Videos are uploaded to local storage instead of object storage

PeerTube
1

Hello.
I’m using R2 object storage, but for some reason some videos are uploaded to my local server instead of R2.
I tried using the script below but it didn’t work and it slowed down the server.
How can I upload all my videos to R2?

2 
Cannot create move to object storage for "Video Title": job creation may have failed or there may be pending transcoding jobs for this video

This will be displayed.

3

It seems that moving video files larger than 2GB fails.

4

Check your config: PeerTube/config/default.yaml at develop · Chocobozzz/PeerTube · GitHub

If it’s the same value as in the template, can you paste your server logs?

5

Can I view the server logs via the GUI?

6

max_upload_part is 5GB in my Peertube instance.

7

Set it to the default value (100MB)

I tried setting max_upload_part to 100MB and some videos were able to be moved to R2 but some were not.
I confirmed that videos that could not be moved would have an error like this.
