is bga sftp have been restored?

Post by shapeshifter999 »

Ho Ho Community!

Curiosity, I work on project Decrypto and the SFTP state does not seems to be the same as I left this week. Some files and folders seems missing, the permissions does not seems to matches, somes images are no longer here.

I would like to confirm if something happened on the server or I did something wrong with my new computer?

Thank you

I am trying, not sure I did the right thing, but I do not see the images getting restored.

I checked, and unfortunately the img/assets directory is empty in source control, so it was probably never properly committed (maybe because the images stored there were too big, "assets" suggest that it was the files provided by the publisher that are really heavy and should definitely not be pushed in source control themselves).

Especially for image assets, it's always a good idea to keep a local copy and check the commit message after a big commit to make sure everything went fine.

I have no idea if this is related, but in a development project that I have not (knowingly?) committed to SVN, I keep seeing files that I deleted locally and in WinSCP still showing up on the remote server.

I was told to message Jurica but have not been in contact with them yet.

Not related, projects are distinct and it's the opposite issue (too many files instead of not enough ;) )
Indeed in some situations projects can need some manual clean-up, when needed it should be requested by writing to studio@boardgamearena.com.

After investigation:

The issue seems that I was working on a Linux machine and the source code is on a portable disk. Somehow, the portable disk disconnected, when I uploaded the source code, the FTP client wrote the files structure with 0 byte and directory with 0 byte causing permission error and strange behavior even after uploading inside of those directory.

The solution was to delete everything and setting up the security again.

Thank you for your inputs!
Have a great day!
