    • 1.8.4 Issues with Zipped Image Upload Size + Forums

    Posted by _CK posts: 10

    Here are some of my phi.ini settings
    ***************************************
    max_execution_time = 90
    max_input_time = 60
    memory_limit = 32M

    ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
    upload_max_filesize = 30M

    ***************************************

    I am running
    - tiki 1.8.4
    - EasyPHP 1.7
    - Windows XP

    I have a zip file with 6 images in it (size=4.71 mb) which is so much less
    than my "upload_max_filesize = 30M". When I try to upload it I do NOT get any errors, it seems to think and then quit, leaving me still on the Upload Image page....what can I do? Do I keep increasing the max_execution_time?

    Next issue is with FORUMS. I am the administrator....and there is NO WAY that I can see to add a new forum topic ??? I have clicked on everything? Does anyone else share this problem?

    Please post if you have tips for me.

    Thanks so much,

    CK

    Tried changing some settings in the php.ini file to:

    +


    max_execution_time = 900
    max_input_time = 900
    memory_limit = 32M

    +



    I thought maybe if I gave it more time I could upload this zip file
    of images......

    Got the Error:

    +


    Warning: mysql error: MySQL server has gone away in query:
    insert into `tiki_images_data`(`imageId`,`xsize`,`ysize`, `type`,`filesize`,`filetype`,`filename`,`data`) values (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)
    in c:\program files\easyphp1-7\www\tiki\lib\tikidblib.php on line 133

    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in c:\program files\easyphp1-7\www\tiki\lib\tikidblib.php on line 151

    +



    What does this mean???

    Hi CK,

    this means that your SQL does not accept blobs which are bigger than x size.

    I had the same prob, when you switch to store the files in a directory everything works fine. 😁

    By the way, in my opinion it is also better to store big files (>1mb) on the filesystem.

    cu, Pete

    Hey Pete thanks for the reply:

    Your comment:
    "I had the same prob, when you switch to store the files in a directory everything works fine."

    So HOW do I switch to store files in a directory instead of the database?
    (is this even what you mean?)

    Is there a property I have to set?

    Let me know, I am very new to all of this !

    cheers,

    CK

    Ok I have switched to store images in a directory.

    I used the absolute path C:/Program Files/EasyPHP1-7/www/tiki/uploads/

    So everything seems to be ok...except for the FORUMS....I can't seem to

    create a new one no matter what i try....


    any suggestions out there?
