Question

Uploading or Updating Developers Link makes XD freeze at 0%.

So, we are currently 4 persons in our organization having the same problem. Two on mac, two on pc.

We are working on different files, co-editing not activated on any of these and different internet connections. When trying to share the document creating the development link, it gets stuck on 0%, we have left the program run for a night, to see if it could get over it given the right time, without avail.

After a lot of testing around these files, we found out that the main problem blocking the upload where certain components. When deleting those, it would start uploading without a problem. The issue with this is that we have files with hundreds of components. And checking wich ones works or not for the upload is very, very time-consuming.

 

I've uploaded the video so you can see what's happening there. Also, in the end, you can see that I have a really good internet connection, so that's not the problem.

This also happens even if all the artboards are selected to export.

 

As XD doesn't crash, I've no extra logs or information to give to try to pinpoint the problem.

 

This XD I'm using to make the test was just reinstalled from a fresh, fully erased adobe installation. No plugins added yet.

 

I hope you can help me find a solution to this. 

 

Thanks!

Hi Harshika!
Do we have any news about the bug?
I've had the same problem in  3 new different projects... We are not able to fully work with XD, and because of his randomness, we are not able to avoid it even when continuously checking that the new dev links don't break at upload.

Apart from the first 0% problem, we are also more and more experiencing the "you are disconnected error" on the updating of the dev link. it seems that with the last updated something changed that make that worse.

 

I hope you can shed some light on these issues!

Hi Zigmas,

 

I can understand that it's very frustrating for you. I have checked with the team and they are still working on it. I will update you as soon as I hear back from them.

 

Thanks,

Harshika

    I am having the same problem on a Mac with a small file with only vector assets. I chose 'developer' as the type of link and it hangs on 0% for like 3 minutes on every single update link. ALL my other XD files do not have this issue that are set to Design Review Mode. This is a new file I made as a simple handoff for a popup layout with Developer Mode and Download Assets enabled. My ISP is gigabit up and down.

      Hi again guys!
      HARSHIKA, I'm really sad to say that we have this problem's now also on the links that have the download assets deactivated and even in the normal prototype link.

      I'll send you a pm with an example file with which is not possible to update any link, as it says directly that you have an internet connection error, or randomly it just freezes at 0% or at 50%.

       

      This error has already made us lose a full week of development on our side, and I'm just over the top with frustration.

      Writing you is just my last hope before trying another way to communicate this project with my team.

       

      I hope you can help.

      thanks.

      Because of our tests with my team here, we are kinda sure it has something to do with the components, and components that contain components inside of them, For some reason this makes Xd fail.

        I'm having this same issue since yesterday as well. I published an update in the morning just fine. Then a few hours later after I'd made some changes to replace a sidebar with a sidebar component, and now I can't publish the updates because the update link just sits on 0% until I eventually have to force quit XD. Restarting the machine doesn't fix the issue. It's a large file so previously it was taking a while to update, but it was doing something and not just staying at 0%. 

        Edit to mention that I'm on Mac Mojave 10.14.6 and XD 29.3.32.3  CC Sync 4.3.45.2

          Hi there,

           

          Sorry to hear about the trouble. Could you please try the steps shared below:

           

          1. Sign out of XD and Adobe CC Desktop app.
          2. Close CoreSync Process and all Adobe related process from the Task Manager/Activity Monitor.
          3. Sign back in on Adobe CC Desktop app and launch Adobe XD from there and then try publishing the link and let us know how it goes.

           

          Regards

          Rishabh

          Hi,

           

          No luck it's still sitting at 0%. Out of curiousity I made a copy of the original. I then created a link for the copy and this worked, I then duplicated an artboard and updated the link and it appears to have published that update (I made the mistake of touching the other window with the original doc still hanging there on 0% in the midst of that update which caused xd to stop responding and I had to force quit it all.) so it seems that something may have corrupted the document, but whatever that was didn't persist into its copy? 

           

          Edit: spoke too soon. went to update to remove the duplicated artboard, noticed I'd shared as design review not development the first time, switched it to development and updating the link does not work at 0 hang again, so it seems to be the development share that is the problem.

           

          Edit 2: went to the original doc, switched share from development to design review and magically it is publishing. It's defnitely the share for development view that is having the hang problem.

            Hi there,

             

            We are sorry to hear you are having trouble. Would you mind sharing the file with me over a private message so that we can check at our end?

             

            We will try our best to help.

             

            Thanks,

            Harshika

              Sure, I'll share you a part of it,
              Do you want me to send you the local file? Altho the problem is with the cloud versions of the file...
              I'll send you the local, so you can test it, if you cannot reproduce the error, then it's possible that it's related to the cloud-only version of it.
