no linked Uploads possible from frontend - 2005/07/21 14:55 Hi,

I just got a problem:
No linked Uploads possible from frontend. Error message: file was unspecified. But From the admin-console that works. With the same username.
Do I something wrong or is it a bug?

Re:no linked Uploads possible from frontend - 2005/07/21 15:42 No it is more of a conceptual problem! I'm not sure what to do with this.

The trouble is that the front side upload checks that the URL you give can be opened. If I don't do that, you may get uploads that are completely invalid - e.g. somebody hasn't bothered to fill in either the file to upload or the URL - and you just get an upload with a URL of http://.

However, the check can fail because of the parameters in your hosting - it is possible that opening URLs is blocked by your PHP settings.

At present, I assume that if there is not a URL that can be opened, there ought to be an uploaded file. The aim is to provide the most helpful diagnostics, but it obviously doesn't work in this case! Will have to think about that.
