"Select a file you wish to upload" error!

jtnygren · Post by **jtnygren** » Tue 4. May 2004, 20:41

Hello! I changed webserver, copied files to new server and imported SQL dump to new database.

Everything else worked fine, but picture UPLOAD is not working anymore. I use newest 1.1RC4 release. Everytime I try to upload file, phpWcms says that "Select a file you wish to upload".

Files and dirs are chmodded and all paths are correct. Server has phpupload on.

Do you have any ideas??

Could it be becouse register globals is off (not possible to change in this situation)? It seems that phpWCMS loses file parameter on the way to upload.

Dont you have any ideas? Oliver??

Thanks for the best CMS!

I had this problem to once and I think it was that the GD or ImageMagick configs were different. Did you try to tweek them in your config file? I had ImageMagick on when the server didn't have it...I think...

maybe you don't own the files anymore. can you view the ownership of the file?
can you use CHOWN to reclaim the files?

Here are my image configs from conf.inc.php:

$phpwcms["imagick"] = 0; //if 0 = GD, 1 = ImageMagick
$phpwcms["imagick_path"] = ""; //Path to ImageMagick
$phpwcms["use_gd2"] = 1; //if 0 = GD1, 1 = GD2

and here are screenshots:

Everything should be OK, but when I press upload files ::

same error every time. And it is not becouse my firewall settings, becouse it works still to my old server..

I can upload same files to my other installs on different servers...

How actually you fixed the problem?? I dont have ImageMagick active and conf-file is now pointing to right GD version (GD1).

Ok. I think it has something to do with servers security settings. I have tested it with iE, netscape and Opera. Same version works with my other servers.

It seems that server loses uploaded file somewhere and include/inc_tmpl/files.private.upload.tmpl.php (...or something) does not find it anymore when testing with is_uploaded_file() function (This it where phpwcms says "select file you wish to upload"). File should be in $_FILES or $HTTP_POST_FILE but it is not.

maybe upload is forbidden or restricted

Check your phpinfo().

You are maybe right... from my phpinfo():

Code: Select all

file_uploads                         1 1 
upload_max_filesize             512KB 512KB

... BUT ...

Code: Select all

upload_tmp_dir                    no value no value

I'll try to fix this.. Thanks Oliver
