Would you mind posting the code for uploading?

I’m using the FileReference class to upload images to an aspx page. Basically it goes like this:

Flash uploads the file to http://www.mydomain/upload.aspx

The aspx page calls a webservice that sends the image to another server (my image server). I’m of course not sending it directly to the image server because Flash can’t do that (it’s on another server)

It looks like Flash is successfully uploading the image (100%) and then I get the HTTP 500 error. It seems to work when I’m testing locally, but once the .swf goes live on the server, no go. The .swf and the .aspx page are in the same directory.

I’d also like to know more about the 500 error. w3.org says the following, but it’s still so vague:

10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

Please assist!!

My AS was perfect

It just shows to go ya!

However, your comments are all valid, and are definitely things I would’ve looked into should the problem have been on my side. The Security is a big one and all that stuff is being set properly, so good call there.

I’ve got a problem with an upload, using php and the as.
My file is downloading to 100% but on firefox mac I’ve got an 404 error and on firefox pc got a 406 error…
I’ve tried the secfilterengine and other in .htaccess but it doesn’t work and crash the server…
Somebody can help me???

Ben.

and the code for the php is:

and for the as:
var domain:String = “www.mydomain.com”;
var url:String = domain + “/test/admin/”;

//Allow this domain
System.security.allowDomain(domain);
import flash.net.FileReference;

upload_button.button_text.text = _root.title;

// The listener object listens for FileReference events.
var listener:Object = new Object();

loading._x = Stage.width - loading._width;

var screen:Object = new Object();
screen.onResize = function(){
loading._x = Stage.width - loading._width;
}
Stage.addListener(screen);

loading._visible = false;

listener.onSelect = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {
selectedFile.upload(url + “includes/uploadFile.php?upload_dir=” + _root.upload_dir);
loading._visible = true;
file_name.text = “”;
}

upload_button.loading._xscale = 0;

listener.onProgress = function(file:FileReference, bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number):Void {
upload_button.loading._xscale = bytesLoaded / bytesTotal * 100;
file_name.text = Math.round(upload_button.loading._xscale) + “% - “+bytesLoaded+” bytes of “+bytesTotal+” total”;
}

listener.onOpen = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {

}

/* ERRORS */
listener.onHTTPError = function(file:FileReference, httpError:Number):Void { file_name.text = “http error: ” + httpError + ” dir: ” + _root.upload_dir; }
listener.onIOError = function(file:FileReference):Void { file_name.text = “IO error”; }
listener.onSecurityError = function(file:FileReference, errorString:String):Void { file_name.text = ” security error: ” + errorString; }

function onLoadInit(){

}

loader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(this);
loader2 = new MovieClipLoader();

listener.onComplete = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {
loading._visible = false;
upload_button.loading._xscale = 0;
if(_root.hidden){
getURL(”javascript:setHidden(’”+_root.hidden+”‘, ‘”+ selectedFile.name+”‘, ‘” + _root.upload_dir + “‘);”);
}else{
getURL(”javascript:setImage(’”+_root.image_tag+”‘, ‘”+ selectedFile.name+”‘, ‘” + _root.upload_dir + “‘);”);
}
file_name.text = selectedFile.name;

_root.remove_visible = “true”;
}

if( _root.image_name == “” ){
_root.remove_visible = “false”;
file_name.text = “”;
} else {
_root.remove_visible = “true”;
file_name.text = _root.image_name;
}

remove.onEnterFrame = function(){
if( _root.remove_visible == “false” ){
this._visible = false;
//file_name.text = “”;
} else {
this._visible = true;
//file_name.text = _root.image_name;
}
}

remove.onRelease = function(){
file_name.text = “”;
if(_root.hidden){
getURL(”javascript:setHidden(’”+_root.hidden+”‘, ”, ”);”);
}else{
getURL(”javascript:setImage(’”+_root.image_tag+”‘, ”);”);
}
_root.remove_visible = “false”;
}

var imageFile:FileReference = new FileReference();
imageFile.addListener(listener);

upload_button.onPress = function(event:Object):Void {
//imageFile.browse([{description: “Images”, extension: “*.jpg;*.gif;*.png;*.jpeg”}, {description: “Documents”, extension: “*.ppt;*.zip;*.rar;*.ai;*.psd;*.doc;*.xls;*.flv;*.eps;*.pdf”}]);
imageFile.browse([{description: “Documents”, extension: “*.jpg;*.gif;*.png;*.jpeg;*.pdf;*.doc;*.xls;*.ppt;*.pps”}]);
}

Thanks in advance…

Ben.

but this is on a website…
It’s not in local…
Where do I put my I.P. for the server?

Thanks in advance,

Ben.

okok, I can see it’s close to work.
The loading goes to 100% and write the name of the image… but the copy doesn’t work…
Do you have an idea about it???

Thanks again!!!

Ben.

I’ve find my error:
POST instead of GET in the php…
Thank you very much for everything…

Ben.

Some ideas ?

SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off

If that doesn’t work, move the .htaccess file to the directory of the .swf file.

This might do the trick…

If it doesn’t, do you know what percentage the upload is getting to before it comes across the error?

Can you possibly give me a link so I can see exactly what is happening?

I have a secure server and I can upload just fine using Flash / PHP over https… but it won’t with FireFox and apparently it is related to a .htaccess setting (which is what led me to this thread). IE6 & IE7 can and do upload over a secure connection… so maybe I’m doing something different? Who knows.

The problem is that I can upload small files but larger ones such as a 1 meg file upload to 100 % but return with an error code 500 and fails to transfer over http.

Let me know how it goes…

Why ‘officialy support 100MB’ ? what could happen if I upload 101MB or 200MB ?

thanks for any hint or links

I am using FileReference.upload(”upload.php”). Uploading works well in localhost but when i put in on server no copy function seems to work. I even tried you option of System.security.allowDomain(”http://localhost”, “127.0.0.1″);

But fails. Can you guide me where i am wrong in implementing on server. U can have a look at:http://imtiyaz.byethost3.com/testing/upload.html

Waiting fr reply.

Best Regards,
Imtiyaz

i suspect i’m missing some kind of a configuration i need to perform when moving to a production setup rather then a development environment…

can anyone guide me through this?
does it have to do with security? on the client? on the server?
i’m still running on localhost…

cheers

I’m guessing it is the filesize. Check the MaximumFileSize setting of your webserver.
Let me know how it goes.

Cheers,
Stephen
