I did make a copy. I was trying to make the point that I can't access them in my user folders using W:\ and let other people access them in the group through W:\ without copying.

Hi Habasch, thanks for reporting this bug. It is fixed with todays update!

Roger replied about 6 hours ago to the problem "FSI - Mysql Administrator" in Wuala:

Hi Deathbob,

I just made a test with MySQL Administrator 1.2.12 und a very small dataset. I had no problems, backup was successfully written to my Wuala account.

How large ist your backup? If it is huge, does it work with less data? What is your OS?

Roger replied about 6 hours ago to the discussion "can i se who download my world files?" in Wuala:

No this is not possible. Even we as the service provider do not have such statistics.
All what you have is the "View" counter which indicates how often other users accessed your files

Roger replied about 6 hours ago to the idea "Directory Hard Links in Groups" in Wuala:

@Patrick: you made most likely a copy and not a link.

@Patrick2000: With the current solution you don't have to think about access rights. So its much simpler for most users. Your idea is much more complicated as you have to adjust the access rights for each new group member.

Hi,

No, there is no web interface: http://getsatisfaction.com/wuala/topi...

Unison or rsync both don't work with the filesystem integration feature.

It takes a few hours to even process the differences (even though there shouldn't be many at all) and it goes idle every couple minutes. Once it finally sees all the differences (many hours later) it doesn't allow for propagating changes. I've included a couple screenshots to show my errors. Thanks!

This one shows how some just have red "x"s and won't even try to propagate and the bottom one shows how it's supposed to look so far.

This pic shows the error I get when I try to propagate changes

And this one shows the process errorring out

I hope this helps a little bit in explaining the problem I'm having with syncing a local folder with a Wuala NFS share. Thanks for your time!

Patrick2000 replied 3 days ago to the idea "Directory Hard Links in Groups" in Wuala:

Oh - ok! Thanks, Roger, for your reply. I used "copy link". I just checked and the behaviour is exactly as you described: I tried to make a link in Group Folder to one of my shared folders. This behaves the same way like links to private folders. Well, for me it's ok like that, I'd only suggest that wuala should give me an error/info message when pasting the link, and tell me what it's doing (copying files) - i thought it was a hard link.

I wanted to link to one of my shared folders, that i'm shareing whith almost everybody of that group. So I'd actually be even hapier if it did, what i wanted and create a regular soft link (which would then eventually be inaccessible to some unauthorised guests, but this sould be the concern of the owner/creator of the link to set up appropriate access rights in that case).

A comment on the question "Files corrupted by iTunes?" in Wuala:

Yes these are my files and I have write permission. Would it be possible to have an optional read only integration? I would rather iTunes not be able to modify anything. – paf0, 3 days ago

shanepardue replied 4 days ago to the question "Wuala, Filesystem Integration, and Ubuntu" in Wuala:

Well, I tried this same tactic on a different machine on a different (faster) network, still with ubuntu, and it ran perfectly. I believe it had to do with internet connection. Once I pulled 10 songs from a folder, only about 4 actually came over, the transfer would stop and any reference to that folder on the nfs share only showed those 4 songs. I'll see if I can't reproduce the problem when I'm back at that network.

Thanks Roger!

can't reproduce it either here. at least with the current version, everything seems fine -- we'll deploy that soon.

bagelcat replied 4 days ago to the question "Files corrupted by iTunes?" in Wuala:

i could not reproduce it with itunes on mac. When metas or tags are changed via itunes, wuala delelte the original file and upload it again - completely.

as fas as i noticed by now.. well. haven ́t heared via itunes since the last update. maybe something changed..

Roger replied 4 days ago to the question "Files corrupted by iTunes?" in Wuala:

Hi paf0,

We are really sorry for that. Your assumption is right - it looks like iTunes tried to update the mp3 file. But instead of updating some parts, Wuala deleted the original file content and wrote only the updated mp3 tags.

A few days ago, we found a bug which could be directly related to your problem. Todays update contains this bugfix and I hope it will also fix your issue (as I could not reproduce your problem, I cannot test it..).

Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do :(

Edit: I assume these are your files and you have write permissions?

Roger replied 4 days ago to the question "Wuala, Filesystem Integration, and Ubuntu" in Wuala:

Hi shanepardue,

Only bypassing the portmapper does not work with ubuntu (at least with 7.10, I have to figure out if this is still an issue with 8.04). So this is only an issue if there is another NFS server running on your system. As you got the nfs share mounted, you have another problem.

What is the status of the nfs share after you try to pull in some songs? Is the file system integration still working or is it broken and you have to restart Wuala? Are the first few songs playable in your media player?

Roger replied 4 days ago to the question "Change Log avaiable?" in Wuala:

Hi Marcel,

Thanks for your input. A simple versioning system as you propose would definitively be useful. It is on our wishlist.

Roger replied 4 days ago to the problem "Linux: wuala won't start, NoClassDefFoundError SWT" in Wuala:

No, there is no external version check. But you can subscribe to our blog: http://wua.la/en/blog/. We will announce the 64bit Linux version as soon as we are ready!

Patrick replied 4 days ago to the idea "Directory Hard Links in Groups" in Wuala:

What I'm really having trouble with is this, I have a about 7000 files uploaded, but when I change the tags in one folder, it doesn't change in the other. Same with thumbnails.

chengas123 replied 4 days ago to the problem "Linux: wuala won't start, NoClassDefFoundError SWT" in Wuala:

That is absolute awesome news. File system integration for x86-64 Linux will have me using Wuala everyday. Is there a version check for the Linux version so that I can tell when a newer version is out?
