    Posted: 31 October 2003 at 7:27am

Hello,

I am trying to get the file upload function to work. I am using the Dundas uploader. When posting I am able to browes to the file I want to upload and I get the please wait window. Then there is a popup that says: "There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed." The file is only 128 kB and it is of a type that I have configured to be accepted.

Thanks,

tj

Turn off friendly HTTP error messages in IE so you get what the error actually is.

Also check you have write permissions on teh directory you are trying to upload to.

Hello,

I am sorry to report that I do have friendly errors turned off. IE does not allow the window to be resized, however with Mozilla I can see the following error details:
    * Error Type:
      Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A004C)
      Path not found
      /forum/functions/functio ns_upload.asp, line 80

    * Browser Type:
      Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.2) Gecko/20021216

    * Page:
      POST 126277 bytes to /forum/upload_files.asp

    * POST Data:
      . . .

    * Time:

Thanks,

I am having the same problem and getting the same error.  I have set write access to every directory that I created for uploads.  Any ideas?

You need read/write access to the directory!

The path to the upload folder in the admin area is incorrect.

The path must be from the directory the forum is in to the upload directory.
