Does the server have write permissions to the folder it is running in (especially shared_files)?

Try checking out the newest version of the  server (added in more descriptive error handlers to help diagnose this problem).

Hi, I applied your patch but I still get the following (the server does have permissions on shared_files):

Is there an error report on the client computer?

Does the sever work with any file? Have you tried to upload a very small file?

I will have to try more testing on my end to see if I can reproduce this error.

[icarito]

I'm sorry I'm not more informative. I see no error on the client side in the logs.
On the other hand, the server does save what seem like correct .xoj files.

The error happens for files of any size.

Please try grabbing the server code again, this time I have it catching the broken pipe so hopefully I'll get a useful error message. It seams trying to send the error message to the client was hiding the error message I need to figure out the issue.
