For testing purposes I hosted a react-app in my solid-pod by uploading the build directory to it.
This worked ok, but now I wanted to delete the files.
I could delete everything except 2 files: https://harrystminrupt.inrupt.net/public/apps/website/
I have tried
web.inox.app
solid-filemanager
portal(.)inrupt(.)net
but all them throw an internal server error and are unable to delete the files.
I think this is because the files are too big, about 4+ MB.
I also tried deleting them using the node-libraries,
but with solid-node-client (which uses solid-client-authn-js) I canât login to inrupt[.]net (invalid refresh credentials after getting them via getToken)
and with the older solid-file-client (which uses solid-auth-cli)
I get the same internal server error.
What other solutions are there? I think most of them use the same libraries for the deletion under the hood, so is there something wrong with them? How to fix them and make it possible to delete bigger files?
I donât know of all of those which libraries they use, but the ones I know of use different libraries than Penny, so you could try deleting them using that:
(Give them a bit of time to load. Youâll need to sign in in the top right-hand corner to do so.)
That said, âInternal Server Errorâ makes it unlikely that the cause is the library - Iâd expect it to be a problem with the server software. So if that doesnât work, you could try reporting an issue there.
with solid-node-client (which uses solid-client-authn-js)
Only if you specify that as the handler, otherwise it uses solid-auth-fetcher by default.
I canât login to inrupt[.]net (invalid refresh credentials after getting them via getToken)
Inrupt.com uses ESS and the getToken process. Inrupt.net uses NSS and does not yet have a valid getToken system though a PR has been submitted. Currently, the way to login to inrupt.net and NSS is with login sending username and password rather than a token and needs solid-auth-fetcher as the handler. See the solid-node-client README (get latest 2.x version of solid-node-client).

Thank you for the clarification! I tried it and it works now!
Unfortunately this doesnât resolve the internal server error when trying to delete the files.
@Vincent
I havenât seen Penny yet but itâs pretty cool.
Unfortunately it also throws an internal server errorâŚ
so I guess you are right and itâs a problem with the server software.
I will try and create an issue there, thanks!
Hi if you think they are too big, did you try to edit them in the data browser to make them empty, so you can delete it? Do you have more information about the internal error ? 500? Any complementary message ?
I also tried editing them but Iâm not able to open the files for editing in the data browser or any of the mentioned solid-apps. (same error)
The console only says âFailed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)â while the website sometimes displays âasync-lock timed outâ.
when i tried to put them empty, (i saw a message saying that your file did not have a contenttype) i added application/javascript for the .js and i thought they were replaced
