I can't post an attachment

[fightonusc]

I've been trying to post the ZIP file that has the movie file of the most recent Fantasy RBI game as an attachment in the Week 9 thread, and for some reason, it's not attaching it. Can Gamtry/Nightwulf look into this?

[fightonusc]

Note: I also tried to attach the same file to the last post, and had the same result.

Can you email me the attachment, then I can try to post it, plus I'm probably the only one that wants to see that game.

[fightonusc]

PM me your e-mail again (I have it, but it's one of 500 messages I have)

I tried a different attachment and it isn't working

[Gantry]

Send to me via email, and I'll look at it sometime...

[nightwulf]

Try now. I was dicking with PHP last night because large files weren't uploading properly.

[ultimate7]

I'm fairly sure the fact that you couldn't post the attachment is a sign that the game needs to be replayed

[fightonusc]

Fixed. Whatever Nightwulf did with PHP last night must have done the trick.

People have typically had trouble with large-ish mp3 files as well, would said PHP deep dicking have fixed that?

That was exactly my problem. I couldn't post the mp3 in the "For bonny" thread. Forum settings allow a 9 meg upload, but PHP settings only allow a 2 meg upload. Apparently my dicking with php.ini (and HUP'ing httpd) did no good at all.

[Gantry]

Color me confused...  Fighton says that his problem is fixed, but the mp3 issue still lurks?  Yes I could test, but what time of man would that make me? 

[nightwulf]

Basically, yeah.

Some notes after looking:

When restarting httpd:

Mar 30 19:39:09 natas httpd: [Thu Mar 30 19:39:09 2006] [warn] module php4_module is already loaded, skipping

So I wonder if any php.ini changes you made didn't take. 

Also, the forums_access_log was at its file size limit wonder if that made a difference.  Moved the 2GB file (which hasn't been written to in about 6 months) to a new name, testing after this post..

I also don't see /etc/php.ini - did you move/delete it?  If not, which php.ini were you working with.  "locate php.ini" shows me nothing that would be accessed php...

That upload_max_filesize of 2M has to be it.  If you  hopefully know where php.ini went, we can restart the apache php module and get it going...

Not anything to worry about.

They did. I was refreshing the output of phpinfo() to make sure.

Your distribution of php expects it at /usr/local/lib/php.ini (probably the default, down with precompiled binaries!). There were a couple sample php.inis in /etc that I copied and made changes to, but the only thing I touched was the upload limit. Apparently there's another setting somewhere that I didn't feel like finding at 2am.

Yeah, that's the culprit. The only change I made (from one of the defaults in /etc) was upload_max_filesize from 2M to 10M. Copied and changed the file, rehashed httpd, verified that the change was made (via phpinfo() ), and apparently it borked uploads altogether.

Actually, kind of the opposite.  I compiled php myself and purposely put everything in /usr/local so it wouldn't conflict with the previous version.   The rpm version was years old...

So knowing what you did, my guess is that the php.ini sample in /etc was from the old, precompiled RH 7.3 php 4.1 and it isn't compatible with 4.3.x

There is one in /home/gantry/Source/php-4.3.11/php.ini-recommended that should work.  Just so I understand, there is currently no php.ini right now so the system is at all defaults?  Can we just make a one-line php.ini with the max_uploads being at 10M?

[Gantry]

Test with the new, one-line php.ini.  BOOYAH!
