Hi. After uploading an .html file to filemanager.ai the html code inside it duplicated 3 times in a row(25 lines of code became 73). I am getting 404 error during upload(via web) each time, so my best guess is that is was 3 auto-retries and it merged 3 files somehow.
Any ideas how to fix this and 404 errors?

This is indeed a rare but known issue of the file manager. We don’t quite know why it happens, but it rarely does.
If the contents of any files are incorrect, the way to fix it is the same way you fix any file with the wrong content: you replace it with the right content.
I’m not quite sure which 404 error you are talking about though. Can you please share a screenshot of that?

Try to upload the file you’re trying to upload using an FTP client; here’s a guide to configure FileZilla:
> [@How to upload files with FTP](https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/how-to-upload-files-with-ftp/49306):
>
> The best and most reliable way to upload files is to use FTP. To upload files with FTP, you will need to following: Your FTP username Your FTP password The FTP hostname An FTP client You can find your FTP username, password and hostname in the client area under the FTP Details section. The FTP password is the same as your hosting account and control panel password, which is different from the password for the client area. If you like videos better then text guides, you can find one at the bot…
If it still doesn’t work, take note of the file size limits which are explained there:

> The InfinityFree web servers have size limits for all files. If the file size exceeds the limit, the file is automatically deleted.

The file is uploaded successfully, but the 404 error is shown. As shown on the screenshot the file is only 8Mb. Maybe it’s reuploading and merging files into one and that is the rare cause of a bug you are looking for.

I think the file manager does some kind of “chunked uploading”. Maybe that’s the issue, but I’m not sure.
