Anyone have this problem as well?

The download apparently happened on the Mender side because everything went successfully, yet there is nothing in /home/dev/Desktop/ota\_upload/ for example actually downloaded (a .zip I upload as a single-file artifact). I have the app sometimes checking that file for existence of a zip file then unzipping it properly. I even turned off all that logic so that nothing is done with the file - there’s nothing running on my machine that will delete it.

So it’s as if mender just decided to stop working for single file artifact device uploads…

Solved it. IDK how / maybe SCP was running. Not sure. Anyway, it works again.
