Has been happening trying to upgrade to any version past 2.1.0

[jacob-keller]

what is the value in the config file for extra_upload_data, and is it a valid directory?

I can probably add more verbose logging here to make it more obvious what is broken.

[d3fr0st]

It's the default value, same value works fine in 2.1.0

"%UserProfile%\Documents\Guild Wars 2\addons\arcdps\arcdps.uploadextras"
Hard path: "C:\Users\Laurent\Documents\Guild Wars 2\addons\arcdps\arcdps.uploadextras\20181219-225638"

[jacob-keller]

I just added a bit more exception handling logic to this. Can you try the latest commit on master? Also, when you do, see if there's any relevant data in upload_log.txt

nable to create extra upload directory 'C:\Users\Laurent\Documents\Guild Wars 2\addons\arcdps\arcdps.uploadextras\C:\Users\Laurent\Documents\Guild Wars 2\addons\arcdps\arcdps.cbtlogs\Dhuum\20181219-211510.evtc'```

So that line is suspicious hmm.. it looks like it's somehow trying to use the full path to the file...

Oh.. your logs aren't compresed, are they?

[d3fr0st]

They aren't, turned it off when zevtc happened and hadn't turned that back on

[jacob-keller]

ok, I think I accidentally broke that. I have an update I'm about to publish for that :)

[jacob-keller]

Can you try pull request #21 and let me know if it fixes it for you?

[jacob-keller]

Woops, typo in a separate commit. I think I just fixed that, sorry about that one. I'm going to rebase the original merge.

[jacob-keller]

Try what's on master when you get a chance, I merged the pull request.

[jacob-keller]

Try out release v2.4.2 when you get a chance, I believe that should fix this for good :)

[d3fr0st]

2.4.2 fixes the issue
