Tag Leute,
jedes mal wenn ich Wuala starte, Kommt kurz der Login / Willkommen Screen und das Tray Icon. Nach ca 1sek stürzt das Programm ab. Ohne Fehlermeldung oder sonst was. Ich hab schon versucht es zu de/reinstallieren, neugestartet hat aber nichts gebracht.
Mein System: WinXP Pro SP3 mit den neusten Updates.
Was kann ich machen?

hallo,

hab das ganze zwar schon als frage gepostet aber nun wächst es sich langsam zum problem aus:

trotz der meldung
'... akzeptiert eingehende Verbindungen.
Gratulation, Ihre Verbindung ist für das Tauschen von Speicherplatz geeignet!'
fällt der graph unter den 'schwellenwert' auf 16 % online-zeit und das macht mich sehr traurig ... war ja schon fast bei 22 % ... nun ist seit tagen das speicher-tauschen nicht mehr möglich.
es ist mir ja auch möglich durch die wuala-welt zu surfen, daten rauf- und runterzuladen ...
bin also 100%ig online! trotzdem sinkt der online-graph gleichbleibend seit tagen stetig gen keller ...

help blees!

Today I cleared my cache and all of my files were gone, too. That's bad, because my own files get maintained rather regulary, and when they're gone from my account, who guarantees me that my whole file can be reconstructed from the pieces that are in the wild.

so there should be 2 "clear cache" buttons. one for the things i uploaded and the other one for the stuff i downloaded from others. I need the second type of button 1000 times the occasions iI need the first type

hi all!

hope someone can help me! =)

Seit 21. Mai stürzt Wuala unter MAC OS 10.4.11 sofort nach automatischem Update bei Programmstart vor dem Login-Dialog ab. Nur in Leopard funktioniert es noch, aber mein Leopard Laptop ist selten online, also geht dort das Speicher-tauschen nicht.

Auch das Löschen des Verzeichniss: WualaSharedData hilft nichts. Alles lief einwandfrei bis 20 Mai 2008 erst mit dem letzten Update vom 21.Mai gibt es laut Release Notes ein Feature: Mac (Leopard only). Kann es an genau diesem Leopard Feature liegen, dass nun ständig Abstürze kommen? gibt es irgendeine Möglichkeit wieder auf die ältere Version vor dem 20. Mai zurück zu gelangen, weil mir mein Speicher-tauschen von 20 GB zu 95% Online laut Wuala seit dem 21. Mai täglich verfällt ich bin schon runter auf 14 GB nach nur 10 Tagen. Wenn der Fehler noch langeunbehoben ist, dann verliere ich auch den rest von meinem Online-Speicher (mein Wuala-Account lautet: RK_Voila)

Client does not respect OS theme colors - I see white text on a white background, and cannot read it without changing to a different OS theme.

sometimes wuala is missing its tray icon (win32). sometimes when auto-logon to windows xp (for example autologin with tools like powertoys/tweakui) is activated, the wuala trayicon cant be created/registered as the traybar (explorer.exe components or such) havent been started yet.

im not into win32 api details, but i think i remember that with at least winxp and later windows builds new methods and calls have been implemented into windows to recreated/redraw/register the tray icons and tray-related stuff in case explorer.exe / desktop crashes or restarts and things like that.

please make wuala work properly with the windows tray area or at least add a real quit/shutdown icon on the wuala logon window, as wuala can only be exited properly with rightclick on the traybaricon and "exit" there for example when wuala is logged out. when the traybar icon is missing, there is only the really unclean and hardcore killing way of the wuala.exe process left for quitting wuala, which isnt really nice i suppose.

also, wuala doesnt react properly to wm_quit message that i tried to send with process.exe tool from beyondlogic guys.

C:\>process -q wuala.exe

wuala.exe (PID 832) has been closed successfully.

so maybe you guys can add proper wm_close message handling of the wuala main app, or fix the traybar/trayicon handling or add a real shutdown/exit function also to the logon-window or the main wuala window too.

would be great thanks.

hi there,

a main problem with the wuala project as whole is, that there is far too little information on technical details, far too little documentation and real information given by the developers.

people often wonder why the wuala software behaves this or the other way, search for solutions that are sometimes no real problems if the behaviour would be properly documented.

i started up some older build (winxp) wuala client after a while of downtime and it upgraded itself.
after logging in to the wuala network (username) the wuala client now works heavily on the wuala database files in probably reoganisation tasks (fragmentsxx.db and COMP-fragmentsxx.db files being messed with the whole time)

anyways so it literally took ages for this client to finish, and the connection status icon was yellow all the time. only after a long while, and when finally the insane diskactivity has finished, the connection status icon went green again.

ctrl+alt+d _shownetworkstats displayed that it wasnt connected to any supernodes during this period, hence the yellow icon i presume.

what makes me wonder if this is a neccessary behviour, that the client cant properly connect to the network until its finished with its database overhaul. maybe some multithreading designs could help, or maybe its just really the need to bring the database into a consistant and up-to-date state again before being able to add and fetch chunks of data again to and from it.

it would really be great if the wuala team could document its piece of software much more in detail.
