Clearer answers when a server refuses a file
Uploads, renames and deletes on a server drive now report what the server actually said — a permissions problem, a full disk, a quota — instead of a generic connection failure.
When a server drive rejected an operation, BucketPilot reported that the server "may be unreachable". Often it was perfectly reachable: it had answered immediately, and the answer was no.
Server responses are now translated into something you can act on:
- •Permission denied — the account BucketPilot connects as can't write to that directory. The message points you at the folder's owner and permissions, which is where the fix is.
- •No space left — the disk is full.
- •Quota exceeded — the account's own limit is reached, even though the disk isn't.
- •Read-only filesystem — the path can't be written to at all.
- •Path no longer exists — the folder moved or was removed since the page loaded.
This applies to every operation on a server drive, not just uploads. A genuine connectivity failure still reports as one — but it now means what it says, rather than being the answer to everything.
