Hi,

 

I've just checked, the files are there, in the import folder, all neatly
unzipped, so it's not a permissions problem with the file system.

 

I don't know enough about the way the code works the delve much deeper, but
my next thoughts are that if it's not the file system properties, it could
be something to do with the SQL, or the way it transfers the date to the
USER_FILES.

 

I've done a manual transfer to the USER_FILES (creating a stub in the
editor, then uploading the media and template.xwd into the directory
created, and copying the latter to 'data' after deleting the 'data' file
that was there) and that works just fine. I'm not sure if I need to
overwrite the 'data' file or not, but it seems to work.

 

Kindest Regards,
Thomas

Oh right ok, I'll give it a try - that server is relatively up to date (not
latest though) but I wasn't aware of any code changes to the upload path
(other than the moov stuff being removed).

 

Let me update and try again.

No I am not, and I am using the latest 2.1

Hmm..

 

Tom, are you using windows 8.1?

 

I just tried in Windows 7 with Firefox 24 and it worked fine for me. Can
anyone else with Windows 8 or 8.1 confirm whether it works for them?

Hmmm, they look decidedly strange to me:

192.168.50.11 - - [25/Oct/2013:11:39:01 +0200] "POST
/~tom/xotdev/modules/xerte/engine/upload.php?path=USER-FILES/1-tom-Nottingha
m/media/&null HTTP/1.1" 200 - "-" "Shockwave Flash"
192.168.50.11 - - [25/Oct/2013:11:39:05 +0200] "POST
/~tom/xotdev/modules/xerte/engine/file_exists.php HTTP/1.1" 200 39 "-"
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0"

i.e. I would have expected some indication of firefox on the first line as
well.

Hi Tom,

 

It is most likely the flash cookie bug. Can you see what the useragent
string presents as for the new Firefox? I've seen issues on the
mediaelements Github site that IE11 has a different useragent string or
something.

Hi Tom

I just tested with Firefox 16.0.2 and uploading images and video works fine
for me with 2.2 code grabbed this morning.

Issue 1:

The space needed by the buttons in the Dutch translation is too large:



This only happens in (some) installations of firefox, i.e. I have problems
on my PC, but Inge does not on hers (Both Win7Pro 64bit).
Does anyone mind if I set the margins of .file_mgt_area_middle to 10px
i.s.o. 15px?



Issue 2, upload of media, so far only encountered in firefox:

I can't upload media. Tested with video and images.



Tom
