Select an Image File! error

[jjo]

Why would my gallery (http://www.joelfan.com/gallery) not permit any uploads of MP3 files?  I have the MP3 extension set in the control panel as an acceptable upload extension, and I added the MP3 mime type line added in the upload_definitions.php file, and I have an MP3 template html file created.

But when you try to upload an MP3 file, it uploads the file, but then the upload form is shown again with the "Select an Image File!" error on top.  And yes, the MP3 file is below the max file size.

Any thoughts?

What about other extensions?
What 4images version?
PHP version?

-Other extensions seem to work fine.
-4Images 1.71
-PHP 4.3.11 with Zend Optimizer

Also, recently, my gallery is behaving very slowly.  Is there something I can flush or reset to quicken the gallery?

Can you create a test category were we could upload?

Make sure you dont have remote images, 4images does not like these.

Test category created.  Anyone can upload there.

And, how do I know if I have "remote images"?

[V@no]

well, you could try search in ACP for images with http:// in their filenames

I can tell you right now http://joelfan.orlowski.com/gallery/details.php?image_id=40
is a remote file.

But when you try to upload an MP3 file, it uploads the file, but then the upload form is shown again with the "Select an Image File!" error on top.

Not only! it also shows this:

fword.mp3: Invalid file type (mp3, application/octet-stream)

Is it possible to disable remote image/file hosting?

[V@no]

just remove the field from member_upload.html template.

I already have this line in my upload_definitions.php file:

$mime_type_match['mp3'] = array("audio/mpeg", "audio/x-mpeg", "audio/mp3", "audio/mpg");

Is that syntax wrong?

[V@no]

No, you don't have the correct mime, I mean the syntax is correct, but you are missing the mime type needed, please read more carefuly the FAQ topic I've showed above

I removed (remarked-out) that field, and did an MP3 upload test, and it uploaded fine.

I changed nothing else.

Odd?

indeed....
I had openend your "old" page with URL field in it, and it didnt let me upload, but after page referesh and tryed again - it worked...never seen this before

P.S. remote thumbnails also might slow down your gallery.

Looks like its very picky when it comes to MP3 files.

A test 3.84 MB MP3 file at 44kh 16-bit Stereo won't upload, but that same file reduced to 860k 22kh mono will.

My upload file size limit is capped at 10mb.

Here are those files zipped...
