Error - File empty

[Bum.Soo13]

1. STOP FUCKING SHOUTING!!!

2. Read this fucking thread. Don't just ignore everyone else and hop on the end and demand to be spoon fed. Everything that is known about this particular problem is in this thread. If you do not find a workaround that works for you here then there isn't one. Either don't upload and wait for Winston to fix the bug (which is unlikely to be soon), or figure out a workaround yourself and then share it with your fellow uploaders here.

Im not shouting but where the fuck is Winston.??  In jail!!  This error is ridiculous and so is nobody not knowing shit

For the record, this File Empty error is something I've been getting all week. Unable to ctrl click or clear cache or anything else and have it accept my upload. None of the solutions listed seem to work.

only solution for me that works is to use Tor and https://thepiratebay.org, all other ways:

- ie11 and https://thepiratebay.org - no access to TPB
- Tor and onion address i get always File empty error ......

I shared here faithfully for the last 5 years and have had many popular shares. But the last few weeks I have not been able to gain access to the site,It has been suggested that maybe im not creative enough to circumvent the obstacles to the site,maybe not smart enough to gain access. Well I guess that may well be true. Im not a computer genius im just a guy who liked to share my music with people. I am unable to do so here any more. I guess thats my fault, a simple man has no place here. For those who enjoyed my shares thank you. I will remain active in sharing,it just will be at places that dont require a degree in computer science to navigate to . If things change someone let me know I would be more than happy to share with people that enjoy my music. But for now I will go and find the music that my followers always want and share it where it can be easily found. I wont mention the sites by name cause its probably not smart.

There should be a farewell thread. Your fans might not see this.

I doubt it matters. My file remains empty and if only computer genius or moneyed VPNs can show up who needs us anyway, according to the TPB status there are no problems all is well everything is working. Yet my file remains empty...

I was getting the error too earlier today so I thought I would reduce the size of the torrent file by creating it with a bigger piece size.  After I did that, the torrent got indexed on the 2nd or 3rd try.  It should have been OK at the larger size (200k), but worked at the smaller size (100k).  It may be the solution or it may just have been co-incidence.  There's no way to be sure unless you upload a lot of them and get the same result.  I am not one of the mass uploaders so I can't say with confidence that I found a solution.

I was able to use tor to upload to other sites so it appears that the file empty is only with TPB
