Photo upload failed: ${errorText}

Error message

Photo upload failed: ${errorText}

What it means

MeWeProvider.uploadPhoto posts the multipart form to MeWe's photo upload endpoint and the response was not ok. The thrown Error includes MeWe's raw error response text (errorText), which usually carries the actual reason (auth, quota, file type).

Solutions

1. Inspect errorText in the thrown message for the exact MeWe reason
2. Re-authenticate the MeWe integration (session cookies expire)
3. Reduce image size/format (JPEG/PNG under MeWe limits)
4. Check for upstream code changes if MeWe altered its private API

catch (e) { if (/^Photo upload failed:/.test((e as Error).message)) { /* parse MeWe reason from text */ } }

When it happens

Trigger: Multipart photo upload to MeWe returns non-2xx — expired session, unsupported/corrupt image, size limit, or endpoint change in MeWe's private API.

Common situations: MeWe is an unofficial integration: private API endpoints/headers change without notice; also invalid/expired auth cookies and oversized images.
