[marinofaggiana]

@pjft yes, was only for debug, next version will be removed.

[kubrickfr]

@pjft still happens with the version on flight test (4.9.2(7)).

The upload fails silently and doesn't restart when the app is reopened.

Hi @marinofaggiana ! Yes, it resolves the uploads disappearing from the upload queue, which is great - thank you.

From a user experience standpoint, though, it still shows a red banner when you open the app, stating "Upload File - The network connection was lost. -9993" which is scary, until you notice that the upload will resume in a bit.

Thank you! I'm closing this issue for now then.

[pjft]

Just to update, this still happens on 4.9.2 (7) released today.

[pjft]

Thank you for testing @kubrickfr - good to hear it's replicable in others'.

[pjft]

@marinofaggiana getting this on your radar, as it's also similar to the latest comment from @UweKeim on #2641

[marinofaggiana]

new version in TestFlight 4.9.2 (10) lets me know if resolve

Thanks guys for figuring this out ❤️.

I do not want to go on the Testflight track again; would it be reasonable to assume that within the next two weeks or so the production version will get the fix, too?

[pjft]

@marinofaggiana Got it - thank you, and thanks for the responsiveness!

I was testing #2648 and it still fails in this version. I'm adding logs there - hope it helps, but do let me know if there's anything I can test.
