Please put the log into a code block (triple backticks on a newline before and after).

Do you have ntp enabled in the config? It is disabled by default. Do you really need it? If you don't know, then you probably do not need it. Most deployments don’t need ntp unless the host clock is unreliable. If you'd need it, you'd notice it.

In config.toml simply omit tg.ntp, or if you want to be explicit, do:

[tg]
ntp = false

If you use config.yml:

tg:
  ntp: false

If you use environment variables, either unset TELDRIVE_TG_NTP or set it to TELDRIVE_TG_NTP=false.

If you need ntp enabled, either your firewall is blocking UDP port 123 or the ntp server on 162.159.200.123 (time.cloudflare.com) is down, but that's highly unlikely.

I tried with ntp=false, now initially it shows uploading but it fails

The two log lines you provided don't suggest anything.

Please try again with the log level set to "debug". Start with teldrive and db, and if you see nothing obvious, then enable telegram logging as well (lots of noise).

You could also inspect the console log of the webui client in your browser.

I enabled all logging but I did not find anything useful. The browser console also did not have any logs. I will describe my current setup. I am running teldrive and postgres in a debian machine through docker. I am accessing it locally through another machine. The logs:

I ran teldrive in my own device (mac) through docker and it is working fine.

[Anonymous-AAA]

Other thing I observed is that POST http request does not happen during upload in my teldrive instance.

[Anonymous-AAA]

To reproduce the issue access the web UI through the local IP address of the machine, instead of using localhost. I feel like the issue could be in the UI as the post request for upload is not made. I ran the code through Gemini, it pointed to line 130 of upload-file.ts. It recommended to change the line

          const partName = randomChunking
            ? md5(crypto.randomUUID())
            : totalParts > 1
              ? `${fileName}.part.${zeroPad(partIndex + 1, 3)}`
              : fileName;

to

          const partName = randomChunking
            ? md5(crypto.randomUUID ? crypto.randomUUID() : Math.random().toString(36))
            : totalParts > 1
              ? `${fileName}.part.${zeroPad(partIndex + 1, 3)}`
              : fileName;

The reason it gave was

The issue is caused by the crypto.randomUUID() function in src/components/upload/upload-file.ts.
In modern browsers, crypto.randomUUID() is a Web Crypto API that is only available in a Secure Context (i.e., when the page is served over https:// or http://localhost). When you access the Web UI from your local IP address (e.g., http://192.168.x.x:8080), it's not considered a secure context, so crypto.randomUUID is undefined. This causes the upload script to throw a TypeError: crypto.randomUUID is not a function, failing the file upload immediately before it even tries to send chunks.

I am not sure if its the issue as I could not test it out.
