Flash (SWF) Multi-File Upload Broken?

Permalink
When using the SWF multi-file upload, after choosing the files, the status just says "Pending..." If I go ahead and click the "Start Uploads" button anyway, the progress bar briefly appears, and then a 401 error occurs for each file.

Can anyone confirm this behavior? I suspect it's JS related but don't have time to troubleshoot right now. It'd be good to know it's not unique to my system though, so if you can reproduce the problem, please let me know.

(This happens for me in 5.4.0.5 and 5.4.1.)

works fine for me on HostGator, i think its a server configuration issue, are you running IIS?

Can you post a phpinfo?

Thanks for the reply, Mike. It's a standard LAMP setup, and it's running locally and not publicly accessible. It seems the JS is not the problem after all, as I get a "Cancelled" message if I click the cancel button. The problem is elsewhere - perhaps in the SWF - but I'll have to do some more troubleshooting later.

What exactly is required server side to use the Flash upload?

Ok, so whoever would have thought that having Apache basic authentication enabled would cause the SWFUpload utility to fail. Certainly not I, but that's been the cause of my woes. See here...

My problem exactly. Multiple file uploads work fine once password protection is turned off. Thanks.
