Ebl_batchupload

saccade · 2006-12-22 17:22:18

I’ve got difficulties installing ebl_batchupload on TextDrive. Plugin loads and I can select images. But when I upload there ist an “Error 412”.
I couldn’t find out what this means.
Searching on TextDrive I saw information that there could be a security problem.
Can someone help me?

best regards and merry christmas!
Michael

Had the same 412 error today after upgrading to the latest version of ebl_batchupload. Thought it could have been an error on the infamous Barclay server on TextDrive.

Hello,

I tried to upload some images via ebl_batchupload on localhost, but instead of succesful uploading I’m getting 404 error. I’ve searched the forum but I couldn’t find any useful hint. I’m in despair. Please help.

Plugin works great — thanks for all your work.

A tiny suggestion in function EBL_batchUpload() , because 14pt is actually a font size measurement for print, not for screen. I’ve had good results after changing it to 1.2em :
<code>$style = “display: block; width: 300px; text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.2em;”; </code>

Definitely no big deal, just a suggestion.

I have it working locally for the moment just fine.

One oddity: It strips off the exif data from the processed files. I know, Photoshop’s save for web does too, my guess here is that this occurs when using the resizing feature.

I wish, there where/was a way around that.

regards, marios

Eric. Great plugin. I’ve got it up and running straight away. Just one question.. Would it be possible to add alt tags before upload. At the moment I’m having to open each image individually to put them in. I see it puts in the image title but I don’t necessarily want to name my pics in that way. Thanks

Unfortunately, that would add a bit to much complexity to the plugin to allow individual, specific alt tags. It would be relatively simple to create another plugin that would ease the burden of inputing numerous alt-tags per image. Maybe something that shows thumbnails, followed by a text input box. I’de write it, but I’m a tad busy with this semester at the moment.

Eric, I have correctly installed v.1.0.4 version of the plugin in textpattern 4.0.4. I am running flash 9 plugin on Mac/Safari – OS 10.4. TextPattern Images admin gives me the pop-up window, I browse in my images (have tried 1, 3, and 12 jpegs at a time), and set size to 470 × 700, thumbs at 107 × 150. I hit the upload button processing begins and I see a very small beginning of the green progress bar which promply stops, the list of my images disappears, and I wait…nothing else happens. When I then check the debug box I get nothing, reset also gives me nothing. I ftp into my images folder, permissions set originally to 750, then tried 777. Twice I found a ‘batchupload’ folder there with my images inside but no images show up in TextPattern. Any ideas?

Still getting 412 errors with 1.04 here. Eric? The previous version worked fine for me.

Unfortunately, I have been unable to duplicate the problem with my ibook. The only suggestion that I can offer is to perhaps uninstall/reinstall flash. Does it do this as well with Firefox?

Ditto. I have been unable to duplicate this problem and can’t figure this one out (Precondition Failed.) The only way I could theorize that this error is occuring is that perhaps, you’re using either a proxy, using a download accelerator, or perhaps, your ISP is a little flakey.

Its a TextDrive hosting issue – see this page:

I have had a couple of problems with TXD mod_security issues before. As noted in the KB article, I can disable it in an .htaccess file, but I don’t want to do this all the time! I tried the latest version of ebl_batchupload locally on OSX and it works fine. Its something in the URL’s that triggers it. See also:

Edit: Perhaps you changed something small in the latest version that triggers mod_security?
