Bug Report: Unable to Download Generated Files from ChatGPT Temporary Chat
Date & Time of Issue:
- Date: March 7, 2025
- Time: 2.30 AM IST
Issue Description:
I encountered an issue while trying to download a PowerPoint file (PPTX) generated by ChatGPT. The system successfully created the file, but when I attempted to download it, I received the following error message:
“Failed to get upload status for /mnt/data/IT_Industry_Presentation.pptx.”
I tried multiple times, and ChatGPT regenerated the file with different names, but the issue persisted. This suggests a possible problem with file uploads or downloads within the ChatGPT environment.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue:
- Asked ChatGPT to generate a PowerPoint presentation.
- ChatGPT confirmed that the file was created and provided a download link.
- When clicking the link, an error occurred: “Failed to get upload status for [file path].”
- Repeated the process with different files, but the issue remained.
Expected Behavior:
- The download link should work correctly, allowing users to download the generated file.
Actual Behavior:
- The system fails to upload the file for downloading, leading to an error.
Impact of the Issue:
- Users cannot download generated files, making the feature unusable for certain tasks.
Additional Notes:
- The issue has been tested multiple times in this session.
- It affects PowerPoint files, but I am unsure if it applies to other file types.
