Upload from Google drive to wikimedia stuck at 75%

[NdibeRaymond]

I tried using this tool on my mobile phone as well as on my laptop and in both cases, it doesn't move beyond 75%. Maybe this has something to do with my account but I would love it if someone can confirm.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open up the tool on either your mobile phone or laptop and try uploading from Google drive to wikimedia

Expected behavior The upload should complete successfully but it isn't

I would love to work on this @tonythomas01

Interesting. Yes, we should fix this. Btw, I would love to see the response from the POST to upload network call to see if we have some error at the backend.

Also, see that any picture you upload goes directly to Wikimedia Commons.

@tonythomas01 This issue has been reported in Phabricator by another user so no need duplicating it. I would love to solve it though

the response from the network is server error 500. its definitely something from the backend

I had a server error too. I found out that the reason was because I didn't set the correct WIKI_URL in local_settings.py file. I set it to "test.wikipedia.com" and it gave me another error from google auth which was because I didn't enable google drive api while creating my project on my google account. After enabling, I can now successfully upload

Cannot reproduce with latest instructions. Closing as invalid. Thank you for reporting though :)
