Failed writing body error
« on: October 27, 2012, 01:35:58 am »
For the first time after 107 episodes Powerpress is coming up with this error as I try to verify my next episode 'Failed writing body (390 !=1460)' and not verifying my MP3 file.

The MP3 file has been created the way it's always been created and the hosting on S3 remains unchanged.

Any ideas why this file is not verifying and what I can do to fix it?

Can you post the URL for the media file so I can test it?

or...  you can email me the link here:  mike [at] rawvoice.com

The file verified for me just fine. 

Try posting the episode without hitting the verify button and see if it works. 

There could be a plugin conflict or just a glitch when you tried it before.

Also note you're using a 3rd party (Amazon) to host your media, if you need support you should contact them since you pay them for a service.

Thanks Mike and Angelo. (Michael Angelo ;0)

Mike, the file posts without a problem when I don't hit the verify button. I'll do this going forward.

Angelo, fair call about the hosting being a third-party - that said, the file itself appeared to be fine all along. The issue must be within the plug-in.

I really appreciate your guy's support. I'm launching a consulting business this week in which I will work with businesses to help them get their own show - www.GetYourOwnShow.com.au (site will go live on Wednesday). I intend to move all my clients on to Powerpress.

Cheers .... Tim.

Mike verified the file in his blog with powerpress without issue. That tells me there's either a conflicting plugin, or wordpress blog hosting issue. Go to powerpress settings. Tools > diagnostics make sure everything's ok.

Search this forum, find out why using S3 is not a good idea. There's a different service from Amazon you should be using. If you want our help with this 3rd party service you will need to hire us as contractors, we charge $100/hr basic Internet media consulting, $150/hr for development work.

Thanks Angelo. I've run the diagnostic and have had the email sent to me. It's all French to me! Let me know if you'd like me to forward it on.

I'll scoot through the Forum and sniff out the alternative to S3 - it's good timing as my hosting bill is going North of $300 / month as the show grows in popularity.

Cheers Tim.

I didn't mean alternative, I mean how to properly setup Amazon web services. Its a good service but using s3 alone is not good. Search this forum "s3 cloudfront".

Thanks Angelo - How much time would you need to allocate to reviewing my S3 situation and optimising this out for me?

1 hour over phone/skype to setup Amazon services and document a procedure for uploading media and setting the appropriate meta data. If interested, please use the contact form requesting an invoice for consulting services www.blubrry.com/contact.php.
