[edit] Cleaned up post - SaWey

It is funny to see how much people really read the docs?
Please read them and do as suggested

ricmessier

Somehow, snide replies to people trying to use the software doesn't seem to be overly helpful to me. I've been using Coppermine for something like 3 years now and the HTTP upload always worked previously. I don't have FTP on my server and don't intend to install it just for the purpose of using this software.

I don't see anywhere in the documentation you provided the link to which would suggest to me that the error I was receiving had anything to do with what you suggested I read. Strangely enough, the Web site has a link which reads, quite clearly, Upload File. Imagine my surprise when one of the developers suggests to me that the link is patently incorrect and I shouldn't use it. You mean I trusted the interface to tell me what to do and for the interface behavior to remain consistent across releases? How silly of me.

Thanks for your reply. I'll either learn to ignore the interface with Coppermine or find other software that's a little more helpful to use.

Thanks,
Ric

I'm not telling you there's a solution for you in those docs, but it does tell you how to request support.
Without the needed info, we are unable to help you.

So please read again and do as suggested in there.

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMsnide replies to people trying to use the software doesn't seem to be overly helpful to me.
From the docs:
QuoteWhen people have issues with uploading and decide to post their question on the Coppermine support board, they usually are told to read this upload troubleshooting section. Many of them fail to do so properly, which results in frustration both for users as well as supporters. To make this absolutely clear: the above mentioned steps are absolutely mandatory, no matter what skill level you have, no matter what upload method you have troubles with. Failing to do exactly as suggested will result in your request for help being ignored. Yes, this applies to you. We mean it!
What kind of answers do you expect? When signing up to this board, you agreed to respect board rules. One of them say that you're suppossed to read the docs before asking questions. You obviously failed to do so. We (the supporters) are fed up having to answer the same questions over and over again that are being covered in the docs. That's why you got a simple answer (not a snide reply).

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMI've been using Coppermine for something like 3 years now and the HTTP upload always worked previously.
Fine. Then let's try to figure out what went wrong. We can help you to do so if you do as suggested in the docs.

You don't have to. Nobody said so. The docs don't say so. How is that related?

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMI don't see anywhere in the documentation you provided the link to which would suggest to me that the error I was receiving had anything to do with what you suggested I read.
We need to see your gallery. Hence the suggestion in the docs that you need to post a link.

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMStrangely enough, the Web site has a link which reads, quite clearly, Upload File. Imagine my surprise when one of the developers suggests to me that the link is patently incorrect and I shouldn't use it.
Who said so?

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMYou mean I trusted the interface to tell me what to do and for the interface behavior to remain consistent across releases? How silly of me.
How silly of you not to actually read the suggestion in the docs, yeah. We didn't say that the upload process changed in coppermine. But as you suggested, things used to work and now stopped working. So we'll have to figure out what changed. This might be something your webhost did (e.g. updating the webserver). To be able to tell, we'll need to see your page.

Quote from: ricmessier on February 16, 2008, 03:28:13 AMThanks for your reply. I'll either learn to ignore the interface with Coppermine or find other software that's a little more helpful to use.
OK, if you're a quitter, then go ahead and use another application. We offered you help. You turned it down. That's sad for you, not for us - we don't earn a penny if you use the app we provide for free, nor do we earn anything from providing free support. I suggest to review your attitude: it's you who owes us something, not vice versa. I strongly doubt that you'll get lucky using another application, since the problem seems to lie in your attitude.
