Eric

I am getting a 403 error even with permissions set to 777. when i delete the batchupload folder i still get a 403, not a 404 as expected. also confused about wether batchupload and swf should be in domain.com/ or domain.com/textpattern/

at the top left of the upload screen it says “undefined” which im guessing points toward some kind of problem. the categories do appear in the drop down list

This plugin is still not working for me. 404 errors all the way.

The files are indeed sitting in my textpattern directory as instructed, but the plugin wont see my upload folder. I tried naming it “Batchupload” “batchUpload” and “batchUploads” , also tried chmodding to 755 and 777, but no dice.

My site is running on Dreamhost if that makes any difference.

Edit: I also notice on the version I just downloaded from your site (1.0) that the help file still mistakenly shows “batchupload” as the folder.

check the second line of the plugin source in your plugin administration and use the name that is given there:

$GLOBALS[‘upload_dir’] = “batchupload”;

Thanks for the pointer aba. I can now upload files, but no resize action here. Debug mode called up tons of errors.. Ive emailed them to Eric so hopefully he will be able to sort it out.

Ace – I havent’ received an email from you with these errors. Could you send again?

Ace of Dubs · 2006-12-01 07:49:50

Hmm, the email form on your site must be broken. The weird part is that I am not getting errors anymore…havent touched the setting or changed anything but now files wont upload at all. I get no 404s, it just sits there. So strange. Before I was getting this long error list in XML format by debugging but now I get nothing at all. Another interesting thing to note is that no categories are showing up by default when they were before.

Wish I had saved those errors!

stef25 · 2006-12-01 10:16:55

can some one tell me where to find the output from running the swf in debug mode?

Ace of Dubs · 2006-12-03 15:52:26

It will usually output it right inside the field next to the debug checkbox.

UPDATE: The plugin’s performance continues to deteriorate. I have touched any settings or moved any files on my server. Right now what is happening is that I will upload photos and it appears that they go through, I get no warnings/errors but when I look at my db of images I see they are just not showing up. Also, my categories are still not showing up in that dropdown menu…there are in fact no categories at all.

I’m going to try it on a fresh install to see what happens..

Ace – Is there a way I can see how you have this plugin installed?

TheEric · 2006-12-04 17:38:15

This plugin has been updated to version 1.02

New Features:

Automatic installation and chmodding of processing directory. Files directory must be writable.
Corrected txpath utilization.
Improved thumbnailing. This version adds improved thumbnailing that is user adjustable, and makes use of textpattern’s UnsharpMask() function. I did not add a flash side toggle for this, as this can be VERY cpu/memory intensive and take several minutes to process a batch of image uploads. To enable the higher quality settings, one has to go into the plugin and change FALSE to TRUE and edit the value from it’s default, to anywhere from 1-100.
Dynamic Memory Management. I integrated a nifty routine from php net that will adjust the memory allocated to the script per image, (only) if your webserver supports memory_get_usage() and ini_set(‘memory_limit’)

Before Installing:

Existing Users: If this plugin is currently already working for you: first, disable the original plugin and rename upload.swf to upload.old and then install this plugin.
This changes the location of the batchupload processing folder to textpattern/files/batchupload – The user no longer needs to create this folder.

Still to do

Alternate Languages. I’m still debating how best to process with this.
Lite version. A multiple upload feature without the resizing/thumbnails options, for more than just image files.

Obviously in one of my installations ebl_batchupload isn’t allowed to create a directory (error message).
(Unformtunately due to live/running status of the site I immediately reverted before copying the message).
I will first try on another installation.

EDIT:
No, the same on another webspace. Even if I create the subdirectories manually (and 777 them), it’s the same. The path in the following error message seems to be correct though. Cannot understand what’s wrong.

bcc.. Upload Path Not Found.

Attempt to correct has failed.
