What type of hardware are you using: VPS bought online
What YunoHost version are you running: 12.0.7
What app is this about: Sharkey
Describe your issue
When trying to upload images within the Sharkey web UI, it will show a loading pop-up in the upper right but then nothing happens. There is no “file size too big” message or any other error message within Sharkey. The upload simply fails. I have followed the steps on Sharkey’s FAQ about enabling “keep original image” and disabling fingerprinter blocks in browsers in order to allow the Canvas API to work. Same problem in Firefox, Chrome, and Edge.
I have used the error field below to share what popped up in the VPS CLI after three attempts at uploading images to various places within the Sharkey web UI while the CLI is open.
I am not sure if the problem here is with Yunohost, the Sharkey app for Yunohost, or somewhere on the VPS side. I checked with some Sharkey devs and they said “that looks like some security thing that’s very outside our code” and “Probably, you are encountering a permissions or disk-space issue for the sharkey files location. You should ensure that Sharkey can write to the files folder.” How can I ensure the Sharkey app has this permission?
Share relevant logs or error messages
No YunoHost error logs. If I have VPS CLI open, these messages are generated when I try uploading images to different locations within Sharkey.
