Cloudczm,

I have finally been able to reproduce your problem.  There is a defect in cp2foss.
What is going on is that when you specify an alternate name with -n, for some reason that name is not used.  I'm looking into it now and will be fixing it as soon as I find the problem.

To address your situation:

The file you uploaded was called fossologytest.zip.  That is the file you should see under the tmp folder.  That is the file that can be deleted.  This defect exists in 1.1.0 and in our TOT source code.  We will probably release a 1.1.1 to fix this problem.

In the sort term, know that cp2foss or the ui will when uploading from a URL will not rename the upload if -n is used.  It will use the name of the upload as the name to store in the repository.

This defect does not occur when uploading from file.  It does occur when uploading from server or from url.

Hope that helps and thanks for asking for help.  It was only through your asking that we found the defect.

Some addition information, when using the delagent command, this file is shown under the tmp folder.

Hello,
 
We were able to get this command working with the GA release.  However, I'm still having issues with deleting the file through the UI after it has been uploaded.  When I go to the "Delete Uploaded File" page through the UI and select the tmp folder, there still no file to delete.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 
 
Thanks

cloudzm,

Hmmm, this is very strange!  When you say the scan completed successfully, how do you know that?  (all the jobs finished when monitoring with menus Jobs-> Queue-> Details?).

What has me confused is that if the scan completed then there should be an entry called test under the folder tmp.  OR there should be an entry SOMEWHERE called test.  Do you at least find the uploaded file 'test' somewhere in Fossology/UI?

I will try to reproduce this on Lenny using current 1.1.0 release bits.

Keep at it!  We will get this solved.
