FTP "hangs"
« on: September 13, 2023, 09:59:40 PM »
Using the FTP uploader I'm having an issue where I can upload a single or batch of pics and they go fine - then the next set to go the first image "hangs" and doesn't send. It's like PM is trying to reconnect but just never gets there.

Odd think is the moment I hit cancel it connects and the image goes.

I had figured it was just me, but another photog asked today if I was having this issue ..

Are you both on the same network when this happens? Does this issue happen for you regardless of the network you are connected to?

Does this issue happen if you change the destination server?

What version and build of Photo Mechanic are you using?

I also see this issue. It's not a major problem as you can just cancel and restart. Often leaving the uploading 'hanging' will result in the images uploading but can take a while.

Happens on a variety of servers on both MacBook and Mac Studio.

How long has this been an issue for you? Did it seem to coincide with a recent update or has it happened since you've been using Photo Mechanic?

There is also an option on the FTP Uploader (bottom left corner) to save FTP logs. Might reveal something useful.
