[Solved] Error uploading avatar or attachments: "The upload was stopped by extension"

AndRos

Hi i'm new to Vanilla. I'm buildig up my forum but i've an issue that i can't solve. Do many search and trick but nothing. I'm unable to upload any file (included avatar). Actually i'm working on a fresh new installation of vanillaforums-Garden-Vanilla_2.0.18rc3-2249-g6dc6f69 hosted on Netsons.com Permission chmod 777 to "uploads, conf, cache" done

In my first attempt with cPanel and installatron i was fully able to upload avatars and attachments with "File Upload plugin" in 2.0.18.4

I don't kwnow what happened, even if i try an "installatron installation" of 2.0.18.4 the issue now is the same.

Before every installation i've deleted ALL files in public_html folder. I'm using Ubuntu, FileZilla and a broadband connection. Thanks

AndRos

Also: phpinfo returned upload=yes... chmod 777 in upload are in all files and subdirectory

i've created a test user (member) name: test pass: 1234 site: http://tmos.netsons.org/

No one have idea of what happened? Tried another installation of vanilla, this time the develop... oh yes very cool features.... i love this platform but i can't even think to start a community if i can't allow avatars! no one have idea? Tried several installation and several way to do it (included automatic installation with installatron). The first attemp, repeat, was fully successiful with upload. I decided to switch to a newer version becouse "don't follow" option didn't work... but.... now i'm in trouble again! :(

This message has to do with your server configuration. Doing some googling (which you really should also try) I found that you can try adding the following to your .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

Nothing to do. http://tmos.netsons.org/phpinfo.php I've tried also a fresh netsons hosting, fresh vanilla 2.0.18.4 installatron install.... nothing.

AndRos

Possibly is a "Netsons" issue not Vanilla. I've installed myBB and i'm unable to upload the same. Tanks for help now i'm wondering how to solve....

@AndRos You might wanna contact your ISP in case they are willing to fix the issue at their end. Worth asking :)

AndRos

99% a netsons issue. Opened a "ticket" for assistance. I've also tried another site (not mine) hosted at netsons.com and TA-TAN no way to upload avatar or attachments! I could say "solved"

Thanks for the update. Let us know how Netsons resolves your ticket and when you can upload again, I'll mark it as 'solved', ok :-)

AndRos

I don't kwow "how" but Netsons solved the problem. It was a php "error 8" on the server side. Now all is ok. :D
