URGENT IO ERROR!!

angieluckyd

I kept getting an IO error with the script even thou I have turned off Apache's security there is still a problem. I can upload the files onto my server on my apple but not on my windows computer this is very annoying because i want to publish my website. I have put an error check in which has come back with these errors:

error HTTP: 406
error IO: Error #2038

the test script is at http://www.chatuh.com/pictureupload.php

what is going on i do not understand why i cannot upload from my windows but i can on the mac this is so weird???

check out this site http://tech.shantanugoel.com/2008/05/01/http-406-errors-galore.html it indicates that it's a mod_security issue. I know you switched it off, but still read the article. Also I take it on the PC your only testing it with Internet Explorer? have you tried it with firefox on the PC. IE is very sensitive and strict when it comes to syntax. If you have even a minor syntax problem in your code it would explain why it's working in one and not the other.

I have tested it on firefox,internet explorer and also opera. And i have got some of my friends to try and upload and this still keeps happening? thank you for the article will read it and get back to you.

My problem is similar.

Error IO 2038 (I dont get an http error) happens when I select average 10 files:

First 3 files gets uploaded successfully.
Random 5 images are set to IO Errors
Last images are uploaded successfully.

I've tried these on:
Windows XP - Firefox and Internet Explorer - Flash 10 both
Windows Vista - Firefox (Not on mine since my progress bar gets to 100% in 1 sec)

NB: I've also tried this on the demo on the site - same things happened.

I applied the php settings and the apache settings as well in .htaccess.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

Thomas, your problem has to do with you php.ini settings. The upload sequence that flash sends to the upload script doesn't actually completely terminate until all the files are uploaded. So if you have you php upload limits set to 6Mb and you upload 10 2Mb files only the first 3 will be uploaded because the php side does not understand it was infact 3 separate files all under 6Mb. Increase the allowance in your php settings and you'll be fine.

But why isn't it working on the demo either?

My php.ini looks like this:

upload_max_filesize = 1024M;
post_max_size = 1024M;
max_input_time = 400;
max_execution_time = 400;
memory_limit = 100M;
register_globals = on;
file_uploads = on;
upload_max_filesize = 20M;
short_open_tag = on;

and I'm experiencing the same issues with the demo and also with my script.

I'm sure there's an incompatibility with my browser/os/flash player as I posted on the other thread.

because on the demo site the php.ini has upload_max_filesize set to 6Mb, if you try to upload multiple files that total more than 6Mb it will fail. ie 4 files at 2Mb each will result in the php and flash processing it as 2+2+2+2 = 8Mb, hence only the first 3 will work. In your settings you have upload_max_filesize set twice. The second one is overriding your first one of 1024Mb allowing a max combined upload total of 20Mb.

I've fixed the php file.

I'm trying to upload 6 images - 2 of them are 6MB and the others are 1MB each - the first 2 at 6mb are uploading while the next 3 just gave me an IO error 2038. after that - the one that was uploading also gave me an IO error ..
