Brand new installation, and the first thing I tried to upload was my Alfred Preferences file. It’s a bundle (basically a directory) it’s only 25Mb and has 2,385 individual files in the bundle
I’ve tried several times, but it always gives me the error “Failed to upload”
UPDATED: Changed subject to ‘Failed to index file’ as that is the specific error I’m getting
Hi,
can you check if there are corresponding errors when show file sync errors?
I tried again this AM and looked through the logs Failed to index file is the specific error it seems

One additional data point is that SeaFile Client handled the file just fine, it’s just SeaDrive having the issue
Hi,
which version of seadrive are you using?
3.0.8
(extra characters so I can post)
Hi,
can you check if the file recorded in the log exists? If it exists, what is the type of the file and is it a normal file? (Such as: /Users/johnsturgeon/Library/Containers/com.seafile.seadrive.fprovider/Data/tmp/13A4A89B-7ACA-484C-849F-846A8DDD3379)
It could be that the directory you are uploading from contains some files of special type and this part of files cannot be uploaded.
Also, are you able to upload other directory?
It’s quite possible that the file is something that SeaDrive cannot handle well (which is unfortunate) It is a mac application preferences bundle file for the Alfred app.
Since this is a very important file and I need to trust the syncing, I already moved on to Seafile Client (which does work fine).
I’m going to try again this morning. I’ll do a bit of a debugging with all the sub folders, removing one folder at a time until it syncs, then see if I can determine what in that sub folder is causing the issue.
I scanned all the files for illegal characters and can find none.
Quick follow up. I’ve removed files one at a time from the ‘bundled’ folder Afred.alfredpreferences and each subfolder still syncs perfectly but the bundle ‘file’ (really now just an empty folder) does not sync.
I think it has something to do with files that apps tell the OS to treat as a ‘file’ but they are really folders (macOS bundle files).
CONFIRMED:
I just created a new library and did the following (from the terminal)
cd <new library>
mkdir TestApp (synced fine!)
mkdir TestApp/Alfred.alfredpreferences FAILED
What repo should I file this bug to? This is a nasty one
Hi,
this should be a bug, currently seadrive can’t handle files of type package which is actually a directory but mac will think it is a file, we will try to fix this later.
Thank you!

All subfolders were removed, the sync failed with an ‘empty’ bundle file.
It’s a bug
Any updates on this?
