wget -c restarts from the beginning, there are no specific error...

jcmag replied on May 22, 2009 11:05 to the problem "check if file is well uploaded" in Wuala:

I think this a bad upload, I have the same wrong md5sum on another machine. Actually I think the problem is related to the fact I've overwritten the file though the previous upload was not finished.

But it would be very useful to have the md5sum displayed in the file properties window

check if file is well uploaded

Is there a way to check if a file has been well uploaded on Wuala? I had a problem with a 2.7GB file, I downloaded it on another machine and found a different md5 checksum... :(

HTTP resume

If I use the web interface to download files I can't resume downloads; is there a reason for that? Are your servers configured to not allow resuming?

jcmag replied on May 15, 2009 20:55 to the problem ""download" & "save as" misunderstanding" in Wuala:

what about:
"Download & save on your disk"
"Download in cache"

and for those who don't know how the cache works, they will use the first option, so less trouble...

Don't you use 'save as' to download these large files? What type of files are they? – jcmag, on May 15, 2009 14:28

You know I thought like you ("people are really stupid") but actually I understand better the problem now. The problem is that people are used to p2p software, and in general they "download" files in these softwares then they look for them on their disk (like in emule, files are downloaded in the incoming folder). Here, when they don't read any wuala help, they try to use it like their other p2p software... and get lost.

Is the "download" menu really necessary? Personally, I use only "open" when it is photos, documents etc. and "save as" when I want to retrieve other files...

jcmag replied on May 15, 2009 06:52 to the problem ""download" & "save as" misunderstanding" in Wuala:

Yep it's a solution.

btw what is the use of the "download" menu?

jcmag replied on May 14, 2009 22:35 to the problem ""download" & "save as" misunderstanding" in Wuala:

Actually I wonder if it isn't the "download" menu that is the real problem; it has an arrow and a shortcut so it is more visible in the context menu. I think people see it before the "save as" menu.
And the problem is that you click on "download" and then... what? "So the file is downloaded, I should find it somewhere on my disk..." and they start looking in the wuala folder :(

"download" & "save as" misunderstanding

Some people who are new to Wuala use the "download" menu to download files and then they go to the Wuala folder to find their files; then they only find strange files, and try to rename them etc.
I don't know how it could be improved but several users reported to me this issue, so I think it's important to take it into account.

Open several photos at once

When I want to see my friends' photos I select several photos at once and click on "open", but I got this error:
....Another file is currently being streamed. Please wait until the other file is not being accessed any more and try again.

Another problem is if I have downloaded all photos, then I select only three of them to view only these ones I see all other photos I downloaded (I'm on ubuntu 8.04, photos are displayed with eye of gnome)

Is there a feature on your todo list to improve viewing photos, like a new "view slideshow" menu that would automatically download all photos in a folder and launch an app to see them (the default OS photo viewer could be sufficient in a first time)

I did not change anything but it works now... ;)
I can browse my files and my friends' file, I can create new documents etc. but Wuala still says "File system integration is not ready" as before...

yep it's fixed!

jcmag replied on April 23, 2008 06:31 to the problem "mount nfs failed" in Wuala:

yes it was that ;) (I don't need a nfs server on this machine, I don't remember when this nfs server was installed...)
But it still does'nt work, and the trace tells me:

Changing computer

I'm going to change my computer, is it possible to keep my connection time?
Or it will start inevitably again from 0?

Folder exists and I've permissions.
Using -mount doesn't change anything...

Does a manual mount work for you?

jcmag replied on April 19, 2008 10:58 to the problem "mount nfs failed" in Wuala:

I tried a manual mount because it doesn't work automatically.
Here is my /etc/fstab file:
localhost:/wuala /media/disk/wuala/direct nfs defaults,users,noauto,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr,nolock,soft

after "sudo mount -a", Wuala still says:
Portmap active OK
Service started OK
Volume mounted KO
File system integration working KO

and the log:
Debug log initialized

Starting server NFS ...
