Cannot submit change to server on Collab

Hello, currently having an issue whereby I cannot publish my work in the collab project I am working on. Error lines are.

Code (CSharp):

I am brand new to this feature and do not know if its me just being new or a general issue.

 

hi @bradarnott
did you at one point recase the Assets/Textures folder?

please change it back to its original case and you will be able to commit normally again.

 

Getting the same issue.. using 5.5B11 Would be nice for you to actually display the filename that's the problem in the editor console.


all i get this is!

@Prodev101 In most cases you would (see bradarnott's post above) could you submit a bug report after trying again (just so i get the logs) and ping me the case #? lets try to find out why your editor isn't logging the file correctly.

 

Sent entire project (its only tiny , that's why were testing Collab using it).

Bug 852500

 

Got it! Will respond via bug Thank you so much @ckirby101 !

 

I'm having the same problem after renaming a folder that was lower case to upper case. I'll just add a (2) at the end of the word so that i can commit while waiting for a fix.
Thanks.

 

I'm getting the same error as Prodev101 but it's only this line:
[Collab] GitRepoService::NameTakenError: The name of a file or directory is already taken: case must match.
No mention of the actual file that is causing the problem.

 

Same error here. The only thing I did in my project was to create a new folder where I imported a couple of meshes with the same name as some already found in another folder in the project. Too bad the error message doesn`t say anything about the "corrupted" filenames though. :/

 

Yes, thank you. This helped locate the problem file. The project web page had 2 folders in the same directory called 'Mud' and 'mud', while I only had 'Mud' and another project member had 'mud'. Conflict resolved, I can submit changes now.

 

Thank you sir, you saved the day.

 

Im having the same issue on 5.6.0f3 personal.

Code (csharp):

1. {[Collab] GitRepoService::NameTakenError: The name of a file or directory is already taken: case must match.
2.  
3. (Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Editor/Src/Collab/CollabCommon.cpp Line: 86)}

Doesnt look like ' C:\buildslave' is a valid file location.

Any ideas on how to get my project to sync again?

 

Launch Unity with the -enableCollabEventLogs flag and there should be another file listed there with the case issue. Your change includes a file or folder rename where the name is the same but the casing is different. You'll have to return it to the original casing or do a rename to a different word/phrase/spelling. Worst case scenario, submit a bug report with the logs and support can tell you which file it is.

 

I have the same issue, I tried to submit a case with logs, however support has been unable to help me, I don't think the bothered to look at the logs, instead kept asking me to do things like delete my project settings, library files, etc. Nothing has helped yet. Why can't the error message simply tell us which files are problematic, then we can fix this problem ourselves? I have been unable to submit my project for more than a month now, and support has been unable to help.

 

Thanks! I don't know what I did wrong last time I tried, this time I saw the offending folder and fixed it. I am now able to publish again! Many thanks!

 

Hello, I'm not able to publish anything either. I've looked at the editor log but there isn't a NameTakenError...

 

Thank you for yor quick reply!

I'm quite new to this so I stuggled with the command promt a bit.

I think I have started Unity now with -enableCommandEventLogs but there aren't any new errors as far as I know... I added a screenshot because I'm not sure wether I am able to even reconize the error...

 

This kind of error persists in the 5.6.1f1... Tow of my image extensions changed from "JPG" to "jpg" and this error has taken my day... Frustrating

 

I renamed the images to the same extension and worked. Thanks @ryanc-unity, and sorry for being so whiny. You are always so helpful, thanks

 

Stupid reply... Collaborate means Team work, what if another Team member is changing the directory / file names (which happens to me)...

The headaches this tool creates... It might just be the reason why teams split up!

 

Hi , I am having problems uploading changes to the server as well. My org ID is: 2474009800395

 

2019, this still exists as an issue. I've gotten some resource packs that I had in the collab but since moved them and renamed them, but Unity doesn't like that. period.
it might be due to some Asian characters "__곷€___怨쀬뵠__ 筌뤴뫁_앮묾__袁_ __쑵六얏묾_f-16_a_2048"

 

that would be great to support, I managed to fix it by having renaming the item to something else then creating a new item with the asain name. submitting that, then deleting the asain named object.

I am eagerly waiting to when we can force override the collab with a new master. purge what's on the cloud and reset it without creating new project.

 

what would be the possability of Unity 2018 LTS getting this patch if/when it ever comes out?
I can't upgrade and I have this issue again and my previous work around is not working anymore.

 

[Collab] GitRepoService::NameTakenError: The name of a file or directory is already taken: case must match. Conflicting: ["/Assets/Scripts/RoadMap.cs.meta", "/Assets/Scripts/Roadmap.cs.meta"]

I changed the script name from RoadMap to Roadmap. I'm checking my folders and I don't have a file named RoadMap.cs.meta. I don't know what to do. Am I not able to change script name ever?

(Unity 2019.3.0f6)

 

I restarted Unity and it seems to be fixed.

 

is this what im supposed to find?? [Collab 2021-0122 18:21:09 GMT][Error] 'Cannot submit change to server' (23) returned in 'C:\buildslave\unity\build\Editor/Src/Collab/Requests/UploadRequests.cpp' at line 150

 

I simply could not get anything to work. I was able to solve this issue by:

1. Copy any affected files to another folder outside the project.
2. Delete the affected files from the project.
3. Restart Unity and Publish changes.
4. Copy the files back into the project and publish.

Unfortunately, you will need to re-wire any references inside the editor for these files. In my case, they were art files, so it wasn't a big problem.
