Cannot import NEF files

Bug
1

Expected Behavior

All NEF files are imported correctly

Current Behavior

Certain NEF (raw) files are not imported. At every sync PS tries to import them and fails.
With sync-file from the command line the result is the same.
In the logs I get:

That unfortunately doesn’t help much. The file is accessible and readable by other tools.

This seems similar to the bug (a memory fault) you found in June.

Steps to Reproduce

$ docker exec fdf ./photostructure sync-file --force --debug /pictures/Altre/2018/03/20180326-DSC_4730.NEF

Environment

PS for Docker running on a Ubuntu 18.04
Latest photostructure/server:beta image (ID 8e2c35dfaf9f)

→ How can I test the conversion by hand ? I would like to understand why some NEF are ok and others are not.

Apologies for the glitch! Can you email me that NEF so I can look into it?
