[Resolved] - flash player 10 caused the problem - Upload and browse images in Product admin broken, Can’t load admin from any browser other FireFox, 1

GFX Complex Total Posts: 47 Joined: 2007-11-19 St.Louis Ignore user	The problem was due to the flash player 10 RC1. This is unsettling since the flash player 10 is due to release any month now and when it does it will break all the magneto stores. If I click on the browse files for upload images button in the product admin nothing happens, if I try to log in to the admin from any other browser I get redirected to the admin log in page with no error. [rant] I feel like I just downgraded to 1.1.3 from 1.1.2! If I don’t see any solution to this in the next week I pulling down magneto and going back to zen cart. version 0.1.3 is more like it. [/rant] But really guys what in the hell happened with 1.1.3? Signature Your worst enemy hides where you would last think to look. - Mr. Pride

(assume 1.1.2 to 1.1.3)? How did you do the upgrade - ftp or connect? Have you cleared the cache - if not via admin then manually via ftp? Are you seeing error messages? etc. V1.1.3 is all OK for our sites.

Let us know how you get on.

Error Console on Firefox says: Error: Error #2176 Source File: http://www.touchrage.com/js/lib/flex.js Line: 903 I am running a nightly alpha version of Firefox, so I assumed that the problem was that. Maybe not?

mister Total Posts: 42 Joined: 2008-08-31 Ignore user	Has anyone found any more information about this problem? When I click on the Browse Files button in Firefox nothing happens. If I click on the Browse Files button in IE I am asked to select a file, but when I click on Upload Files, nothing happens. This is on a clean/fresh install of Magento. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

As a result, an administrator will not be able to upload product images.” See http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/magento-installation-guide for more details, the Known Issues section specifically. I was just testing Magento on XAMPP but I will just have to upload it to my web host.

unlimitd1 Total Posts: 1 Joined: 2008-10-18 Ignore user	fellow magentites, this “error 2176” is indeed a flash 10 player issue. after encountering the problem myself and researching over the net, i found out that flash player 10 does this on purpose to prevent a security exploit. i guess the magento community will have to update the code later on. a workaround is to first uninstall the flash player 10, and then download flash player 9 from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html#fp9 you want to download this link below: “Download the Adobe Flash Player 9 Update for Windows and Macintosh (ZIP, 42 MB) “ after unzipping, in the “release” folder, i installed the active x msi and and it worked fine. enjoy!
