Seeding help - torrent file upload failed

First time seeder here, so I need some help. I'm trying to upload Pearl Jam's show from 7/19/13 at Wrigley Field, and I can't get my torrent file to upload when creating a new thread.

As I was going through the upload, I realized that the original file set only had an md5 checksum but not ffp or st5, so I had to create a new torrent file once i added the FLAC fingerprints. I never actually submitted the original torrent file, but did the creation of multiple torrent files interfere somehow?

Can someone help out here? Thanks in advance.

Re: Seeding help - torrent file upload failed

Here's what the error says when I try to attach my updated torrent file to the "Upload Show" page:

"Upload of file failed. If this is a torrent upload failure, see list of common causes on the Upload Page."

I've checked the announce URL of the torrent file by opening in a text editor, and it appears to be correct. Here's what the top line of the torrent file says:

d8:announce56:http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/....php10:created

Edit - The URL above is automatically shortened, but it's not shortened in the torrent file.

Also, I'm using uTorrent on a Mac to create the torrent if that helps at all.

Let me know if you need any more info. Thanks!

Re: Seeding help - torrent file upload failed

The torrent file got uploaded, but you didn't submit the thread, so things got messed up. I have removed the torrent file so you may try again.
