Need Help With Ipb

Jimmeh

Hey,

Got IPB set over for a new mod called Zombie Panic, forums are avalible <a href='http://buyitem.net/~tweek/jimmeh/ipb/' target='_blank'>here</a>.

However, i've set it so users can upload stuff, but for some reason, everytime you try you get this error:

<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->The requested file upload failed. This is either because it was not in the correct format, or the file size was larger than that allowed. Please check the file you wish to upload and try again.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

The folder it's set to upload to is CHMOD 777, and the file size max is 48mb so it's not that.

Any ideas?

Well, this might sound a bit stupid, but make sure that file_upload is TRUE (in php.ini). Just in case. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Otherwise, you might wanna check out www.php.net for more info.

edit: clarification

Make sure that the extension of the file they're trying to upload is set as an uploadable filetype. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

make sure the upload path is absolutely correct too.

IIRC, there's some directory path that ipb only stores in conf_global.php that isn't visible via the administration panel, if you get it wrong during installation or just simply copy all the files to a different directory, then it'll be wrong and you need to edit it manually.
