WARNING 4.0.5 corrupts Adobe files!

[tr0]

Yes, I know they are too. I just mean that its hard for europeans and americans to cope with their way of dealing with the issues and other peoples feelings about it. So no matter how frustrated we are, it feels like they don't give a **.

This particular European finds it pretty easy to deal with inconveniences caused by faulty server firmware without resorting to bizarre and offensive cultural stereotyping. I wish you'd take this rubbish elsewhere while we get on with the matter at hand.

Hi All,

Further to below solution have found AFP protocol still not stable but SMB protocol is. Once using only SMB protocol have not had a problem.

Further to below solution ...

What solution, what firmware, what firmware build?

[Montair]

via 4.0.6 firmware?

Can anyone confirm if this problem is resolved in the latest version released, 4.0.7?
I asked QNAP a very clear question after a lengthy conversation back and fourth during the first quarter this year.

My question to QNAP 2014-02-28:

Can you please confirm that the latest firmware fixes all problems with AFP?

The answer from QNAP 2014-03-03:

"Please don't upgrade the firmware for now."

Define "all problems" ... when reviewing the online documentation available i.e. the Logs for the TS-269L v4.0.7 firmware does include - already for 4.0.6 Build 0321:

[Version and Build]
QTS 4.0.6 build 0321

[Change log]
...
Fixed - Can not open the .psd files which are transmitted by AFP protocol

The problems discussed with QNAP were corrupted files over AFP.
We are running a TS-870U-RP. So I'm still waiting for an official confirmation.

This was fixed even before.

We are running a TS-870U-RP.

Grab the logs and notes yourself.

So I'm still waiting for an official confirmation.

Link provided is official - enjoy waiting for Godot.

The no update message was clearly aimed against 4.0.5.

Honestly? If we had a newer 4.1 Release Candidate available (built with OpenSSL -DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS) - I would suggest to go for it. Why? No more QTS 4.0.x around - all production devices in Apple environments are on 4.1.0 Release Candidate, much smother especially on initial connecting shared folders and open folders.

The latest official release for TS-870U-RP is 4.0.7, so I asked QNAP again.

Is it safe to update to the latest firmware (4.0.7 build 0410) and activate AFP again?

Response:

4.0.7 only fix the SSL Heartbleed vulnerability.
Recommend you to wait for 4.1.0 official release.

...what's perfect in line with my "Honestly?" statement - and now we have RC2 available.

Hi,
is there any way to save the damage files? I have a lot of JPEGs that I can't open. These were all saved with Photoshop and copied via AFP to a TS-469L.
Thanks in advance.
