Enable Upload Progress Bar

[devarioj]

whenever your prowser asks you if you want to download a file you should restart your server. It does that every so ofter with Vshare if you dont have your server set to restart every night.

Here is what my upload page looks like during an upload. You can see it has been loading the vid for 12mins with no bar and no status:

The weird thing is that the upload bar was working but videos weren't converting....I had hostonnet.com fix my conversion but after the fix the upload bar never worked again. What do you think caused the problem?

[devarioj]

i just asked and I do have perl working on my site but the upload progress bar doesnt work still.

[devarioj]

ive been told to upload in ascii and to upload in binary just to see what was wrong and also so check the permissions on the folder ... still not working ... also make sure the perl script folder is the cgi-bin

I just did a fresh install on a clean server and am stuck with the internal error also, i dunno if its cos the cron hasnt been given a task output yet or if its a buggy file, but its to do with the newest versions files.

you need to have your server admin or hosting company make sure that perl scripts can run on your site.

SOLUTION TO UPLOAD PROBLEMS:

After 2 days of trial and error I found a solution to the progress bar not appearing.

Basicly follow the guide amin has set out at the beggining of this post.

Then also set these files to 777 chmod

include > settings > upload.php
include > settings > uu_conlib.php

If your cgi-bin is like this one - place the files here and cmod all to 755:

apache/sites/YOURSITE.com/cgi-bin/

Then open:

include > settings > uu_conlib.php

Find on line 25,26:

$path_to_upload_script = $config["baseurl"] . '/cgi-bin/uu_upload.pl';
$path_to_ini_status_script = $config["baseurl"] . '/cgi-bin/uu_ini_status.pl';

Change to:

$path_to_upload_script = '/cgi-bin/uu_upload.pl';
$path_to_ini_status_script = '/cgi-bin/uu_ini_status.pl';

You should be right after that:)
