error opening file because there is no such file

[cikcoh]

HI, i tried to upload my file to cloud server using filetransfer.upload(); and it returns the error

Error opening file file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/E42EB84C-7664-416A-B6D0-AB9175B3593B/tmp/com.oas.MyJiranV1-Inbox/testfile.pdf: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=260 "The file “testfile” couldn’t be opened because there is no such file."

is it because it is stored in the temp folder?

I noticed in the console, the actual path is actually:
picked URL file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/D25F57DC-CB24-41B2-BCEA-BB31B2504572/Documents/testfilepdf with the Inbox copy file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/E42EB84C-7664-416A-B6D0-AB9175B3593B/tmp/com.oas.MyJiranV1-Inbox/testfile.pdf

do i have to copy it to a folder to be able to upload it?

+1 on this.
The file at the returned path seems to persist for a couple minutes or so, then disappears.
May be related to #29 and also This comment.
Not sure if this is a known bug in iOS or something that needs to be managed in the plugin itself somehow.
As a workaround we copied the file inside the app's library folder, even though it's not desirable since we are going to pick big files (may be 1Gb files or so).

Pinging @jcesarmobile to share this informations.

I have the same issue.

But for me the file isn't available even just a few seconds after choosing it. That renders the plugin unusable for me.
