Failed To Find Flength File

[hostonnet]

This can be a server permission related issue. php, perl scripts running as different user or some thing. Ask your server admin which system user runs perl and php scripts. By deault it is run by user nobody. There are option to run it as the user that owned the site (suexec). If php and perl are run by different users, there will be problem with finding length of the uploded file.

Reply from host : I have disabled suexec on your machine and there is no change in the script behavior.

Still no dice :(

Have been trying everything, still can't get it to work.

It look like a DirectAdmin ubr upload problem. May be they run perl different way. In plesk, there is two ways, one mod_perl and other cgi. If set mod_perl it won't work.

Thx once again. Due to your help my hosts have managed to fix the problem. But they had to disable Nginx to do that, and now the load on my machine is rising!

I was finally able to track down that the Nginx daemon we have sitting in front of Apache was breaking this. I have temporarily disabled Nginx to show you that its working now.

The below thread covers somebody else having the same problem.
upload progress bar

However, with nginx disabled the load on your machine is beginning to climb.

Please let us know if you would like us to leave it as it is now or re-enable Nginx.

Any ideas on a workaround?

if you could move static files to a different domian, you can serve it with nginx. If not, you may need to use nginx progress bar module, there is one for lighttpd, not sure about nginx.

Thx hostnet. I got my host to install lighttpd - but he has another query.

Lighttpd has been configured on your machine for the domain but I'm not finding anything online about how to correctly configure your script to load its flv and thumbs from it. The built in functionality in the script for this wants to ftp copies of the files to a separate machine. Do you know in vshare how to easily change the flv and thumbs URL?

Thx

You need to add new server in vshare admin, once you done that, new videos get uploaded to the server you added. Existing videos can be moved to remote server, you need to update video_server_id filed in videos table with id of the server you are moving the videos to.
