Only two uploads if doNotTrimFilenames is deactivated

[akroii]

Greetings, when i uncheck the chexbox doNotTrimFilenamesonly two uploads where uploaded.

I have 13 pdf files, which i upload simultaneously. All files look like this:

NiNu_Lokales_MA_Poster_Update_2051_KV_Nordrhein_v06.pdf
NiNu_Lokales_MA_Poster_Update_2051_KV_Mecklenburg-Vorpommern_v06.pdf

The upload runs completely, but after it only remains 2 files.

Contao 4.9.22 numero2/contao-proper-filenames 2.1.4

If all the files have a filename that starts the same and have around the same length I can totally see why having doNotTrimFilenames unchecked could cause this. That is not a bug, rather expected behaviour 🤷‍♂️

Take a look at how the files are named after uploading.

[akroii]

My files are in lowercase after uploading

[bennyborn]

What is the actual name of the file after uploading?

[akroii]

Before: NiNu_Lokales_MA_Poster_2021_KV_Berlin.pdf After: ninu_lokales_ma_poster_2021_kv_b.pdf

You see? If you were now to upload a file named NiNu_Lokales_MA_Poster_2021_KV_Bremen.pdf it would be truncated to the same name and therefore overwrite the old file. So in your case you should enable doNotTrimFilenames globally or at least enable Do not check/rename for the folder in the File Manager.

and why only 2 files being uploaded?

Post all file names, that you are trying to upload.

[bennyborn]

Can't tell. My best bet is that rather than there being a problem with the upload itself (which we don't intercept) it might come down to files being renamed to the same filename and therefor overwritten.

[bennyborn]

NiNu_Lokales_MA_Poster_2021_KV_Berlin.pdf becomes ninu_lokales_ma_poster_2021_kv_b.pdf and therefore all your other files will be renamed to ninu_lokales_ma_poster_update_20.pdf.

The twelve other files will all be named the same after truncating them. Thats why you'll end up with just two files.

@akroii if you need file names that are longer than 32 characters, then you need to disable the functionality to automatically shorten file names to 32 characters.

[akroii]

@fritzmg i already did.

of course, it becomes duplicates, the second one will be overwritten. this is why only two files remaining. 🤦‍♂️
