For some reason I can't get any sort of folder selection to come up for the batch upload. 

When I try URL/URI I get:

Warning: fopen(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in yadayada/pics/upload.php on line 1628

Warning: fopen(http://www.blahblah.net/PICT4810.JPG): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in yadayada/pics/upload.php on line 1628

(I have changed a couple paths, just for my privacy.  )

Anyways, I was wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this. I need one or the other as doing it through the interface otherwise is too clumsy.

My host is Dreamhost if it makes a difference.

You should talk to your host about that error message.

Looks like they have it disabled, and likely won't enable it.

Is there a workaround for it? Could this be affecting my batch upload that's also not working?

Okay, they got back to me, said I have to use Curl. How can I use it? I've really got no idea.  \

I guess you'd have to wrap the fopen inside curl_init, something like this:

Code: [Select]

$ch = curl_init("http://www.example.com/");
$fp = fopen("example_homepage.txt", "w");

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);

curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
fclose($fp);
That code is right from the php website.  I've never used curl so I don't know exactly what changes would be needed.  Perhaps one of the other devs has experience with curl.  If not, you may have to find another script that doesn't use fopen, or you'll have to find another host more Coppermine friendly.

Alrightty, think I'll wait for someone to confirm what I should do.

In the meantime, I was uploading a 10mb video clip to my site and it timed out right away (didn't even transfer after the first 0.5mb). I don't think it's my connection as a 3mb file uploaded just fine.

Maybe some sort of setting?

Here's a version specially modified to use curl, see if it works.

[zoombago]

Yes! There we go.

Hi..I've just downloaded the file and I've uploaded it on my server but when I try to upload a picture I receive this message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: curl_init() in /cpg133/upload.php on line 1631

What does it mean???

[Nibbler]

It means the server doesn't support curl.

[markmaior]

Ok...thanks for your quick answer. There is another way to fix this error??

[Nibbler]

Get a better webhost.

[markmaior]

yeah...it's just what I'm thinking about eheh...
