Magento

Just tried to install a copy of 1.1.1 and the upload function works.
Even tried to import/export a database from 1.1.3 and that works in 1.1.1 so not a database issue. It is some code somewhere…

Might have to go back to 1.1.1 which seems really stupid…

ugh having the same problem on 1.1.3 fresh install...didn’t have any issues on 1.0

I did little workaround and find that uploading images works fine on fresh apache/php installation (which is more or less unsecured) but not on my hosting. After many tries to upload images i found that apache creates new http session after uploading image(s) with that crappy flash uploader. (So, if you manage log in again between pressing “upload images” and “save” button, everything works fine)

With help of my hosting sysadmin we finally found following solution working:

put these lines into your .htaccess file (or appropriate lines to php.ini):

php_flag suhosin.session.cryptua off
php_flag suhosin.cookie.cryptua off
php_flag suhosin.session.cryptdocroot off
php_flag suhosin.session.encrypt off
php_flag suhosin.cookie.cryptdocroot off
php_flag suhosin.cookie.encrypt off

Is this still happening to anyone else, I am using:
aspirationhosting.com
I have tried both Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1 and have also tried on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.16) Gecko/20080702 Firefox/2.0.0.16

I have changed the write permissions on media and var folders to 777

I have made sure that php_flag suhosin.session.cryptua off

I have also tried adding to the HTTPaccess file php_flag suhosin.cookie.cryptua off
php_flag suhosin.session.cryptdocroot off
php_flag suhosin.session.encrypt off
php_flag suhosin.cookie.cryptdocroot off
php_flag suhosin.cookie.encrypt off

I have uninstalled and reinstalled many versions of flashplayer

I can click on the browse button and magento tells me the images are uploaded but when I save I am logged out. I can;t find any images uploaded to the server and have exausted all other options. Anything else anyone can think of I will be more than happy to try.

@ Bolt: Our servers are suPHP/suEXEC enabled (added security) and as such you will need to change anything with permissions of 777 to 755, including the “media” and “var” folders.

I tried it with the permissions changed to 777 but have since changed them back when it didn’t work

I forgot to mention that I am using magento 1.1.3

aspiration have provided me the following fix:

One of the ways we found working with version 1.1.2 and below is the followings:-

Add the following lines in your php5.ini file (in your Magento root folder):-

“magic_quotes_gpc = off
short_open_tag = on
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so”

However, sometimes this fix does not work for version 1.1.3.

It didn;t work for me but hopefully it does for someone else.

Any other ideas will be much appreciated

I have been told that it is probably best for me to roll back to 1.1.2 until that isssue is resolved

Hello,

I have hostgator and could not upload pictures after fresh install. I tried adding php.ini and it did not help.

I change every folder in media and below from 777 to 755
and I can now upload images hope this helps others !

I have finally resolved my image upload issues

I tried to roll back to 1.1.2 and accidentally reinstalled 1.1.3 I added the below php.ini file

Add the following lines in your php5.ini file (in your Magento root folder):-

“magic_quotes_gpc = off
short_open_tag = on
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so”

However, sometimes this fix does not work for version 1.1.3.

This didn’t work until I change the file name to php.ini, now all seems to be good as gold

I’ve got a fresh install of 1.1.3.

And it shows this msg:
“Image type and information need to be specified for each store view. “

Both of the buttons don’t work on any of the browsers (ie7, ff3 or safari)

Is there a way to manually place the images on the product page for now before this is fixed? Pretty urgent stuff.

Ah in terms of manually adding images, i’ve decided to just add the images straight into the database until it’s fixed.
It works

I did not have a php5.ini file to add those 4 lines to, so I simply created a php.ini file and inserted those 4 lines there.  Problem solved.
