XUpload - No directory is created in temp-dir

[Millennium]

Hi,

I'm using the free Xupload 2.6 - and I have a problem. On my local configuration everything works fine.

But after changing the configuration (paths etc.) for my "real" server and uploading the files I got following problem: clicking on upload file causes the popup status window to appear, but immediately after that it says transfer completed even if the transfer is running.

I found out that no directory is created in the temp-dir while uploading the file. So I assume the problem is there is noch flength, right? But why is that??

Right. That's probably cause of wrong temp folder path in config. It should be full, from root, e.g. '/var/www/vhosts/mysite.com/cgi-bin/temp'

I saw some users use URL(http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/temp) instead of path or relative path(/cgi-bin/temp), this is not correct.

Also old CGI.pm version can cause this. Try to update CGI perl module.

Ok, thanks for that. My path should be ok, if I compare it with my local config (where it IS working).

I'll try to find out if the cgi.pm could be the problem.

Oh, something new: I still don't know the version of the cgi.pm but now I've tried to upload a file with Firefox - and there it's working perfect! Is it possible that the Internet Explorer is causing this problem?

Hmm...
in upload_status.cgi replace

Code: Select all

for(1..3)

with

Code: Select all

for(1..10)

I think IE open pop-up first and upload request is a bit slow.
This should help.
Also check for JS errors in IE.

Hm, I tried 1..10 and 1..30 - same result. The only difference is the time between the appearance of the popup and the text "Transfer complete".

[Millennium]

First of all - thanks for your help so far.

I tried to collect some more information - upload in IE is working, but the popup window does not show anything but "Transfer complete". And while trying an upload with IE no flength is created in the temp-dir.

With Firefox everything works fine. Do you still have an idea what could be wrong here?

[PilgrimX182]

I really think there is JavaScript error happen in IE. Turn on JS error notification in Advanced Settings. Or you can PM me URL to your script so I diagnose it quickly.

[Millennium]

Ok, now I've turned on the JS error Notification - but nothing happens.

[Millennium]

AAAARGH!!!! Now I've got it! We have a firewall, a virus scanner and a proxy server - but with Firefox I'm using another proxy without firewall an virus scanner.
