Enable Upload Progress Bar

[karlmay]

karlmay, try uploading in ASCII mode instead of binary and see if that doesn't help. I was having issues till I uploaded in ASCII and set it to 755, after that it worked fine.

Thanks grynmoors, I already tried this before :(

Probably its a host side issue i have, ill contact my host admin to see what they can do.

[grynmoors]

Make sure y'all have the right settings in the uu_default_config.pm Open it and double check...one small thing out of place and it will explode.

Try uploading in ASCII and chmod to 755. All these things worked for me, hopefully they will for you too.

didnt workded, now when i enable the progress bar it gives me this error message instead: ERROR: Failed to load default config file uu_default_config.pm

This is my uu_default_config file, everythings seems fine:

package uu_default_config;
use strict;
use Exporter;

@uu_default_config::ISA = qw( Exporter );
@uu_default_config::EXPORT = qw($config);

use vars qw($config);

$config = {

};

And on my config.php file, i have the same url as the uu_default_config file.

[grynmoors]

Don't now if this would affect anything but the "to" email isn't set. Admin?

I just had a problem with the progress bar for the first time. It sat there saying "initializing progress bar" for a long time and then it said

Error: 12002 Unknown

What would cause that?(however it did continue on to the uu_upload.pl)

My problem is as follows:

i have installed fresh 2.4 and activated progress bar.
it works on dedicated server under debian etch through vhost.
the perl-script seems to be called, as it is shown in status.

VShare monitors: Initializing Progress Bar ...
but the progress bar never appears
video is uploadin and convertig fine


this is the script of the file : uu_default_config.pm

package uu_default_config;
use strict;
use Exporter;

@uu_default_config::ISA = qw( Exporter );
@uu_default_config::EXPORT = qw($config);

i have tryed out multiple combinations... upload as ASCII/binary

uu_default_config.pm
uu_ini_status.pl
uu_lib.pm
uu_upload.pl

chmod: 655. 666. 755. 777

i worked through the postings more than once, but cant figure out the issue.

turtle, i don't know what is meant by using plesk control panel...are you not uploading the files with FTP and doing the chmod thing? If not, can you?

I was just stating that i'm not using cpanel in case that was the root of my problem. I uploaded all files in binary using ftp...and chmod'ed them all. The progress bar worked when I first installed, but now it doesn't. I just don't understand what could have changed. It is frustrating because now I get no status or bar. If admin could try uploading a vid and tell me what is going on I would really appreciate it!

[turtletracker]

Plesk has proved to be a real pain in the arse. It seems to be some problem with the url part example home/username/public_html/video cpanels url but plesks is dodgy. Dunno why it causes it though.

Plesk is not good as Cpanel, Godaddy provide it with VPS.

The path is some thing like

/var/www/vhosts/yourdomains.extn/httpdocs/

When using Plesk make sure Safe Mode is OFF and open_base_dir is not set, some times, they are set and create problems. Also cgi-bin is outside the httpdocs folder.

Safe mode is off but how do I check if open_base_dir is set?

now the video won't upload, and the browser ask me if i want to download uu_upload.pl .

Check if perl scripts work on your server. If you access the perl script, it should show a page like

http://video.bizhat.com/cgi-bin/uu_upload.pl

If not, you have problem with running perl script on the server.
