload, while the other guy had way less upload bandwidth. (so the file "suddenly" worked, when he finally finished uploading)

This seems to have cleared itself up, interestingly this happended about a day *after* I permanently disconnected the uploading computer.

Hi Deelkar,

Can you share one of these files with me? This seems to be a serious problem we would like to investigate. My Wuala username is (what a surprise!) "Roger.

Wir überlegen uns immer wieder wie wir dem Bedürfnis von einem integrierten Chat/Forum besser nachkommen könnten. Leider fehlen uns momentan die Ressourcen hier etwas neues, eigenes zu implementieren.

Der nächste Schritt wird eine Erweiterung des User Profiles mit zusätzlichen Kontaktdaten sein (siehe dazu auch Ideas in der Wuala Gruppe). Dies würde dann zu zusätzlichen Kontaktoptionen beim Benutzer führen (denke da steht Jabber in der Pole-Position).

Für Gruppen stellen wir uns einen Group Chat vor (sowas http://www.skype.com/allfeatures/grou..., aber eben nicht Skype und vorallem besser ;)) sowie die bewährten Kommentare. Bessere Ideen dazu sind natürlich jederzeit willkommen.
