On top of what's written on the first page which you should have visited, I would like to mention this:
TPB used to cut titles exceeding 64 characters but now it seems to throw this error instead of cutting right away.

Having more than 64 characters was my problem. I repackaged my release(s) with a different title and my upload succeeded immediately.

FYI, the 64 character uploading issue is not mentioned on the first page of this thread.

Thank you for taking the time to help me. I greatly appreciate your efforts.

Regards,
LeviD.

Not for everyone it seems, e.g.:

Truncation to 64 short-ASCII characters is still enabled and has been for quite some time.

The list of reasons stated throughout this thread for the loader to spit an "Upload error4" message is anything but exhaustive. Without the *full* context of the failed upload one cannot ascertain what caused rejection. For what I know the most common reason is torrent description being too long and the least common, yet vicious, is Unicode punctuation marks in the name of the torrent or the .torrent file (see https://pirates-forum.org/Thread-ThePirateBay-Error-Upload-error4?pid=243882#pid243882).

I had this and replaced all the file name spaces with ".", removed a comma and shortened the file name and success.

Error - Upload error 4 (2020) - Lando18 - Aug 04, 2020

I used to regularly upload torrents with a large amount of files. Recently, after the TPB redesign, I've been getting "Error - Upload error 4"  when trying to add the same type of torrent. 

I've checked for the normal issues that caused this error message for me in the past, but I still cannot add my usual type of torrent that includes many files. 

I suspect that too many files is not my problem as I've added many torrents before that include many more files. 



RE: Error - Upload error 4 (2020) - LillyLacTac - Aug 04, 2020

Well, some sections dont allow certain files. For example if you upload to video, your torrent cant include a .txt file. That is just an example, and you actually can upload txt files into video (i think). BUuuuut that could cause you to be getting that error, try the other category see if it works.

I double checked to make sure there were no txt files. I've been adding these kind of torrents for years so I'm familiar with what usually gets through. It seems to be a new issue related to the redesign. The error code 4 is a constant issue for people but there's no up to date explanation for it. The excuse that the torrent is too large is from many years ago and not relevant because for several years now, larger torrents have added just fine.

You can observe the recent torrents stream and get ideas of what TPB is currently accepting.
