Title: I can not upload now.
Post by: Eadil on July 21, 2007, 03:43:03 PM
Well it worked before. I could single or bulk upload. Now I get an error. The symptoms are that when I go to bulk load after selecting a directory and album it is not creating thumbnails like it used to. I have it set to use GD. Now I installed this a long time ago and don't remember all of my settings. I tried to install ImageMagick but do not have root on my 1and1 server. So I have thumbnails set to 2.0. I had forgotten my admin password and recovered that. I have spent hours on this before posting. Followed all of the upload problem requirements. After  I try the bulk load it gives me the 500 message. Here is the log info on a single http upload:

Ok it is a size problem. These are six megapixel (right from the memory card) jpegs. Which are to large I guess. In config -> Files and Thumbnails I upped the size and I checked Auto resize images that are larger than max width or height to Yes:everyone. But it still won't allow an upload. I don't want to resize these shots by hand. Is there a way to do this during the upload. It looks like they should autoresize right?

OR is there a way to use GD to resize the shots I uploaded. These are just a bunch of reunion photo's I don't want to doctor up.

Keep in mind that image processing is very resource intensive, and more so with bigger files. If you're on shared hosting, your webhost could be unhappy with you trying to process 6 megapixel files on their servers. Just a heads-up. :)

We recommend people do pre-processing on their local computers.

Argh. Well it is my own server. The rub here is I just upgraded my main puter to Vista. Now I need to get cs2 on there. And I'm sure I'll have a hassle with Adobe registering. Why can't things be simple. LOL Thanks for your help! I learned some today. So that is good!


Thanks again!

Sorry for butting in but I agree with TranzNDance. 6 MG photos don't belong online unless all your viewers have 42 inch flat panel monitors or something.
Just think of how long those pics will take to upload with dialup....people still have dialup, especially laptop users who are away from home and are stuck with what is available to them.

Kind regards.

Yup, that's what I was thinking too but didn't include in my reply. :)
