Hi,

I have used Coppermine for years. I have had a batch upload problem for the past two weeks or so. I have read countless threads on this forum and read many times your good Upload problems docs. I'm sorry to post but I have no solution.

I CAN upload very well via the normal 5 box interface but as I upload 500+ images every week, this is very slow. I have upgraded Coppermine to the latest 1.4.18, the albums folder and the uploaded folders are both 777. I'm using GD2 and the problem seems to coincide with a seerver upgrade to CentOs, PHP 5.2.5 and MySql 5

My issue is that after uploading the images via FTP, I select Batch Upload Files. I see the directory and select it. All thumbnails are visible and I select the album and 'Insert Selected Files'. 

I then go immediately go back to the Batch Add Files Select Directory Screen

I have looked in my PHP ini and upload_tmp_dir is set to /tmp. This is 777 by default according to my NOC. PHP safe mode is OFF.

I understand your instructions call for a (non admin) test account so I'll give one but its an admin/batch problem only.

Thanks Nibbler ... I'll read over that thread and try a PHP.ini

However, I'm unable to upload even one file via batch'

Thanks

Well ... I solved the problem with a local php.ini but all I entered into it was  register_globals = on

Then batch upload works.  Is this normal?  Thanks for your support Nibbler.

Coppermine doesn't need register_globals. I suspect the actual fix was a side effect of having a local php.ini.
