Does not update archive

[wwwdotphilip]

I just started using Amazon Glacier today to backup my files. I found out that you need to use the Glacier SDK to upload/download your files or use a third party client. So I google around for clients on MAC OSX 10.7 and found this SAGU. When I tried uploading a file to test if it is working, after a few seconds the dialog appeared saying upload was successful. But when I tried to check my archive in Glacier the vault was not updated. I provided the Access key, Secret Key, Server location Asia Pacific(Tokyo) and choose a vault. Please tell me what I did wrong.

Hi wwwdotphilip,

Glacier is slow (hence the name) so it takes 24 hours for uploads to appear in inventories and become available for download. It's been a few days since you posted this message so they should be available now. I can not stress enough the importance of your log files. As soon as you successfully upload Amazon will return an archiveID that SAGU saves to a file for you. That's what's going to link the name of the file that you upload to the archiveID that exists on Amazon's servers. Let me know if you're still having issues.
