Seahub hangs and 401 Access denied #902

Closed fwilly closed 8 years ago

fwilly commented 9 years ago

I run the Seafile Server 3.1.6 64Bit on Ubuntu 12.04.5 with about 50 libraries and 22 user and total currently 116 GB as an alternative for a Dropbox power user and he isn't lucky and I also not.

I had 4 libraries which was read only shared for 8 users and read write shared for 3 users. After a time I had in ccnet.log average every 3 seconds a message "401 Access denied" and seahub wasn't accessible any more. After server restart it was only accessible for 5 minutes.

Now I have all libraries shared read and write. The server is now stable.

Thats no good. My customer is thinking to switch back to Dropbox. Him also disturbs, that are locally not seen what files under the control of Seafile, whether they are current and if not. He knows it from Dropbox and he misses. In addition, the first upload of large amounts of data is much slower than Dropbox.

The support for read-only sync is improved in version 3.1.8 just now. I don't know why the web site freeze. You may should MySQL as database and running Seafile on Linux for better performance.

I use currently MySQL as database. Is there a documentation for migration from 3.1.7 to 3.1.8 to minimize server downtime?

Can you make a statement to display status icons (file is current, file is changed and will be upload, a newer file exists on server and will be download) on every file, which are managed by seafile?

I mean you need to upgrade the client to v3.1.8. The server doesn't need be updated. Displaying status icons is not in our recent plan yet.
