Upload Feature - Not doing anything

I have tried upload MP3s, and Zip files (album/mp3s) on both my Ubuntu 15.04 and 2012r2 server. The upload option will upload files to the incoming folder, but then it does nothing else. The files sit there and I am unable to access them from madsonic (5.1.5240.20150506.1212). Since I have never used this function before, nor can I find information on what is suppose to happen. So I am unsure if I need to manually move the files, or if masonic is suppose to do something with them.

any help or information would be appreciated.

Should I be creating a folder structure of artisit/album/mp3's for zip files before uploading them?

thanks.

I sympathise... I asked some questions too and all I got was silence.

Doesn't give me a lot of confidence in the platform :-(

Madsonic is only reveiving these uploads. You have to look over them manually to make them fit for your way to store music-files and sort them your way.

I would never allow a third person to upload files that directly get sorted in a special way, so I think a feature that automatically sorts uploaded files would be quite useless and lead to a messed up structure anyway.
Do you really trust other people that they deliver you correctly tagged music files?
