Hi there,
I was trying to upload a file with the Librivox Uploader, but when I clicked "Start," after it looked like it had uploaded, it said "undefined Error Empty file upload result."
I tried it multiple times, tried to re-export the file from Audacity as well. What does this mean? :help: :help:
Thanks,
Mozartjr

I'm not sure... the file preferences says that it is only 5.95 MB. If there is a way to lessen the MBs on Audacity, I'm happy to try it...I just don't know how to if there is a way.

Hmm. It's just the one file? Others upload fine?

Would you upload it to Google Drive or something, so someone else can try it?

Did you try closing the uploader page and relogging in to the uploader? If you got timed out, then this is likely the error you will see.

I don't think your email will be visible, but if you don't want to use Google drive, I think another option is to zip your MP3 file and send it as a zip file through the Librivox uploader.


Other things to check if an MP3 file isn't uploading:
- weird characters in filename
- weird characters in ID3 tags

AHA! It worked! It was a french character in the filename and ID3 tags!
Thank you all! :clap: :clap:
