Temporary note: due to problems with the latest Dokan driver, file system integration is temporarily disabled on Win 7. The problem causes a bluescreen on some 64-Bit Windows 7 systems. If you are affected, try starting in safe mode and remove \"Wuala Dokan\" in the control panel. If \"Wuala Dokan\" does not appear, try manually deleting C:\\Windows\\System32\\Drivers\\wdokan.sys Please excuse this bug. We are working on resolving it.
]]>Happy New Year!
]]>General Note about the Beta:
Currently, due to the high load on our servers Wuala might sometimes be slower than usual when browsing.
This is only a temporary issue that will be fixed during the next week.
We have also limited the number of new notifications (the green marks) to 100 per group or friend since
the current user interface cannot gracefully handle more than about a thousand notifications.
We have also resolved a few minor problems in connection with the flagging tool. You can't "save as..." blocked content any more, you can unflag "not family friendly" content again, and anyone with write access can now unblock files in a group, not only the owner; among other smaller changes.
]]>There have been quite a few changes recently. If you notice anything unusual that you think should be immediately addressed, you can write directly to bug_high_prio@wua.la .
]]>Newly insert files have the status 'not yet uploaded'. As some of you have noticed, a bug hit us yesterday that caused the status of some files in groups to be reset to 'not yet uploaded' even though they have been uploaded before. These files are currently not accessible. Like other files that are not yet uploaded, they will be uploaded again as soon as the original uploader logs in the next time (if they are in his local cache), or if anyone else uploads the same file (identified by hashkey) to the system. This bug only affects files in groups. No files stored in 'My Files' are affected. The bug has been identified in our server code and fixed so there is no need to update your client. We apologize for this incident. This is the first and hopefully also the last time that already uploaded file data got unavailable again in Wuala.
In response to this incident we provide a new feature called 'file availability check'. It checks all files of a given folder or group for their availability. It also shows their upload status (no distinction between files that have never been uploaded (the majority) and those lost due to the bug mentioned above). Furthermore, it uploads all files with status 'not yet uploaded' that are found in the local cache and can repair some files that have never been uploaded correctly.
