Doesn't upload files. Once you press "Upload", it works for 5 seconds, then spits out "Failed to publish file!". No load on the network during this time. I checked the firewall and it doesn't seem to block anything portal related. It was working last time I used it (~ a week ago). Any suggestions?

It could be that there's a problem with the steam services, that happens some times.
Best thing is to try again later. If it still doesn't work, make sure that your antivirus doesn't run p2map_publish in a sandbox or something.

Make sure that you are uploading Map.BSP files.
Make sure that your firewall doesn't block any of the steam services.
Make sure that you are logged to steam propely (not offline mode).
Make sure that your map doesn't have "3" in it or gaben will eat you,

Yup. And a @relay_pti_level_end relay triggered at the end.

No custom content or anything connected to pakrat and this sort of stuff.

Because of my pc, I did separate map parts and then combined them in one as instances. Could this be the problem? The gameplay doesn't really change when you combine them, but it's a separate .vmf file of only 3 instances (the parts).

EDIT: Tried to put it without using instances. Still nothing.

Some progress. It appears to be that it only uploads files under ~9 mb of size. What could cause that?

Pretty sure there's a workshop limit of 10 megabytes.
