Whenever I try to upload a picture using URI/URL, I click submit and it just hangs. Eventually it comes up with 0 files downloaded and the following error:
The following uploads encountered errors:
URI/URL Uploads:
File Name/URL Error Message
1. http://nintendudes.com/fakes/small/mini_rev_metroid3a.jpg Could not open URI.
.. that's the imge I'm trying to upload (off my own server)
also, I enabled the debug thing.. here's the errors I get:
-------
While executing query "SELECT VERSION() as version" on 0
mySQL error: Lost connection to MySQL server during query
-------
Warning: fopen(http://nintendudes.com/fakes/rev_metroid3a.jpg): failed to open stream: Operation timed out in /www/n/nintendudesc/htdocs/gallery/upload.php on line 1628
--------
Thanks in advance

Check that allow_url_fopen is enabled on your server.
after checking with my webhost I finally did find the problem. fopen is allowed by default.
the problem comes from the way that powweb structures their servers. so instead of doing:
http://nintendudes.com/....
i had to type:
http://localhost.nintendudes.com/....
that did the trick. And all this time I never even tried uploading from a different website, but they all work!
thanks for the help!
