File Upload Fail

Patty_OZUTES

Hey I have this plugin installed in my forum and it was working fine then this started happening, I have uninstalled it and re installed it and the same thing happens

peregrine

check and see if the path where your are saving files has 777 permissions.

check the $SavePath variable around 725 in class.fileupload.plugin.php

 $SavePath = MediaModel::PathUploads().$SaveFilename;

422

Could be theres a space in the filename

Patty_OZUTES

Never had that problem before, just tried it without spaces and yeah still giving me the same message.

Ill check that out now

This is what I have

     if (!$Handled) {
        // Build save location
        $SavePath = MediaModel::PathUploads().$SaveFilename;
        if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
           @mkdir(dirname($SavePath), 0777, TRUE);
        if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
           throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not save the file.", 9, $FileName);

        // Move to permanent location
        $MoveSuccess = @move_uploaded_file($FileTemp, $SavePath);
        if (!$MoveSuccess)
           throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not move the file.", 9, $FileName);

So you can't upload any files at all or just a specific one?

Can it make the directory is the big question.
Just because the command is there doesn't mean it can do it successfully.

If not manually create it. If that is the issue. You won't know until you verify where it is trying to write the file and if it has permission to do so.

   if (!$Handled) {
    // Build save location
    $SavePath = MediaModel::PathUploads().$SaveFilename;
    if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
    @mkdir(dirname($SavePath), 0777, TRUE);

    // try this to get some more info.
    var_dump($SavePath);

  if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
    throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not save the file.", 9, $FileName);
    // Move to permanent location
    $MoveSuccess = @move_uploaded_file($FileTemp, $SavePath);
    if (!$MoveSuccess)
    throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not move the file.", 9, $FileName);

to better identify problem

change this temporarily from

if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
               throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not save the file.", 9, $FileName);

to

  if (!is_dir(dirname($SavePath)))
               throw new FileUploadPluginUploadErrorException("Internal error, could not save the file in $SavePath  .", 9, $FileName);

then you will probably see that you need to change permissions and/or ownership in the /vanilla/uploads directory.

the group ownership should be the web owner.

the permissions for the group needs to be writeable.

so if the error is

File upload failed. Reason:

    (test.png) Internal error, could not save the file in /var/www/vanilla/uploads/FileUpload/fe/0648a00de6072d5d94b37e737dc02a.png.


the problem is with uploads.

the directory preceding FileUpload in the path must allow directory creation (through the privileges above).

Yeah I looks like it was a permissions thing, Thanks for that peregrine, looks like its working now.

also what 422 said about spaces in filenames can get you in trouble. I would avoid them at all costs. Use underscore or dash.
