Which Server are you on? We have gotten many problems similar to this from server 5 users.

**the_Ace** · 11-13-2004, 11:48 PM

check the size of the file you're trying to upload. If its larger than 500kb then you wont be able to upload it. 500kb is the limit.

Tiger · 11-13-2004, 11:55 PM

That's why it's really only images that you can do.

Rage · 11-13-2004, 11:58 PM

Yes. Uploading any other type of file can cause this type of problem. This is fixed in IPB 2.0.

Tiger · 11-14-2004, 12:00 AM

Well I can't think of another file less then 500k, images, docs maybe a small wav sound.

Rage · 11-14-2004, 12:06 AM

Well, if that's the case, I would set the maximum image file warning to 500k, just to let the members know.

wontonmaster · 11-14-2004, 12:19 AM

but i setted the max to 2048kb is that too big?
it wud b nice if we cud upload larger ones tho, yeah im on server 5 too
luckily

Rage · 11-14-2004, 12:25 AM

Whoa, that's too big, set it to 500 Kilobytes. 2 MegaBytes might cause more problems.

wontonmaster · 11-14-2004, 12:25 AM

yea thanx guys

Rage · 11-14-2004, 12:28 AM

No Prob.

Tiger · 11-14-2004, 03:21 AM

I still don't understand why those on severs 1-3 can upload extra.

Rage · 11-14-2004, 10:00 AM

The old servers have already had most of the maintenence it can get. Now we have the new servers (4-6) which are new, and newer, un-maintained hardware means bugs.

i'm lost · 11-14-2004, 11:03 AM

Does that mean that eventually the upload size could go up?

Isolice · 11-14-2004, 01:32 PM

Probably not. It wasn't expected that Forumer would grow to be so huge - That's why earlier servers had larger limits. Now it would simply cost way too much to allow larger uploads.
