Whenever I try to upload an user image I get the following error: ERRORS File, gear_anim1.gif, is bigger than the 20480 byte limit I've already set the CONF to 2 meg in config.php and played around with that, I still ALWAYS get the 20480 byte limit error!!! Anyone have a solution to this problem? URL's www.deafgolfleague.com

There is a 2 MB default limit for uploads in php.ini. I'd suggest you change that ... bye, Dirk

I don't think it has anything to do with php.ini. Note: 20480 bytes That's 20k. Indeed, I can upload any photo under 20k and within width/height restrictions and have it on www.deafgolfleague.com with no problems, but anything over 20k gets me the error. This is something to do with GeekLog 1.3.6 (which I'm using), and NOT php.ini

FYI I'm still struggling with this... It's definitely not php.ini.---L. Whitworth www.finiserv.com

Are you trying to upload a file > 20K or 2M? Try setting your php.ini setting: upload_max_filesize = 5M There also a setting in the geeklog upload.class file that limits uploads for geeklog to 1Meg. <geeklog_dir>/system/classes/upload.class.php var $_maxFileSize = 1048576;

Ha, finally someone I can help. I ran into the same problem and I'm, pretty sure its related to GL and not php.ini, but I could be wrong (I am frequently wrong). Nevertheless, the way I got around this was to open upload.class.php and around line 313 change this line.... if ($this->_currentFile['size'] > $this->_maxFileSize) { to a hardcoded maxFileSize like this..... if ($this->_currentFile['size'] > 3048576) { It works for me. Probably not a logical fix, but it works. Hope this helps.

I am having a similar problem with 1.5.3 I cannot upload an image 300 high even 250 give an error so what is the image criteria in size height x width - the image will be added in Admin Story creation. Wayne

FOUND THE GREMLIN!!!

Thanks for all the help, but these tips had to do with images in stories, not user photos.

After some searching, I found around line 430 in usersettings.php:

$upload->setMaxFileSize(20480); //20KB

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm thinking that this should have been set in config.php or otherwise retrieved the the value from there as it seems to do for width and height.

Changed THAT to 2 meg and everything works great now.

dangit. foiled again. well thats good to know at least, and it does seem like all of these variables should be easier to change or centrally located.

1.5.3?!?!

Did I Rip Van Winkle it somehow?

I think you mean 1.3.5!

Dunno. Upgrade to 1.3.6!

Actually, your suggestion was very helpful. Without it, I would not have redoubled my efforts! ;-)---L. Whitworth www.finiserv.com
