various: Improve error reporting if missing file server module on 0.12 If there is some error loading net.http.files then it would be swallowed by the pcall and then it would proceed to trying mod_http_files, which might cause unexpected behavior on 0.12 Ref #1765

summary: mod_http_upload to mod_http_file_share migrator
labels:
- Stage-Alpha
---


This is a migration script for converting records of [mod_http_upload]
into the format used by the new [mod_http_file_share][doc:modules:mod_http_file_share]
which will be available with Prosody 0.12 (currently in trunk).

# Usage

If your main `VirtualHost` is called "example.com" and your HTTP upload
`Component` is called "upload.example.com", then this command would
convert records of existing uploads via [mod_http_upload] to
[mod_http_file_share][doc:modules:mod_http_file_share]:

```bash
sudo prosodyctl mod_migrate_http_upload upload.example.com example.com
```

In order to preserve URLs you will need to configure the
[path][doc:http#path_configuration] to be the same as mod_http_upload:

```lua
Component "upload.example.com" "http_file_share"
http_paths = {
    file_share = "/upload"
}
```
