Problem Uploading Files

Hi all,

I am in the very early stages of testing Tiki on CentOS6.2.

I have an issue with file uploading (File Galleries) which I hope you can help me with.

I created a file gallery, then a sub-gallery. I then uploaded a jpg image (one of four) to the sub-gallery with no-problem.

Following this successful attempt, I tried to upload the remaining three files (simultaneously). The file upload status page just stuck on the 'Uploading file...' (x3) status page.

I eventually had to cancel the page.

My PHP max upload size is 8MB. The files (images) I am uploading are all below 1MB each.

This same behaviour happens in IE or Firefox. It also does the same thing if I opt to just upload a single additional image.

1) Does anyone know why Tiki would allow me to upload one file successfully but no additionals?
2) Does anyone know a fix?

Thank you!😀

Hayleyit,

I encountered the same problem when first deploying my website, and solved it by increasing not-only PHP UPLOAD_MAX_FILESIZE but some other PHP parm.

My memory is a little dim on this one, but I think it was POST_MAX_SIZE.

Hi larryg,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I jut checked my php.ini and I already have post_max_size set to 8M.

As part of the install I was careful to set the PHP settings as per the Tiki guide. I'm really stumped!

I'll trawl through the php.ini to see if there's anything else which may be relevant.

Thanks 😊


I have tried altering max upload size to 10M (from 8M) and restarting Apache.

But problem persists 😑

Sadly I can't report that I have directly solved this, but I have found a satisfactory work-around, which is to configure Tiki to store its files in a directory as opposed to the database.
