ScottyToledo Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I invited some of my Moderators to the test board to help me test things out. Well, one of them is having trouble uploading. I have the permissions set to unlimited upload space, and yet, when he tries to upload, it times out. I have no trouble uploading though. Are there any more settings, besides the obvious ones, that I should be looking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elemental Crisis Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Yeah, how big is the file he is trying to upload and what is his internet connection and is it wired or wireless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyToledo Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Yeah, how big is the file he is trying to upload and what is his internet connection and is it wired or wireless.It's just a small banner. And I know he's on broadband. The upload limit for my hosting service is 7MBs per upload, and the file is way under that. And yes, I have plenty of free space on my hosting service, over 20GBs worth. So that shouldnt be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyToledo Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 So is there anything I can do to fix this? Could it be a bug, a server issue or am I just screwed? My forum relies heavily on uploads. And if I cant get this figured out, I may as well forget about installing the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phinsup Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I have an issue as well with one of the people testing my install, I have had no issues, however he gets no error message, it just says uploading and hangs there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ech0 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Is it an allowed attachment type in the ACP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Hmmmm.... Netscape hasn't been used in ages. Have him try IE, and if that works recommend FireFox.(Well it hasnt has very much popularity... Back in the day it was the "FireFox" of the times until Microsoft killed it. Still around, but not as widely used). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phinsup Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 IE 6 worked fine. Go figure there is a browser crappier then IE :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 IE 6 worked fine. Go figure there is a browser crappier then IE :DI think it has more to do with Netscape is very much out of date and barely managed anymore. In-fact (just checked) there is an 8.x version of it now. And as far as I know the "good developers" that were working on Netscape when Netscape was popular moved to the Mozilla FireFox project. It has been a while... but I don't think IE was built into windows at the time and you could get it separately... After IE was built into windows it was all over... I think there was a huge legal battle about this several years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwe Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Hi, I have the same prob with IE6.0.29 and FF1.0.7 in 2.2B1 and 2.2B2think its caused by some local settings, but I havent found out the reason yet.In FF its just "hanging" after pressing the upload button. Somehow its not really hanging since I still can go back...In IE its a little bit strange: the file goes into the attachment-list after upload, but when putting it into the post the whole domain is blocked for about 5 minutes in IE and FF (over domains still work). If I just wait this 5 minutes - before putting it into the post - it works.Updated already to SunJava 1.5.0_06-b05. Still not working.Tried without firewall. Also not working.Maybe anyone has an idea what other kind of setting may can cause thisUwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry - AKA Dumbledore Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Check your AV software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwe Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Check your AV software.tried with av-guard switched off. Didnt help. AV-updates and scans are running daily. Any more suggestions? Wouldnt really like to rebuilt the whole system. There didnt come out any other problem with any other website yet...Uwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock T Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I'm sure it's posted above and I just don't see it, but make sure the user has cleared his/her browsing cache. Might be something left in there conflicting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
