Images will not upload properly using File Manager

Permalink
NOTHING UPLOADS! I get no error message and it says that "x" amount of files has uploaded successfully, yet NO thumbnails show up and no image file exists when you try and go to it. This doesn't happen all the time, only random times. Sometimes clearing the cache works, sometimes clearing the cache and signing in and out works, sometimes changing browsers works... this is ridiculous. These are all jpeg files under 100k in size, so the size settings/limitations are not the problem. I use a shared hosting package through Network Solutions if by chance that is the issue. What gets me is that it works sometimes and then just decides not to. Then, if I repeat the upload 5 or 6 times in a row, it might work or not. HELP!

HI,

I suggest looking at your server/hosting first, then maybe your install.

I have had several issues in the past and I jumped on C5 and PHP complaining, but it was my hosting company that were to blame.

All is calm now...

Just a thought

I wish... First off, Network Solutions sucks and I hope to migrate all of my sites off of their shared hosting package. But, in the meantime, they say that it has nothing to do with their end of things which I find suspect. This just gets so frustrating because they now want to charge me for their time to fix a problem that they probably and knowingly created with their server settings.

I use and always have used a linux shared server, over seven years now.

There are issues with servers and hosting companies.

There are also issues with browsers, platforms both W****** and Mac.

Can you run C5 locally, XAMP or MAMP?

I test and play locally and when all is well I upload and then complain?

I hear you and should probably develop locally as you suggest. I'll do less "complaining" as you suggest.
