uploads.. but doesn't

[andrew319]

I am trying to set up coppermine on my server. (using Ubuntu )

I can upload the iamges to the server, in the "upload image" thing. but when it goes to the page where you have to define the title of the images, the "preview" doesn't show up or upload.....

[Nibbler]

Check through the sticky - http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24088.0

If it's public, please provide a link and a non-admin test user account with upload rights after adjusting the settings as suggested above.

[JoseyGirl]

I am a newbie to web pages. Please be patient. I DID do a search but couldn't find this particular error.....
I am having a similar problem in that the picture seems to upload but doesn't show the little thumbnail, and after I select the album to place it in, the screen tells me both that "The previous file could not be placed" and "You have successfully placed all the files."
So far I have added the '&' fix to my xp_publish.php file in case that was it. But no change. Then I did the "add single file" change and the debug deal. So...when I select to "display phpinfo" I go through the list and I see everything I pasted below. At the almost end is the HTTP_MOD_Security_Message "Warning. Error normalizing REQUEST.URI. Invalid character detected [47]."
Is that the root of my problems with uploading this picture:  http://www.jjbechtel.com/.fantasticodata/Coppermine_Photo_Gallery/Warda_Race/WardaJayMud.jpg

If so, how do I fix that?  I am pretty new to all this php stuff and don't know much about scripting. I would just like to make a nice little photo album. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

[Joachim Müller]

don't post phpinfo unless requested, may be a security risk to do so.

[fade2grey]

I'd be interested to see the solution to that one too - let me know if you get any help.

[kegobeer]

http://coppermine-gallery.net/tutorial/uploads/troubleshooting.php

[keithl]

I'm having the same problem

[kegobeer]

@kiethl: Pick a topic and stay with it.  I will not bounce back and forth between two topics.  Either post here or in your original topic, not both.

[hostile]

http://coppermine-gallery.net/tutorial/uploads/troubleshooting.php

I have 1.4.2 and my group panel looks nothing like that...

[JoseyGirl]

I thank Mr. GauGau for the advice!

For Fade2Grey and kiethl:

I went through the troubleshooting again per kegobeer's sucint reply. My group panel also looks different but I persevered.  This time I clicked on the little yellow "?" in the top bar and saw that for single file setting I have to set the URI limit to 0 (although I would prefer to use the URI address to upload the picture...).Once I saved that setting and tried to upload the picture again from my hard drive I received this error message:

The file 'albums/userpics/10001/WardaJennMud.JPG' can't be inserted in the album
Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 127
etc. etc.

So I checked other threads about ImageMagick and opted not to install ImageMagick...so went to config and marked to use "GD2" to resize my images instead.

This has worked!!! I now have an image in my photoalbum.

Now, it seems I have to learn a little something about ftp to upload batch files?? I'll be starting from scratch as ftp is all new to me and I was hoping to avoid using it to work on my web page.  Also have to read DOCUMENTATION as I never even realized loading ImageMakick was a possible need-to-do (that was a left-fielder). Good luck to you all as well!

Oy, what a learning experience!

[Joachim Müller]

although I would prefer to use the URI address to upload the picture...)

Now that you have solved your upload issues, it's safe to go back to the group settings as they used to be before, it was only a temporary setting to trouble-shoot things. Thanks for resolving your issue.

[kcornish]

Thanks to JoseyGirl for the GD2 configuration change. I had this working under Windows, but couldn't figure out why it failed under Linux. I don't know what the issue is with ImageMagick and Linux, but I sure am happy this works now.
