aspsmartupload on Win 2003 R2

In the forum setup & configuration utility under the 'upload' section, go to the "file types" box and add your file extensions. Each file type must be separated by a semi-colon. Make sure the file types have the period before them.    (.doc;.zip;.pdf, etc.) I don't have a semi-colon trailing the last file type listed, so check that in case it makes a difference.
Remember to save the new configuration when you're done.

I was doing research on whether it was possible to extend the 2mb limit for file uploads and came across a number of support papers that refer to Windows Registry values. My system has no registry entries for AspSmartUpload, so I ran into a dead end. If your system does have the registry values, this key might be the one causing you trouble. If you don't have it in your registry either, I might consider trying to install it again. I had to do that once to get AspSmartUpload  to work properly after moving the forums to a new machine.

This is the Registry key you should check for:

Key :     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Advantys\aspSmartUpload
Value :  AllowedFilesList

Good Luck!

Ncriley,

Copy and paste what you have in the list in the admin section for allowable file types. Stone cutter is probably right that there may be a semicolon or dot somewhere that is screwing up the file type array.

I am using v9.06

Mine looks like this:
zip;rar;doc;pdf;txt;rtf;gif;jpg;png
