Thumbnails not being created on large images
« on: March 20, 2005, 01:21:13 PM »
Hiya,
On images larger than about 1mb the thumbnails aren't being created, but for images under 1mb the thumbnails create fine. It is the same whether I do it manually in the acp or if I set it to automatically create the thumbnails when the image is uploaded. When trying to create the thumbnail in the auto-thumbnailer in the acp it just says 'Create thumbnail for: image name', and nothing happens, when auto-create thumbnail is on and someone tries to upload a large image they get a page cannot be found error and the image isn't uploaded. But images under 1mb the image and thumbnail is created fine. I'm using GD. When I manually create a thumbnail with an outside program for images over 1mb and upload it via ftp, the thumbnail shows up fine so I'm assuming its something to do with GD.

safe_mode is off
max_execution_time is 30
upload_max_filesize is 8M

Any ideas please?

what about memory_limit?
Could this setting cause the problem?  :?

memory_limit is 8M aswell so I doubt that is causing the problem

this sounds like the web server is crashing.
try get a hold of server log files, that's the only way to know what is really happening.
