Every time I try to upload my map, I get an error message saying "File does not exist". The map size is only 250 KB.



None.

Is it saved in a folder that requires elevated privileges?

This is 100% hear-say, but try uploading an empty text file then editing the uploaded file and replacing it with your map.

Not a bad idea, but the file extension must be the same.

No. I'm trying to upload the file from my desktop.



None.

I would guess that your end is fine and the file failed to get uploaded on the server for some reason, then the file not found is due to SENs map parser being unable to find it... maybe one of our mods could check it out? :)

I get this problem with some maps and other's have it as well. It's been like that for a while now.

Trying to edit a post that comes close to the character limit I noticed something similar. SEN just worked for 2-3 minutes but didn't submit - but no errors. Upon trying again it worked.

My guess is SENs server is so overloaded, that if your map is too big it takes too long to upload and at some point just cancels. If that's true, maybe the edit routine is faster / more stable. Or people tried again when SEN activity died down, so they server could process it.

Everything just speculation.

It has nothing to do with file size. I tried uploading a 50 KB map, same problem.



None.

Okay I tried uploading a 50 KB map for 3rd time and it worked. Then I edited the file and that worked.



None.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
