#1449 closed defect

drop-upload: updates to files may be lost if few servers are connected (e.g. soon after starting the gateway) — at Version 2

Description (last modified by warner)

This is related to #719, but it may be a more significant problem for the drop-upload frontend because it starts monitoring the directory immediately.

In the latest #1429 patch, the 'Operational Statistics' page shows the number of drop-uploads that have failed, and there may be information about those failures in logs, but there is no other indication to the user that changed files have not been successfully uploaded.
