Hello, aniss42!

1) click on the firebug button at the bottom right corner of the FireFox window
2) a window should pop up in the lower part of the screen
3) if not selected, click on the Console tab
4) click on the arrow next to 'Console' and select Show XMLHttpRequests if not selected already
5) refresh the page of the forum with the upload dialog (ctrl + f5)
6) try to upload a file - at least one line looking like:


GET http://localhost/v/index.php?p=/post/checkupload/1285952177212_UploadAttachment_1/0&randval=0.14999688610715622

should appear in the lower part of the screen.

Click on the + button at the left of this line, that should expand the XMLHttpRequest to the server, navigate to the Response tab in the newly expanded panel, select the response and post it here. Should look something like this:


{"Progress":{"key":"1285952177212_UploadAttachment_1","uploader":"UploadAttachment_1","apc":"yes","progress":0,"total":-1,"format_total":"0B","cache":{"current":0,"total":-1}},"FormSaved":true,"DeliveryType":"VIEW","Data":"","StatusMessage":"","RedirectUrl":""}

Please let us know what you find or if something fails along the way.

so what can i do ??

cdavid · October 2010

beats me. @Tim , any ideas?

Tim · October 2010

aniss, can you add or uncomment the following line in your config.php file:

$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['MasterView'] = 'deverror.master.php';

Tim · October 2010

Then try the above again

BradA1878 · October 2010

Hi @Tim,

I am having the same issue. I followed the direction above for using FireBug and this is the error I receive:

uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsIXMLHttpRequest.open]"  nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)"  location: "JS frame :: http://www.nihonken.org/forum/js/library/jquery.js?v=2.0.11 :: anonymous :: line 127"  data: no]

Line 0

I'm running Vanilla Version 2.0.11 and FileUpload Version 1.2.1. I didn't see any XMLHttpRequests requests being sent when I selected my file for upload (tho I do see Vanilla's auto save XMLHttpRequests requests).

Any thoughts on what be causing this issue?

Thanks!
~Brad

As mentioned above:
Works with Firefox =) But not with Chrome.

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

Ya mine is throwing the same exception as Brad's is

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

I think I found where it's messing up at, but I'm not sure starts at line 342 in the fileupload.js file. I base this upon using the breakpoints in firebug to see when i got the error.

if (ExecuteApcLookup) {
var Action = ['post','checkupload',ApcKey,this.ProgressBars[UploaderID].Progress];

var FinalURL = gdn.url(Action.join('/')+'?randval='+Math.random());

jQuery.ajax({
url:FinalURL,
type:'GET',
async:true,
//data:{'Previous':Progress},
success:jQuery.proxy(this.Progress, this)
});
}

Chmod your upload folder 777 and try again.

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

Ya it has alrdy been chmod to 777 =(

DavyB · October 2010

777 is a *MAJOR* security hazard, 705 for directories and 604 for files should be adequate

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

Yes i know, however if i 777 and it still doesnt work, then we've alrdy ruled out another solution.

Flam · October 2010

If I put anything other than 777, my forums don't work.

Tim · October 2010

permissions is 1 thing, but you could try changing ownership to the webserver user instead, and then settings 705 or 755

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

No luck =/ I dug further into where it was erroring out, and it errors out in the jquery.js library file when it goes to the else statement.

// Open the socket
// Passing null username, generates a login popup on Opera (#2865)
if ( s.username ) {
xhr.open(type, s.url, s.async, s.username, s.password);
} else {
xhr.open(type, s.url, s.async);
}

manovotny · October 2010

I am also experiencing the same thing as @BradA1878 and @CrazyCarlx2. I have also tried changing permissions as well with no luck. Would certainly be interested in helping find a solution!

lokust · October 2010

Also having this very same issue with latest Vanilla / Fileupload addon ... Always shows uploading and never actually uploads anything!
Folder/File permissions - checked.
Tested in Firefox only at this point.

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

Dunno if this might trigger some thought processing.. but whenever I hover over the 's.url' part of the code in firebug, the value is set to nothing. it just shows two double quotes. So basically the open() function is sending a url value of nothing.

lokust · October 2010

Eeek no resolution on this. Is there a previous version of FileUpload compatible with latest version of Vanilla?

CrazyCarlx2 · October 2010

try uncommenting your footer.. ZzZzZz

jahudka · October 2010

Had the same problem.

Found out that it is caused by the browser returning "<pre>{JSON response}</pre>" instead of "{JSON response}" as the iframe document body's innerHTML which is then deemed "Invalid JSON" by the JQuery JSON parser - and so even the initial checkupload test doesn't work. Solution was as simple as

Response = Response.replace(/^\<pre\>/gi, '').replace(/\<\/pre\>$/gi, '');

in the FileUpload javascript file in the UploadComplete function body just before it gets parsed by JQuery. That works at least in Firefox. In Opera it only got me one step further, where the upload itself should be finished - Opera error console says something like "Error: inline script compilation" and it appears that it cannot cope with the JSON data sent back from the server. This one will be harder to track because it does not show any trace.

Vanilla rocks! Peace to you all and thanks for this plug, Tim!
