Musescore is failing to upload soundfont
It used to be that every now and then uploading with a soundfont wouldn't work, and i just wouldn't upload it then. But as of recently the past several (at least 5) scores have failed to upload with soundfonts in a row. It started with my most recently uploaded score (that i haven't deleted), which i liked so much i just used a video source instead, which is disappointing because i like to listen to my music in the car, which i use mobile devices for.
I just exported each as an MP3 to see if the exporting has a problem, and they all sound fine. And i am on very stable internet. I see no reason that musescore should fail to upload the soundfont so many times in a row. Just recently i uploaded a score that was literally just a cowbell (it was for a joke) and it failed to upload with soundfont. A song with a bunch of cowbell. That tells me that it isn't just because of my large scores and that something is wrong with musescore. I am on the most recent version of musescore, i save the soundfont to each of the scores that i upload the soundfont with, and i make sure to check the button.
I just repaired and reinstalled musescore. Still the same thing happened. So it is probably something with the musescore servers.
What happens specifically is that it exports the mp3 file and then it starts uploading. It'll get to like 2 percent (sometimes up to 7 if i'm lucky) and then it will sit there for a minute and go back to 0% and zoom up to 100%, and then give me the message that the score failed to upload the audio source. Is there a solution for this? Any ideas of what is wrong? I am getting really annoyed by this because i really don't want to make a video source for every song, and that means i can't listen to it on a mobile device.
I'm sorry if this is a problem already addressed or commonly complained about, but i have found no answers on the internet about this.

Thanks, but it seems that still isn't working. I tried the newest 3.0 and the newest 2.2 versions and neither of them were able to upload the score (the 3.0 version didn't even have an upload button, which makes sense).
This is the score i am using to test if it uploads right, if this helps: https://musescore.com/lincolnpepper/scores/4870668/s/c11009

But 2.2 should at least give you an extra error code when it fails to upload. Which one was it? We're still trying to figure out the root cause for this.

I accidentally sent a ton of replies cause they wouldn't show up and only later saw that they said that they would be verified by you guys. They still aren't up. I expect they wouldn't come up because i put a link in my comment? Anyway i uploaded a video of what has been going on and what happens when i upload scores. If this comment uploads then i guess i can't send you the link so just go to my youtube channel and look at the most recently uploaded video.

Update yall! I just uploaded a score with 2.2 that hasn't been uploaded with any program and it is the first one to upload with soundfont in a long time. It is a very small score with just 3 instruments and 1:25 length, but it is still the first to work in a while. Maybe 2.2 has fixed something. I'll let you know if it fails uploading bigger scores later.
