User experiencing server error when trying to upload(new install)

[dazle]

hi

I've created a normal user, which i can upload with from my pc and laptop fine, however my 1st registered user says they receive a server error when trying to upload. i created a new profile for them under them same group as the test user i created but they are receiving the same error message when uploading of...

"coppermine ErrorNo file was uploaded!If you have really selected a file to upload, check that the server allows file uploads..."

the user i created is just a normal default 'registered' user, i have not created any additonal groups, hence effective permissions are as the same of the user with this problem

i have tried a couple of tweaks as mentioned, like simple file upload creating temp / tmp root dir's with 777 permissions but to no avail

i can see this seems a bit of a hot topic, however i am yet to come across a post where this works for some users and not for others

any ideas?

i'm using  v 1.5.12

thanks in advance

As per the rules, could you please provide a link to your gallery

What is the file size of the image your user is trying to upload?

oops: http://dovecarnival.org.uk/photos/

they copied and pasted the error message, however i thought the same regarding file size too due to fancy camera filesize(2mb now) however in troubleshooting i tried uploading a file in excess of 2 meg but was prompted immediately by file size exceeds allowed

Please provide a test user account which is able to upload files to your gallery.

I successfully uploaded some files. Please check your PHP settings upload_max_filesize and post_max_size.

[dazle]

upload_max_filesize  = 2mb(that's what i've set

post_max_size = 8mb

Uploading files upto 2mb worked as expected if I remember right. What's the actual issue?

[dazle]

yeah. i can upload fine too

i reset the users password, logged in as them and could upload fine. i created a new profile for them, which i can upload from, however they are still given the message:

"coppermine ErrorNo file was uploaded!If you have really selected a file to upload, check that the server allows file uploads..."

as i only implemented the gallery in the past week, i have no idea how many users will be denied uploads

Ask the user to upload files smaller than 2mb. I also got that error message while exceeding the PHP limit in my testbed. So I guess your users also get this message because the files they are trying to upload are too big.
