[openupload-devel] Email on windows server

[Kornél <tr...@fr...>]

Hi.

First I'd like to thank you for this great software, it's in a test phase by us, but hopefully we can start using it soon.
Our server is runing on windows and for a clean installation I couldn't start openupload up. After an admin password change or a test file upload I got an empty page and the software did nothing in the background. Finally I found that the root of the problem is the checkdnsrr function, which is not implemented in the windows version of PHP. But at the forum of php.net (http://hu.php.net/checkdnsrr) I've found a small script that solves this problem and now it works fine in general.inc.php.

Here is the link to the message: http://hu.php.net/manual/en/function.checkdnsrr.php#75158
I still get a warning on the mail function but it works.

Sry for my english.

Yeah I think so, I just used the standard instructions and they worked
perfectly, with the 3_mode_restricted.sql file. Looking at this file I see:

INSERT INTO `acl` (`id`, `module`, `action`, `group_name`, `access`) VALUES(5,
'auth', 'register', '*', 'allow');
INSERT INTO `acl` (`id`, `module`, `action`, `group_name`, `access`) VALUES(6,
'auth', '*', 'unregistered', 'deny');
INSERT INTO `acl` (`id`, `module`, `action`, `group_name`, `access`) VALUES(7,
'auth', '*', '*', 'allow');

so the entry to do this is there, but strangely enough it doesn't actually do it.

I'm using SL5.2 (Scientific Linux 5.2) with mysql-5.0.45-7.el5.i386

Yes, done that and all looks perfect.

Thank you.

That's odd. There must be something with default acl then.
You need to enable the register action for the unregistered users.

Go to the Rights Admin page.
Select the unregistered group
grant the "register" action for module "auth" to them and apply.

That should enable user registration.

[openupload-devel] Register user link on openupload login page

[Michael M. <mi...@np...>]

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed your latest version, v0.4beta1 and all worked
fine.

However, in your screen snapshots on SF I see a "Register" link to public
people to create an account, however with mine I don't see it.

I set it up with the "restricted" sql file.

How can I get the Register link showing up and allowing people to register
themselves?

Thanks.

Michael.

Re: [openupload-devel] openupload-devel@lists.sourceforge.net

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

Ok probably you are missing the GD php extension.
or you have error reporting turned on the display errors in the php.ini 
file.

First try loading the image pointing your browser to:
http://www.guisupport.net/plugins/captcha.php

you should get either an error or an empty page.

If you are getting an empty page or an error probably it means you are 
missing the GD extension for PHP:
http://it2.php.net/manual/en/book.image.php

 From what I can see (from other e-mail) I guess you are missing GD 
extension.

Alessandro

Re: [openupload-devel] Use of undefined constant SI_IMAGE_JPG

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

Dear cg road,
as I satated in my previous e-mail php notices can be ignored (as far as 
everything is working).
In this case it's only a warning that the SI_IMAGE_JPG was not defined.

If you don't want to receive this kind of messages you should remove the 
notices from your php reporting_error configuration like:

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

in php.ini

Also in case you get errors a brief description of the installation 
would help me to assist you like:

1. Operating system (Linux, Windows, etc)
2. Distribution / Version (i.e. Ubuntu 8.10, Fedora 10, Windows Xp Pro)
3. Apache and PHP version

As it's a notice I suppose it's only a wondering on the meaning of the 
message, if the captcha plugin isn't working then probably you are 
missing the php-gd extension.


Regards,
Alessandro

Re: [openupload-devel] require proper instruction

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

Dear cg road,

cg road ha scritto:
> Dear Sir,
>  
> As per your installation instruction in openupload install file
>     * Copy all files to somewhere which is accessible from the web (i.e. 
> /var/www/html/openupload)

Ok this is complex to explain. Basically:

Install instructions also state this:
     * BIG FAT NOTE: This procedure is aimed to let you test the program 
functionality.
       Once this program is right for you, read the MULTISITE 
INSTALLATION to avoid security issues.
       You should make sure the files other than "www" are not directly 
accessible via WEB
       More specifically this are the most important:
         "data" directory where files are stored
         "txtdb" if a flat txt database is used


So, the instructions at the top are for testing the application fast 
(QUICK START :-) ). Production servers should only publish the www 
directory contents.

- Install the whole app in /usr/local/share/openupload and publish only 
the www folder.

Either copying the www/* content to the DocumenRoot (i.e. /var/www/html) 
of your web server (or subfolder) [1]

Or (better) by creating a configuration which points to the www folder [2]

so only the files under the www folder can be accessed by the user.

Then verify the config.inc.php points to the correct paths like:

[1] If you copy the files configuration should look something like this:

// this points to the installation directory
$CONFIG['INSTALL_ROOT'] = '/usr/local/share/openupload';
// this points to where the config.inc.php and index.php files are
$CONFIG['WEB_ROOT'] = '/var/www/html';

[2] If you create a web server configuration
file: '/etc/httpd/conf.d/openupload.conf'

Alias /upload /usr/local/share/openupload/www
<Directory /usr/local/share/openupload/www>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    DirectoryIndex index.php
    AllowOverride Options
</Directory>

then the config.inc.php should be something like

// this points to the installation directory
$CONFIG['INSTALL_ROOT'] = '/usr/local/share/openupload';
// this points to where the config.inc.php and index.php files are
$CONFIG['WEB_ROOT'] = '/usr/local/share/openupload/www';
$CONFIG['WWW_SERVER'] = 'http://your.web.server.com';
$CONFIG['WWW_ROOT'] = '/upload';

And point your browser to:

http://your.web.server.com/upload

I know documentation is lacking, I'll be updating it once the 
application is stable enough.

This is more a programming issue (php notices, can usually be ignored), 
but of course they are bad if the error_reporting is to be viewd in the 
browser. It's a small "bug" I'll be removing.

Though this is not an issue which prevents the application from running 
properly.

I suppose that basically the application is working, you only wanted 
clarification on how to install it properly, right?

Hoping I clarified (and did not add more confusion).

Regards,
Alessandro

Re: [openupload-devel] delete files

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

yeah, known bug. (it's fixed in svn version)

I'll fix a few more things and release a v0.3b shortly.

Please be patient but the project is in it's infancy, so more people 
tests it more stable it gets :)

Don't hesitate to send more bug reports.

This are open bugs:

[openupload-devel] delete files

[Andy H. <and...@eu...>]

Alessandro,

I upgraded to .3a and this allowed me to delete an uploaded file from the link in the email, but I have a file that I no longer have the email for so I tried to delete it from the Administration->Files page. 

It seems to reload, but the file is still there and there are no error messages in the interface.  There are no errors in syslog either.

Thanks! This fixed it.  (I knew it must be a path problem in

Re: [openupload-devel] image files

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

hmm, maybe the problem is not even this.

If the case is that you have unpacked the whole app in your DocumentRoot
let's say /var/www/openupload
where /var/www is your Apache DocumentRoot

you result poiting the browser to something like
http://localhost/openupload/

Then the settings of the $CONFIG['WWW_ROOT'] must be:
$CONFIG['WWW_ROOT']='/openupload/www';

'cause in a production environment only the "www" directory should go 
under the DocumentRoot (that was the idea at least).

Hope this helps.
If this is not the case please send me the HTML that you get from your 
server for the main page, and the first part of the config.inc.php file 
if possible (where paths are set), that would help me diagnose the problem.

Alessandro

Re: [openupload-devel] image files

[Alessandro B. <ts...@br...>]

Hi Andy,
I think there is some "/" at the end of
$CONFIG['WWW_ROOT']

if $CONFIG['WWW_ROOT']='/';
change it to
$CONFIG['WWW_ROOT']='';


All in www/config.inc.php

Hope this helps.
Alessandro

Hello,

This is a great idea and fills a need for many. 

I just installed open upload and so far I can't get any images to show 
up on the page.  The site is on a server with other sites that display 
images and the files are all 755 or 744 owned by www-data.www-data.  Any 
ideas?
