Server error: could not save one or more files. Please try again later!

[SindyDMC]

Hello,

I tried the free version and noticed some limitations, so I decided to upgrade to premium, hoping for better performance and smoother APK/AAB exports. But it turns out there’s no difference from the free version. It’s still slow when testing on Companio, and when I try to export to APK or AAB, I keep getting this error from Kodular’s server: ‘Server error: could not save one or more files. Please try again later!’

I’m hoping someone in this forum can explain what’s going on and suggest a solution.

Thanks!

Upload your project to https://unchive.kodular.io to get some statistics about your project and provide a screenshot of the result overview

Use different screens wisely Before starting to create another screen, first you should think about is it really necessary? See also Building apps with many screens and SteveJG’s post about advantages/disadvantages, because in only one screen you also can use vertical arrangements to simulate different screens, just set the arrangements to visible = true/false as needed… If you decided to use different screens, then you should switch them correctly, else you will run out of memory after a wh…

Thanks for the guidance, Taifun! I’ll give it a try.

By the way, can you tell me the maximum file size limit for images/assets to make sure they upload safely?

Also, why doesn’t Kodular provide a warning or notification when an image/asset exceeds the limit and might cause issues later?

There is no fix limit
Also it looks like you coukd simplify your project. . Reuse your components. . There is no need to use 133 webviewers in one project… same for the other components

Don't repeat yourself

I’m using WebViewer to display HTML files stored in assets and PDF catalogs (14 books) saved on Google Drive. The goal is to reduce storage usage in Kodular. Based on your suggestion to minimize asset usage, I’m actually planning to move more files to Google Drive and display them using WebViewer.

Is there another way to display HTML and PDF files from Google Drive without using WebViewer? If so, could you share a tutorial link?

Thanks!

I’ve also deleted all assets, leaving it completely empty to make sure the server error isn’t caused by asset capacity. But even after exporting to AAB or APK, it still doesn’t work the same server error message keeps appearing.

only 1 webviewer would be sufficient do display as much html pages of pdf files as you want, you do not need 133 different webviewers

Thank you Taifun, for taking the time to respond and help.

How can I display multiple HTML files (from assets) and PDFs (from Google Drive) in different menu sections while using only one WebView? Could you provide me with a tutorial?

Thanks!

@SindyDMC

in different menu sections

Can you elaborate on this?
Use the GoToUrl method to open the html or the pdf

The example you provided shows how to display a single URL (HTML/PDF) in one WebViewer. But as you suggested, I want to display multiple URLs (HTML/PDF) using just one WebViewer across different pages/menus.

Could you give me an example of how to do this?

Hopefully, this image helps clarify how I’m using WebViewer to display multiple HTML/PDF files across different pages/menus.

Please take a look and let me know if there are any mistakes or better solutions

Thanks!"
