Trouble Uploading Media

Crow · February 10th, 2007, 08:43 PM

I've tryied to upload a video of 17mb's, the php.ini is set to php_value upload_max_filesize 200M, and when I goto upload the file I get no error, just a page saying it was uploaded but nothing, I then noticed that on the upload page only image file types are showing: Allowable Image Types: jpg,jpeg,png,gif,bmp

tho in the admincp under upload photo options : Acceptable multimedia file types? : .mpeg,.mpg,.avi,.asf,.wmv,.mov

I then tryed the option : Retrieve all images from a URL: from a url where the video was, but same outcome..

Then tried the "Files should already be in" (Folder on my sites host inside the gallery!) and it went thro the yes been uploaded screens and still nothing...

Have you set in admin options to allow multimedia?

If nothing uploads then the file is being dropped by PHP so I would suggest you recheck your php info in the photopost admin to ensure your loading php to accept files those big you can also create a php info file and load a url here for us to see

Yes the setting to allow media uploads is set to yes, I tried to upload a 1.7mb .wmv video but at the end of that one, it said wrong file type allowed, tho as you can see per my last post it is allowed.., On one of my site's that runs 5.21 when on the upload screen it states:

Allowable Image Types:
jpg,jpeg,png
mpeg,mpg,avi,asf,wmv,mov,wav,mp3

Tho on the site in question running 5.62 on the upload page it only shows:

Allowable Image Types: jpg,jpeg,png,gif,bmp

Was something changed from version 5.21 that would cause this?

No as long as multimedia is set to yes it is allowed. This is right out of our uploadphoto.php file

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Thus from what I see allow media is set to NO

Thanks I got that fixed, now the next issue..
Does the "Retrieve all images from a URL:" work with video's also?
if so that doesn't work for me, it does the uploaded, screens but nothing at the end..

No that does not parse pages with video

I'm having a similar problem, how do I check to see what php's max upload size is?

chartwell · June 24th, 2007, 12:43 PM

Ok, I found it:

upload_max_filesize 10M

Changed php.ini to make it 50M

upload_max_filesize = 50M

Still no dice. It looks like it's uploading, then instead of taking you to the next screen where you can edit the title, category, etc. it just refreshes the upload page.

There are other things you want to consider also POST_MAX_SIZE MEMORY_LIMIT MAX_EXECUTION_TIME

With what your suggesting though your server's PHP is dropping the file.

chartwell · June 24th, 2007, 02:43 PM

Thanks Chuck. I changed those other settings and it is working now.
