Yesterday and right now I was getting error messages by uploading attachments here. The message said that maybe my pictures are to big, but they were not. I could save my posts anyway, the attachments are there.
I got this for a 16.48 KB file, just now
The same error happened a few times in my forum as well, but the attachments were sometimes not there after saving the post.
Zip the image and attach the zip please. :)
I got the same error yesterday, I uploaded 2 PNG files about 30kB each one. The files were correctly uploaded but I got an error message:
1.PNG : The post data is missing. This error could be caused by trying to submit a file larger than allowed by the server. Please contact your administrator if this problem continues.
That may be two different errors,
@Ruth could you please report exactly the error message if you encounter it again?
Also, what browser are you using?
I get that error with PNG attachments, if can be useful here is a zip containing one PNG file that returns that error
well, another error message with zip files 1.zip : The post data is missing. This error could be caused by trying to submit a file larger than allowed by the server. Please contact your administrator if this problem continues.
Sorry, I don't know how to zip something, Emanuele. It was the same error as meetdilip said.
I am using opera.
I try to upload the same file again...can see the message here now again:
Same problem when uploading Ruth's file...
What browser Jorin? O:-)
I get that error too using android webview.
I am not sure about this, but this error message seems only to appear, if you are
not admin. If it is happening to me, that the upload failes I will get no message in my forum, if I try the upload again, the picture will be there, but other users sometimes get this error message and the upload failed.
In the error log it is looking like this than:
Rita is using Firefox, she showed me this screenshot. The error message is telling the same:
Getting the same error message with my PNG file attached. I can test my Chrome and IE at home later, if needed.
If it is IE11, the issue is likely:
http://caniuse.com/#feat=xhr2
meh...
I'm using Chrome, so I think is not a browser problem
On FF
Now it should work.
ETA: can someone test with IE? I would be sure it works with it.
Test
Test png from chrome
No problem from chrome
test from IE 11
no error from ie11
Good! :D
No more error is shown while uploading attachments.
Please Emanuele, can you tell, what had been wrong before?
Some of our members are getting sometimes the same error message.
The fix I applied, applies only to 1.1, so I guess it wouldn't make any good for your forum members.
Please, open a new topic and let's try to dig the issue to understand what's broken there. ;)
