Problems with picture uploads in EOS

Post by 19Hellothere83 »

Hello,

I am experiencing a persistent problem when uploading images to an EOS gallery.
Some JPG files appear in the gallery after uploading, but others do not appear at all – even though they are valid JPGs and much smaller than the size limit.

To troubleshoot, I have tried the following without success:

Changing resolution (from small square images to large 1920×1080 16:9 images)

Re-saving the JPGs in GIMP and exporting with standard settings

Adding textures, colors, and details to avoid large uniform color areas

Matching the format, DPI, compression, and metadata of an image that does work

Using different file names and avoiding special characters

The same file uploads successfully if I rename and replace it with a different image (e.g., a photo), so the problem seems related to the image content rather than the file type or size.

Could you please confirm if there are any undocumented restrictions on:

Minimal complexity or color variation in an image

Certain patterns or large solid-color areas being rejected

A similarity filter preventing many similar images from being uploaded

Any required encoding or specific JPEG settings

This would help me understand why these valid JPGs are being silently rejected by the gallery and how I can adapt my images to meet the requirements.


Thank you for your help,
Carlo

So it seems to be a temporary bug?
Anyone can confirm?

Its strange because I tried several images, some upload some not, but I can't make out a reason why some do and some do not ...

So far I've only been able to upload pictures that were previously uploaded, very strange bug.

I've checked with different teases, but it's still the same. I can upload images that I've uploaded to other teases and the tease itself, but not new pictures. I can also still upload images that have been renamed on my computer, as long as they've been uploaded before.

This is not a bug, the upload is just broken. The upload to the server fails with status code 500 internal server error. Maybe the server ran out of space or something. Seraph0x has to fix this.

Yeah the "ran out of space" explanation makes a lot of sense to me. It probably has code that will check if pictures are the same as ones uploaded and use the already uploaded images instead of taking up space with copies, which is why I thought they "uploaded" correctly.

Yeah, the pictures are identified by a check sum, so every image is only stored once.

Same here. No new image can be uploaded no matter what format it is.
Waiting for some superheroes to fix it.

Don't expect a quick fix. Sera will solve it when they have time, but they are very busy.
