Description
Our group has been using Extension:SimpleBatchUpload (1.5.0) extensively, but unfortunately we are running into an issue where files are uploaded but fail to be written as a row in the _fileData MW db table or saved to our Cargo db table. To the end user error appears as red highlighted text: ERROR: Server communication failed. We have checked our web server logs during uploads but cannot identify any server issues. Currently running MediaWiki 1.31.1, PHP 7.2.11 (apache2handler). Thank you for your help.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the upload with MediaWiki 1.31.1, PHP 7.2.11, and Extension:SimpleBatchUpload 1.5.0, then trace why the upload does not create rows in _fileData or the Cargo table. Done means uploaded files are written to both tables without the “Server communication failed” error.
