Bug #16353 Updated: can upload other files but not zip or visio files

ID: 16353 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: cindy_walker@dot.ca.gov -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: HTTP related Operating System: Irix 6.5 -PHP Version: 4.0.6 +PHP Version: 4.2.0 New Comment: Let me guess: the visio file you're uploading is big? And your php.ini settings for upload_max_filesize and post_max_size are smaller and that's why the file is never gonna get there.. Try this very simple example: <form method="post" name="form" action="uploadtest.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="attachment"> <input type="submit"> </form> <?php print_r($_FILES); ?> And try submitting one of those problematic files and paste the output here. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-18 12:57:56] cindy_walker@dot.ca.gov I get the identical response after I renamed the file to have the extension .jpg. Using IE 6.0, Netscape 6.2 or Opera 6.2 doesn't work either for visio files. It looks like visio is the only problem file type. This isn't a big problem for us. I was asked to add a file upload feature to an application, but so far no one has uploaded any files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-18 12:32:26] sander@php.net I really think this is a browser issue. What happens if you rename a viso file to .jpg or .gif, or any other extension that does work? If you can upload that file, then it's a browser problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-18 12:10:32] cindy_walker@dot.ca.gov Finally we have PHP 4.20 installed. It does solve the problem for uploading zip files with Netscape 4.7. It still doesn't allow the successful upload of visio files. It puts the file on the server with the correct name, but its a zero KB file. These PHP commands: echo "HTTP_POST_FILES tmpname: ".$HTTP_POST_FILES['attachment'] ['tmp_name']."<br>\n"; echo "attachment_name: ".$attachment_name."<br>\n"; echo "attachment: ".$attachment."<br>\n"; echo "attachment_size: ".$attachment_size."<br>\n"; echo "attachment_type: ".$attachment_type."<br>\n"; result in this output: HTTP_POST_FILES tmpname: attachment_name: test.vsd attachment: attachment_size: 0 attachment_type: PHP 4.2 can get the name but little else from a visio file. I'll see if I can get one of the server admins to look at the http traffic that happens during the upload of visio files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-18 04:19:55] hholzgra@php.net any news here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-13 19:14:39] shiflett@php.net If this problem persists, it would be very helpful if you could capture (or have someone else capture) the underlying HTTP traffic this transaction produces. Feel free to email me personally if you would like help in this regard. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
