Description (last modified by itamarst)

I created a directory, then tried to upload a file via the web UI.

I got an error: POST to a directory with bad t=

The URL was: http://localhost:3457/uri/URI%3ADIR2%3Agtmxm5wg2g5dgfmavsd63ro7ve%3Ahiwl3vcf6oc77zixcgtnn736fck4ufiezkx2n732k4ylyya5c47a/

The content-length of the POST was zero, which yeah would suggest a problem.

The problem was that the file was owned by root and chmod 600, so not readable. There should really be a more user-friendly error when this is the case.
