Forums

Hello,

I can't get file uploads to work in my form. I've followed a lot of the posts already on the forum but it still isn't working for me. Not only does the file not upload, the email doesn't even say the file name. When I remove the enctype from the general tab, it says the filename but the file doesn't upload. I have attached the cfbak file if anyone would be so kind to look. Thanks in advance!

Hi Strommy,

The wild-card * is no longer supported as a File Uploads extension - it just opens up too many possibilities for hacking. Try a list of specific suffixes instead like rar|zip . . . You probably don't want to include php or js🙂

PS check the case as well you have 'Script' in one place and 'script' in another; I don't remember if this makes any difference.<br><br>Post edited by: GreyHead, at: 2008/02/09 20:29

Still nothing. Any special CHMOD changes I need to make that I'm not aware of? I have the com_chronocontact uploads folder set to 777.

Hi Strommy,

OK, I'll look again at your form in the morning. The rest of the code looked OK to me.

Hi Strommy,

Can you see the file uploaded under the uploads folder ?

No, unfortunately not. I have some additional information to provide...

Today when I looked at the form, "Field names & allowed Extensions for each:" had switched itseld from "script:zip|rar" to "Array"...

Additionally, I've been getting e-mails like this:

No action is required on your part. Delivery attempts will continue for

and when that happens, the message will be returned to you.

Hi Strommy,

The Array problem is a known bug and the fix is here

The email error is correct. 'example.com' is a dummy domain used for testing and emails sent to is are undeliverable. The question is where is it showing up in your form? It needs to be replaced with a valid email address.

That fixed it! Getting uploads and e-mails correctly now. Thanks for the great component and customer support! Keep it up!
