I tried three separate times to upload some scenery files and each time I get an error message that tells me that the "Message" is too short and must contain at least 445 characters (I think that was the number). I've uploaded enough here to know that the length of the description can be relatively short or fairly long, and mine was probably 5 lines long. Not sure why the problem, but it may be connected to the downtime we experienced earlier.

I'll just let Rami figure it out, lol.:salute:

It's being looked at Ed. I don't know how long it will take though.

Falcon,

The download area is working...but your problem may be related to what Canelo is working on. One of the recent updates has caused some...snafus...lets put it that way, and he's working hard to untangle the crossed wires. I'll give you an "all clear" when we're good. :mixedsmi:

Gracias Rami!!

UPDATE: I spoke too soon Rami. . .no joy. Here's what I see when I try to upload. . .and by the way, the character count is never the same, so it's reading the characters in my description and then telling me how many more I need before it will accept it.

I notice the warbirds section is up again...when I try and upload, it will not accept for message being too short (less than 95 characters) so I upped it to over that and tried again..this time it says I need more than 305 characters...is this going to be fixed soon?

Warhawk1130,

I'm not sure what the problem is, but I'll alert Canelo.

Yea, Rami thought it was fixed until I tried for the 4th time this morning to upload something and still got the same message. I posted a screenshot for him so he can see what we're getting. Hopefully it'll be fixed pretty soon.

Hey guys,

Yeup, we're still working on it. :wiggle:

Hey guys,

I just wanted to pass along another update...I sent another message to the highest senior staff on the issue, I hope the matter will be solved with all due speed. As soon as I know, so will you.

I tried to upload with Firefox 11 and wirh IE9, and experienced the same problem all of you are having. :mixedsmi:

Hey guys,

As you are well aware, there have been some "issues" here the last few days with the navigation taskbar and the inability of users to upload new stuff. It would appear that the software update done last weekend caused more than a few snafus.

Rest assured that the database has not been compromised...and I will post direct links to the library here for you to have access to it.

Warbirds archive: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...wnloads&New=10 (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/page.php?lloc=downloads&loc=downloads&page=downloads&New=10)

Warbirds library: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php

What's new: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...=find&catid=-8 (http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links_search.php?action=find&catid=-8)

Ickie and Canelo are still working on it. Trust me when I say that, because I can only imagine the frustration. They've been doing updates and other stuff each night, and it's still a tangled mess. Rest assured, however, that the database has not been compromised.

Anyway, I thought a little humor might help while you all wait..and thanks for understanding. :mixedsmi:

Good morning again,

I was able to upload a package this morning without a problem, so why don't you try uploading any new files that you have, and we'll see how it goes. :running:
