[PHP] set browser timeout
Is there an HTTP tag in the header that can be sent to tell the browser not to timeout? I found the HTTP spec page, but I'm not sure what to look for. Carl -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] set browser timeout
I'm uploading a file to a web site using forms. I'm trying to narrow down if the problem is the connection is timing out on file upload, or if I'm exceeding a web host imposed limit on file upload size. I've found the server i'm running on has: upload_max_filesize 2M post_max_size 8M Apache connection: 300 sec 1. I was assuming that post_max_size (since I'm posting the file, not uploading via ftp) takes precedence, so I should be able to upload up to 8M. 2. I'm uploading via a T1, so there is no reason why the apache connection should timeout 3. However, no matter what I do, it seems that the file upload times out after about 30 seconds for files below 2M. So there are 2 things I need to test: 1. Is it that the upload_max_filesize is really what is limiting the upload and my assumption is wrong? OR 2. Is it just a coincedence that anything over 2M takes over 30 sec to upload, and that the conenction times out after 30 seconds but the server _could_ handle more? Sorry for the long winded reply, but I wanted to provide some context for this question I posted as best I could. i was afraid if I put up the usual "file upload problems" in the subject line it may get ignored.

Re: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
I can initaite an upload from the browser. However, once the php acript attempts to process the uploaded file, it failswhen I test for is_uploaded_file. i also printed out the value of tmp_name and it was set to none.

Re: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
No I haven't. Right now, it's uploading via a simple form POST. I can initiate the upload , but when I have the php process the file, it fails on the first test for is_uploaded_file, and tmp_name is none. The thing is though, Iam only unable to upload gifs and jpegs, but yet i can upload other things like mp3s and text files and such.

Re: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
I'm going to just paste the entire page I've got right now. This is the html as output to the browser for the form submittal: Add an Image SQL: SELECT * FROM Development_ImageDateSQL: SELECT * FROM Development_Photographer Add an Image: Description: This page provides both the ability to upload the Full Size Image and a Thumbnail as well as add additional information about the Image. A Thumbnail is the small, preview image loaded on a page. The user clicks on this thumbnail to view the Full Size Image. The Date and Date Caption will appear over all images uploaded for a particular date. This is useful for uploading large numbers of photos, all pertaining to the same show. That way, no individual Image Captions are really necessary. Directions: 1. Select a Date from the Drop down list. If the date isn't in the list, type it in in the Date text box. Add a caption in the Caption text box. This general Caption will appear over all images submitted for that date. 2. Choose an image for the Full Size Image 3. Choose an image for the Thumbnail Image 4. Choose the Photographer from the list box. If the photographer is not listed, this person may be aded in the Add Photographer text box 5. Add an Image Caption. Please click the Upload File Now button ONLY ONCE, the file may take some time to upload. DO NOT CLOSE THE WEB BROWSER, this will stop the file upload. WARNING: There were errors on the page, but they are not serious.No Image Date Information exists in the database.Image Date information is added to the database each time an Image is added or updatedPlease go to the Image Manager Page To add or update Image informationThere is no photographer information in the database.Photographer information is added to the database each time an Image is added or updatedPlease go to the Image Manager Page To add or update Image information Date: Add Date/Caption Date: Date Caption: Full Size Image/ Thumbnail Image: Photographer: Add Photographer: Last Name, First Name Add Image Caption: On Wed, 3 Apr 2002, Bob wrote: > Would it help to have the tag look like this: > > enctype=\"multipart/form-data\"> > > The enctype is the part I'm wondering about..

I believe my web host has Apache/Php combo running on Linux. I don't believe I'm using any funky characters, and definately no spaces.

Re: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
Thank you for the code snippets. Unfortunately the problem is that I can'tget far enough to process the file. When the php script that supposed to process the file tests with is_uploaded_file, it fails. In addtion, the $HTTP_POST_FILE['userfile']['tmp_name']=none. So i can't process anything since, as far as php is concerned, it appears nothing is uploaded. Carl On Wed, 3 Apr 2002, Bob wrote: > Uhh, yeah, I forgot the getImage function part of the file..

I copied index.html to index.gif, and it uploaded fine as index.gif to the appropirate directory.

Re: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
And here's the really wacky part i just found out. I have a page in prod that uploads MP3s. Part off what it does is upload the file, examine its' type , and then discard the file if it's not the type expected. Assuming the web host was set to not allow uploads of jpg and gif, the MP3 page wouldve errored out , saying it couldn't upload the file; but the weird thing is that it _can_ upload jpgs and gifs, but needless to say discards them because they are the wrong type. I tried the same MP3 page in developmen, but it exhibits the same behavior as the image upload page in that it won't even upload a jpeg or gif. This leads me to bleieve I've got some sort of configuration issue here. Both eprod and dev are on the same box. Here's the paths to the 2 pages: Prod: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/updateAdmin/MP3_Add.php Dev: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/superSecretTesting/updateAdmin/MP3_Add.php Carl On Wed, 3 Apr 2002, Miguel Cruz wrote: > On Wed, 3 Apr 2002, Carl Schmidt wrote: > > Thank you for the code snippets.

There is one controlling the "devArea" realm, and it is at: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/superSecretTesting/ The second one I have is at: https://skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com/updateAdmin to control the "administration" realm There is some other info, related to this that may be of use: The real name name of the site is www.imperialthrust.com. Since this is just a rock band's web site, I didn't need my own certificate for ecommerce, but I did want to use the web hosts shared cert so I could secure a section of the site for administration. I was given the 3rd level domain alias: skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com that apparently bounces me through their authentication server. For a while the web site was not registered, so I've been connecting directly to skunkWerkz.hosting-advantage.com directly. But I've been running some tests and it looks as if when I go through https://www.imperialthrust.com/superSecretTesting/updateAdmin/MP3_Add.php, for some strange reason, jpegs and gifs are now able to be uploaded.

RE: [PHP] Cannot upload JPEG only
I think i've solved the madness. In the php docs, it states: Send this file: With the MAX_FILE_SIZE _before_ the filename to upload. Maybe I've missed a post somwhere that already suggested this, but i tried rearranging the tag order, assuming that since this is just a suggestion to the browser, that perhaps moving or removing it might help. WOuldn't ya know it, butwhen i have the order like so: The upload works just fine. I did read one post on php.net pertaing to this subject that stated: "I am using PHP 4.1.1 on Apache / Linux. The upload procedure _requires_ that you have a line that sets the maximum file size in your form: " So perhaps it may fail if I move these pages to a different server/php combo.
