I am not sure if it is the same thing, but I too am having issues uploading files to our venue server, attached is the log that I sent to the list before but never heard anything back. My setup is running on Windows server 2003.

I suspect a server-side failure which prevents transmission of the ADD_DATA event, which would explain the client behavior. Has anyone captured the problem in a VenueServer.log?
