Hi All,

I was reviwing this thread, and I have had several problems uploading some
files from the National Library of Chile (150 to 200 MB files). The first
problem with the chunck upload system is that it showed to me the following
error *<api-error-internal_api_error_MWException>*. I entered on
preferences and turned on the option for chunk upload.

This has been (partially?) adressed in the following Phabricator thread:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/*T94562*, but I believe hasn't been fixed.

After receiving the prior error message, I opted to use the following
workaround: http://tools.wmflabs.org/url2commons/index.html, which worked
sometimes, and others, specially for the bigger files has given me the
error: *ERROR: null*

I do not know what is creating this errors (I am uploading PDF's), but it
would be really nice if someone could either check it up to see if it can
be fixed (my best guess would be that is has to do somehaow with the
Mediawiki software), or be kind to explain me which method could be another
simple and easy workaround (since I couldn't figure out how to use the
bigChunkedUpload.js).


Thanks a lot!
