Details

The link of a file store on YouSendIt by Thunderbird doesn't work. User get this strange error message: "An Error Has Occurred Invalid download. This download link contains no files Please search with knowledge base with the following error number: 100" It sounds like when files were uploaded via Thunderbird, an error occured when the upload was almost completed, and even though the upload failed, a download link was generated and went through. Several users report this error with Filelink: http://support.yousendit.com/t5/Sending-and-Receiving/downloading-files-that-are-attched-as-a-link-via-thunderbird-v13/td-p/16186 http://www.geckozone.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=697027#p697027 (in French)
Ok, I was able to reproduce this. It appears as if YouSendIt is choking on uploads with special characters. STR: 1) Name some file "Le problème est déjà signalé.pdf" 2) Upload it to YouSendIt via Filelink 3) Follow the returned link What happens? The user sees the following error message: "An Error Has Occurred Invalid download. This download link contains no files Please search with knowledge base with the following error number: 100." What's expected? The user should be linked correctly to their file. I'll get in touch with YouSendIt.
Summary: Impossible to get a file uploaded via Filelink: "This download link contains no files" → Filelink Uploads to YouSendIt with French characters cannot be retrieved.
