The test files for Beta that the Systems team gave me had no duplicate file named so i
assumed that their were none. Its my fault for not checking all the data.
I will simply have to spend time locating and re uploading each one of these files
Thanks

It would be a good idea to do some testing on the beta
server before using
the GWtoolset in production, it's a lot of work to make changes to large
numbers of files on Commons. These type of mistakes will then be filtered
out by the time you do a batch upload. Here is a write-up
<http://www.beeldengeluid.nl/en/blogs/research-amp-development-en/201407/first-batch-upload-wikimedia-commons-using-gwtoolset>
of
my own workflow.
As for filenames, each name must be unique. So try and create a unique name
by using e.g. the title field, identifier field and date as a combination.
Good luck,
Jesse
