Subject: Image Upload problem
Date Posted: 29 June 2005 at 8:10pm
I am using 7.9 SQL with aspSmartUpload. When anyone on my site tries to upload images over approx. 200KB will not upload.  Before you ask, yes I have the setting for Maximum Image File Size in the admin section set to 500KB.   Example: I have a 246kb, 319kb, and 477kb .jpg files that will not upload but if I use Fireworks and shrink them to under 200kb with the same extension it will work. 
Here is the error I get when I use aspSmartUpload:
 

Request object error 'ASP 0104 : 80004005'

Operation not Allowed

/functions/functions_upload.asp, line 354

I thought maybe this was just a aspsmartupload problem so I tried a few others, including PureASP and got other errors but all where over 200kb.  Under 200kb, no problems.
 
This is the error from a PureASP try:
 

Request object error 'ASP 0104 : 80004005'

Operation not Allowed

/clsUpload.asp, line 85

Feel free to try it.. the site is http://www.soupbone.org - http://www.soupbone.org
 
I have looked all over the support forums and found no answer... I have even re-uploaded the WWF 7.9 files, no luck... any ideas?
 
Confused

Sounds like you may not have permission to write to the upload folder.

Get your web hosts to set the correct permissions on the folder.

Hi -borg-,
I am the web host and the 'uploads' folder has write permissions enabled. There are no disk quota limits either on that folder.  I can upload under stuff under 200k, another tidbit of info is that I am having the same problem with file uploads and also I have a secondary site with WWF and it too has the same problems.

The line 354 that the error is on is not to with ASPsmartUpload, have you modified the file?

Also try looking in any documentation to do with the upload components to see if that gives you an idea on the problem.

No... I do not know asp well enough to be a 'modder'. The only way it may have been modded was after I installed PureASP.  And I sent that error after I had installed PureASP.  So that could be it... I will re-upload the original files that PureASP overwrote and send the first error I was getting.   I have looked in some documentation for aspSmartUpload and aspSimpleUpload, well what I could find. PureASP only has a thread.  And I also thought that since all upload products were having the same issue to look here first. First, let me get the original error and post it and we will go from there.

Ok I removed all the PureASP files and copied the original asp files that PureASP replaced with ones from a brand new DL of 7.91, removed aspSmartUpload, unregistered the DLL's and "re-installed" aspsmartupload.  Took a 275 KB image and tried to upload it, no luck, took the same image and used fireworks tand 'shrunk' the file size to 137 kb and it worked fine.    Any ideas or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thx,
ToJaRo

Have you read the documentation of Aspsmartupload?

Open your metaname.XML which is located in c:\Windows\System32\Inetsrv find the line "AspMaxRequestEntityAllowed" and change it to "1073741824". You might need to start windows in Safe-mode to be able to change that file, otherwise it's being used by IIS.

YOU ARE BRILLIANT, SFD19!!!!!   I did not read that in the documentation. Embarrassed    I knew it had to be some little quirk with my server.   Thanks for the help!  By the way, it is actually the MetaBase.xml file and if you stop the IIS Admin service (and its dependants) you can save overwrite that file and then just spin the services back up.  No need for safe mode!    WOOHOO!
