issue EResult 9 when trying to update mod?

[w00tyd00d]

I can't seem to update my mod on the workshop because I keep getting the "Failed sharing mod data file." error :\ I checked the log of the uploader and it keeps giving me "EResult 9, ffffffffffffffff" as a result.

I checked through all of my files and everything seems to check out on my end; modinfo's version is updated and the mod itself runs fine.

I seem to remember having this issue in the past and many were saying how it was a steam issue but it turned out to actually be something on Klei's end, so I just figured I'd relay my current issue here to see if anyone else is having similar problems atm.

I'd be grateful for any help or further feedback on the error

I finally found the thread that was talking about the error I was getting last time (I know I wasn't crazy, turns out the post was just archived lol) and I guess it was a different EResult than this one (25 instead of 9). However looking at the github link that Halfrose had posted in the OP of that thread, according to the list it says EResult 9 means "File was not found."

Taking a closer look at the mod uploader log, it looks like the files get zipped fine and it detects the steam cloud file fine, but then there seems to be a problem during the upload phase:

It seems to have gone through every file in the mod and OK'd it so I assume everything zipped correctly? I truly don't know tho :\

@PeterA are you still around? Would you have any insight on what this could mean? You were an awesome help last time

Ok, so I tried again today and managed to upload an update to my pre-existing mod on the DST workshop, but now I'm trying to upload it to the DS workshop and I'm still getting the same type of error in the same type of way :\

Is there anything I should be doing differently?

[PeterA]

Yeah, there's a known issue with the mod uploader that if you upload an identical mod or preview image a second time, unfortunately it causes the upload to fail. From your other post it sounds like you managed to work around it though!

What I've been recommending to people that have run into this issue, is to upload a small alternate mod in between uploads/updates containing the same data.

Ah I see, very good to know lol

Thanks for the response @PeterA  I do appreciate it
