multiple upload crash fix?

  • i am using the multiple upload option by clicking the image icon and then multiply selecting images. sometime when i do this it will not complete the upload and it appears to hang on one image at 10% or something.

    is there a way to “bump it” to get it to restart or is it possible this is just a display glitch and it is working in the background?

    i never know what to do when this happens and i tried a Refresh of the browser and it appeared to get the uploads going again (it then showed “crunching”) but the browser of course refreshed and kicked me out so the prior uploads were not saved.

    TIA

  • That upload technique has always worked for me but then I tend to be uploading fairly small images. If one of the images you are uploading is large, it could max out your PHP memory and cause a fatal error in the upload process. Might be worth checking your server’s error logs for fatal errors.

    There are some php environment settings that can affect this:

    upload_max_filesize

    post_max_size

    memory_limit

    max_execution_time

    max_input_time

    Check with your host about your usage and limitations of a php.ini or a php5.ini file.

    To check these variables yourself, create a phpinfo.php file in your host root folder (may have to name it phpinfo.php5 on some setups)

    This file contains only:

    <? phpinfo(); ?>

    Then browse to the file and review.

    oh. where do i find a server error log?

    is this dependent upon the host or other?

    also big thanks to SWD. i will try to contact the host and ask.

    Again, this is a question for your host as it can vary widely.
