Freesound Forums

I uploaded several recordings, then the website gave me a generic error.

I go to the pending page and see 8 sounds still processing for about 6 hours now. Normally recordings take about 5 minutes to process.

Has something broke?

Hi,

I just re-processed some sounds that failed in the last hours. Can you check if yours are processed now?

Ahh thanks I see 7 of the 8 files in pending now.

However I am missing 1 file, I re-uploaded it and I got the error saying this file has been discarded by Freesound so it wont let me re-upload it. Should I rename the file and try again?

When it says it is discarded is because the exact same file has already been uploaded. Changing the filename won't help. I think there was some kind of error and a moderation ticket was not created for one of your sounds. Now I've approved the 7 pending moderation and deleted the other. Try to re-upload the missing one now as it should work. Thanks.
