Files Stuck Up My Assets on ai2.appinventor.mit.edu server

Files stuck up my Assets on ai2.appinventor.mit.edu

This started over the weekend, and persists now.

I had lazily been diagnosing oversized .bky and .scm files in my blocks_repair_kit Project using the Companion against uploads to my Project's Media folder.

Project ID: https://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/?autoload=false#5862914140274688

Unfortunately, attempts to delete those uploads from the Media folder fail with a Try Again Later message.

I am worried this might be endemic, and might indicate a need to address how Media file delete requests are handled for big files, to avoid clogging the ai2 file servers.

Project ID: https://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/?autoload=false#5862914140274688

Note: I have copied the essentials of this app to another Project (Screen and its components and their event blocks, procedures and global inits), so the project in question can be deleted from the server. I am leaving it in place to help MIT assess the problem.
