NC beta not uploading photos/videos

First and foremost I’m not on the latest beta because:

Logs are empty, upload queue is empty and when I take a photo or screenshot, absolutely nothing happens.

Thoughts?

Android 6, Vodafone Smart Platinum 7 (Alcatel)

cc @tobiasKaminsky since he has done the upload implementation (I did the UI part). We made some fixes in the latest release regarding uploads, service starts, so this should work with version 20161111. Will have to further investigate if 20161111 doesn’t resolve this issue.

Updated to 20161215 - it still won’t auto-upload on any folder I’ve selected with my 6.0.1 Marshmallow version.

Combined with the random failure to upload on the 1.4.0 release and the inability to autoupload on the beta, I’m having to use both versions to properly interact with my server at the moment :slight_smile:

Do you see anything related in the beta app’s log file? Again cc @tobiasKaminsky

EDIT: there will be a new beta, which will “just” add a new PR no other fixes since I haven’t had the time to look into this matter, just mentioning to not get any false hopes up due to a new beta release :’(

Hello,
it may be that android NC app version 20170117,
make no automatic upload from the smartphone to the cloud?
Have used before version 1.4.0, since it worked perfectly, but this version has unfortunately no photo preview.
Thanks :slight_smile:

Again cc @tobiasKaminsky

No no, I am still alive, but a little bit busy at the moment.
What are the problems?
@lukass2000 says

  • no automatic upload from the smartphone to the cloud
  • has unfortunately no photo preview

@JasonBayton has problems with videos?

The app is watching the specified folders for any (exl. temp, hidden files) files and uploads them. So it is not a difference if video or photo.

Photo preview is a completely separate thing and we changed nothing in the last time…

-normaly (also in the stable version) i activate the auto-upload and select/activate the camera folder.
if i make now a new photo, it was uploaded automaticly in NC.
in the beta version does that not work :frowning:
-photo preview is working great in the beta version.
my question was if this great preview function also adopted in the stable version?

Greetings :slight_smile:

Ditto, it’s enabled for uploading on multiple folders for me (screenshots, WhatsApp, etc), but it doesn’t upload anything.

I am also affected by this issue. This what my log looks like. Maybe someone can make sense out of it (auto-upload is active btw):

Updated today on latest Beta Version 20170130.
Pity, still no upload

Hi to everyone,

I’ve the same problem with beta 20170130 and with official playstore version 1.4.1

My app upload automatically Facebook folder but not the Camera folder (when i take a photo nothing happen , when i dowload an image from Facebook this one was sent to nexcloud fine).

I’m testing on Xiaomi Mi5 , miui version 8 (android 7.0).

I’ve not found any log to check, where i can find it ?

Thanks in advance.

The log is only available in the beta client (menu->settings->at the bottom). Mario is working a lot on the auto upload these days so one of the upcoming releases of the beta version should improve this feature a lot :slight_smile:

Ok, found the log, thanks.

Good news, beta 20170206 appear to be working on autoupload on miui 8 (android 7).
I hope this improvement soon in the release too.
Great job Mario!

@niki77 if it also works for other users too it will be part of the upcoming Bugfix release 1.4.2 :rocket:

Unfortunately it isn’t respecting my custom folder locations and instead automatically uploading to an instant upload folder it created in the root.

But it works! Except this:

V 20170206

Thank you for testing this. Can you please send open an issue with the logs? I’ll make sure to look into it.

Done and done thanks!
