Jesse66126 4 Report post Posted January 9, 2009 I keep getting weird errors,it says to "contact an administrator" one time it even said"file was too big." its only an 11MB game. I checked it out. I compressed it with winrar and even converted my screen shot to three different file types. It acts like its loading for 10 minutes and it takes me back to the home page. I go to see if it loaded,nothing changed. I told Mark about this problem a few monthes ago. Other people have been able to upload their games,but it just doesn't work when I try it. Here's the link to download my game,if anyone else wants to try to upload it. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2DNAJYJV It's called Ishtar Chronicles 4. any thoughts?

Nisage 31 Report post Posted January 9, 2009 There might be another problem other then trying to upload it here. I'm unable to play it, it opens the window then it immediately closes. Then again, I'm using the college computers to run it so that might be why it won't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I just realized that, I forgot that I'm using the college computers. (So I edited my last comment about that) But I have no idea why it won't upload onto this site, I could take some guesses as to why it might not let you. Internet connection speed (takes to long to upload), the folder size (But you already delt with the size), type of folder (you tried winrar, which others have used and had no problems with) umm that's all I can think of why it won't upload.

I have the same problem except it take about an hour to upload 30mb and then it gives me a connection has timed out. I have a great connection(not dialup) i dont see why it takes so long my average internet speed is 250-300kb/s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polraudio 122 Report post Posted January 13, 2009 I use box.net for all of my file uploading needs. You get 1gb space and it never gets deleted. You can create a topic for it and link it to your project file there for now. Until something gets figured out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elemental Crisis 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2009 Emily, heres some info on php settings you can change by putting them in your .htaccess file or if you have direct access to php.ini. max_execution_time - is how long the browser will attempt the upload before timing out. the number you put would be in seconds. memory_limit - how much memory php is allocated, I would see what the max your host allows and put that number in. post_max_size - is the file size limit. Make sure your hosts supports these settings and see what the default and max number is for each setting set by your host. Alternatively using the following may lead to better results max_input_time - is the maximum amount of time functions like POST, GET and file uploads are allowed in seconds. you can put max_input_time = -1 and it would remove a time limit altogether. Might want to double check these with the PHP Manual, It's pretty early here so I hope I didint make a mistake. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marked 197 Report post Posted January 13, 2009 I still cant get my project to upload.any help? If you create a file in the downloads manager for your game and upload a small text document or something, I'll upload and replace the file with your game. At least it will be uploaded to the downloads manager that way.

We are already using post_max_size in an .htaccess file because the original limit was 2mb and not host related, and not IPB related according to them. I'm going to try some of these out and hopefully we'll get some results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jambo6c 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2009 I've been trying to upload my current project, but it failed. I uploaded a small text file like Marked suggested - what now? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 28, 2009 I've got to look into this properly... Can you tell me how it failed? Did your browser just time out or something? Now you have to upload your project somewhere else and then send it to me(post here or by PM), then I'll upload it to our host so it can be downloaded from the downloads manager. If you don't know of any sites, try megaupload.com to upload it. Hopefully this fixes your uploading problem. Not this specific problem, but your post helped out a lot with a few other things.

Jambo6c 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2009 For me, when I clicked 'Add File' to finalise the upload (after adding information, version, etc.) I was redirected to the forum homepage (www.rmxpunlimited.net/forums/index.php?) And when I went back to the downloads section it's as if I've never been there - no record of my file or any post by me. (Obviously except the small text file one now lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kiriashi 117 Report post Posted March 8, 2009 Sorry to bump this, but I can't upload anything to the gallery or the downloads manager. When I click upload it just goes to the forum index. Can you solve this Marked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isaacsol 10 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 I'm not sure why this is doing this, it is not happening anywhere else on my server. Are the upload folders set to the right CHMOD ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiriashi 117 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 Actually I don't believe this is a problem anymore, Issac. I can upload to the gallery, but I haven't tried the downloads manager. I'll go try right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 I'm not sure why this is doing this, it is not happening anywhere else on my server. Are the upload folders set to the right CHMOD ? I've been doing this for a while... :( The permissions are correct. You can check if you like. The image in the first post does look like the permissions arn't set right, but I dont think they are getting that error anymore? I think the issue this topic is about is not being able to upload reasonably large files. I think 12MB+? When I tried testing it a few months back the page would time out or I would get an interrupted connection. I tried uploading a 30MB file about 3 times without any success. Actually I don't believe this is a problem anymore, Issac. I can upload to the gallery, but I haven't tried the downloads manager. I'll go try right now. I didn't know you couldn't upload to the gallery anymore. It just came right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
