OK, I'll do that. It's been stopping with the error every day lately, but I just changed the error recovery preference from default to "unlimited" number of tries, so we'll see if that helps.

I'm using Yummy 1.5.1 on a Quad with 10.4.7, and a sometimes flakey satellite internet connection. I have Yummy scheduled to perform an upload every half-hour, and many times Yummy will pop up with the error message, "Couldn't establish a connection with server. ...unable to retry". When this happens, Yummy appears to give up trying to reestablish a connection until I dismiss the error message. Then Yummy will immediately start uploads normally (until the next time). If I'm away, the scheduled uploads will cease for hours or days until I come home & dismiss the error message.

Is there any to fix this?

Thanks,
Pat

I was wondering if you can cap the upload speed? Thanks!

Please excuse my ignorance, but why would one wish to do that? I'd like to speed up my uploads. Fat chance of that, though. I'm lucky to get what I have on my satellite connection.

I came home tonight and didn't get to look at the computer until after midnight. The web site had stopped being updated earlier today, but at midnight the site was being updated when I looked. So my previous actions of doing a manual update may have had nothing to do with "waking" Yummy? At this point I'm not sure of anything.

The latest version of the log is attached.

To see if this theory is correct, please leave Yummy running after the failure time to see if it starts uploading again at the one of the next updates.

Yummy has been getting stuck while I'm at work, so it's been NOT uploading until I get home at midnight. I'll let it keep trying after midnight tonight.

please select the 'Enable diagnostics' checkbox in your Synchronize options window.

'Enable diagnostics' checked. I assume this will add output to the same transcript?

As a side note, to adjust an existing schedule, simply click on the scheduled sync item in the queue drawer, then click the clock icon. This will show the schedule already set up.

This is exactly what I mean: the clock icon lets me adjust the schedule, but not see or change anything else. To Enable diagnostics, I had to create a new scheduled sync. To know what the 'other' settings are, I need to rely on my memory (an iffy proposition, at best). Clicking the Schedule icon only shows what was used last. If there is more than one schedule, or I want to change something about the scheduled sync I already have, I'm out of luck.... Or an I missing something?

'Automatically detect time offset'  is (and has been) checked.

I'm not sure if the "Hiding" has any effect (I have Yummy hidden while the computer is running), but after the uploads stopped today, I un-hide the app... It didn't restart the uploads.

To "wake up" Yummy today, I only selected the files in the Mac side of the browser & dragged them to the server side. They got uploaded and then the schedule functioned normally at the next scheduled upload.

Yesterday, I diddled with the schedule. I probably played with all the settings. The problem there is that there doesn't appear to be any way to look at all the schedule settings once they have been made. Clicking on Synchronize just starts a new schedule, from what I can see.

Info I forgot to include in the first post:
Computer: G5-Quad
OS: 10.4.5 w/latest updates

For whatever it's worth, the website is http://users.wildblue.net/patrickward/

I'm going to try to attach the FTP transcript (zipped).

 I"ve delayed reporting this until I recognized a pattern: My weather station is set to download it's data to the computer hard drive every half-hour.  I have Yummy scheduled to upload 2 minutes later, every 30 minutes (09:02, 09:32, etc.). But Yummy has stopped uploading the data to my web site after the 15:32 update every day.

I've examined the log files, but they're mostly Greek to me. The weather station is still refreshing the files in the upload folder (new dates & times), and Yummy appears to go thru the motions, but updates zero files after 15:32. If I reset the schedule, Yummy will work until after the 15:32 update the next day. Have I got some setting wrong?

Pat

You mean Transmit?

  What a dummy, Me! Yes, I meant Transmit. I was at work, and not at my Mac....

Pat

I, for one, would appreciate WebDAV support. The only reason I bought Yummy instead of Transfer was because poor scheduling features of Transfer (Automator kept crashing).

I must have tried 6-8 FTP programs before I settled on Yummy, but the WebDAV capability of Transfer was tempting. Why does Apple use WebDAV instead of FTP for the iDisk?

Pat

Thanks!!

Pat

I have weather station data uploaded every half-hour and Yummy is normally hidden. But every time a transfer is completed, the Synchronization Report wants attention and the Dock icon starts jumping. Is there any way to prevent this action? I don't mind it for items that really need my attention, and so I don't want to disable it system-wide. But it has become annoying to be distracted for nothing more than a status report.

Thanks,
Pat
