Uploading without conversion Error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try entering a path which has a jpg file in the folder
2. Keep getting the error Uploading without conversion is only available to 
Google Apps for Business accounts
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should upload the file

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am running with -u <username> -p <password> and entering the path through 
command line when prompted. The path folder contains exactly one JPG file and 
nothing else.

I am using a regular google account and it keeps giving me the error Uploading 
without conversion is only available to Google Apps for Business accounts

Please provide any additional information below.

I got the same problem. It's impossible to upload PDF files, because it says 
that uploading without conversion is only available to google apps for business 
accounts, though i didn't select that it should upload without conversion. I 
actually want my files uploaded converted.

Almost every type of file I try to upload is rejected.

How the heck can this problem have only a medium priority?  It has rendered my 
account utterly useless, and I'm sure I'm not alone.  Since it was reported 
almost a month ago and nothing has been done, I'll be taking my business 
elsewhere.

I ahve the same error:  Mac OSX Lion, IMac 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo, I am running 
this as a Shell Script through an Apple script attached to a folder.  Any PDF 
file I place in the folder gets this error:

Google Docs Upload 1.4.7
Using this tool, you can batch upload your documents to a Google Docs account 
preserving folder structure.
Type 'help' for a list of parameters.

/Users/jeffkline/Desktop/Uploads to GDocs/Thompson Center Even Pagesimage.pdf
 - Uploading without conversion is only available to Google Apps for Business accounts

THe command I am using is:  

do shell script "java -jar 
/Users/*****/Library/Scripts/google-docs-upload-1.4.7.jar " & quoted form of 
POSIX path of aFile & " --recursive -u *********** -p  &&&&&&&&&& >> 
/Users/jeffkline/Library/Scripts/GDocs-upload-log.txt"

I have a paid business account and I get the Uploading without conversion is 
only available to Google Apps for Business accounts
...

my command line is:
java -jar e:\users\gdu\google-docs-upload-1.4.7.jar e:\users\mitch -rf 
/documents --recursive -u $$$$$$$$$$$$$ -p $$$$$$$$

It does this for every single file except .pdf files.

I have the same issue and I have a business account. As previously stated this 
is a serious issue for me. I have contacted Google Support about whether my 
account is actually considered a 'business account' and it appears to be 
according to the Support guy. I sent him screen shots but I received no further 
responses...

Has anyone had anymore luck with this error?

Hi Guys

I found the issue (at least for me anyway). As you are trying to upload to a 
business account it seems the API requires the https protocol for unconverted 
documents.

To solve the problem I simply added:

--protocol https

to the end of the command and it uploaded no problems.

I hope this helps others :)
