[Flashcoders] Filereference.upload
Hi Is there any Limit to size of file with uploading file greater than 10 mb. Although with php/asp scripts I have uploaded more than 50 mb-100 mb files to my server, but with filereference.uploadmethod, I am just able to upload files less than 10 mb of size. Any hints?

[Flashcoders] FileReference.upload -> "Filedata"
Every example of the Flash 8 file Upload feature uses the variable name "Filedata" in the server side script when referring to the file. Is this *always* the name that Flash passes to the server, or can this be specified somewhere? I can only find examples, but not documentation stating this one way or another - can some one point me to some documentation (or Central documentation that is similar) ? [To illustrate, in HTML you would create an file input control and specify the name: . In your script you would then refer to FileToUpload when manipulating the file.] blue skies, bryan ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference.upload -> "Filedata"
Do you know if you can append extra parameters into the FileData? For example, I would like to allow users to describe their picture (name, title) but I don't have anyway to put that into the upload. I guess if worse came to worse I could add it to the URL but that is far from elegant. Additionally, it appears that you have to do the same thing with the session id if you would like to maintain state with the appserver.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference.upload -> "Filedata"
you can't append anything to the "file" data but you can append to the url, and then fetch it in yer upload script.. it will be sent as a GET.. Also note with sessions.. they arent properly created in firefox and safari.. so don't count on that.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference.upload -> "Filedata"
I was able to get it working with the url string like you mentioned... basically I store the session in the DB and generate a key that will expire after some time. Then the key is appended to the URL. When the url is posted the session is retrieved etc. etc. etc. One thing that is annoying though is that you can't get the correct content_type from the upload. Typically with a file upload you know what type of file it is images/jpeg for example. However flash just defaults to application/octecstream. That is really annoying for trying to parse out good and bad file types.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReference.upload -> "Filedata"
Ha Ha, Yeah I was putting the feelers out for sure. I have gotten most of my questions answered, though the session bug is still well... bugging me. Once I get all the code dialed in (and passing all the unit tests). I am going to post it to the blog. On 11/16/05, JesterXL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Ah dammit!

[Flashcoders] FileReference.upload onComplete event fails on OSX
hi I have a flash 8 movie that upload jpegs to a server side script. When hosted on an NT server, with a php script that recieves the upload, the FileReference onComplete event gets called correctly when the an image has completely uploaded using FileReference.upload. This when movie is viewed in Flash Player 8, in IE and Firefox on Windows XP and on OSX. When the same swf is uploaded to an Apache Tomcat/5.5.12 server, with a jsp script to recieve the upload, then the problems start. The upload works ok on both PC and OSX, except that the onComplete event of the FileReference object is never called on OSX. It is essential to trap the onComplete event for the site to continue with its functionality. (If the file takes long enough to upload (more than a few fractions of a second) the the onProgress event is called while its uploading on PC and OSX.) Has anyone come across this problem or similar?

[Flashcoders] FileReference.upload - onHTTPError: 302 on Mac OS X
Hey all, Does any know know why this might be happening? The 302 error seems to trigger when I move the uploaded file, so is it happening too soon? Thx! Aaron RE:http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/pipermail/flashcoders/2006-March/162075.html Hello everybody, How is it going??? Don t want to take too much of your time. I have a backend in Flash 8 which uploads a file using the FileReference class and a PHP serverscript. Everything is fine with a windows client. Strangely with a Mac OS X client (Firefox, safari, IE) the file is well uploaded but I get an onHTTPError event with an error of 302 (URI problem). I found a "workaround": knowing that the file is well uploaded my onHTTPError event executes the same code than the onComplete one but I would like to understand why I get this problem. Thanks Take care.

RE: [Flashcoders] FileReference.upload - onHTTPError: 302 on Mac OS X
Might be totally off topic, but we never know. I remember having problems with Uploads in firefox e.g. What it did was (per upload) send 2 requests to the server instead of 1. The first one is an empty one and all it does is try to predict weither the upload will fail or succeed. Maybe the script is trying to act on this first (empty) request and therefore trying to move an non-existing file? (thus, the 302?).
