I can no longer upload photos via Gallery Remote. I am getting this error when I try:upload error: upload failed: ":
I have seen this error in the forums, but there seems to be no good solution other than to ask the webhost to restart the server. If anyone else here uses PowWeb as their server, could you try uploading photos via Gallery Remote to see if this is a problem with my configuration or with PowWeb. The Gallery2 codex database says this error is a problem with improperly configured locale. I'm not sure what that entails and the codex does not provide an in depth explanation or solution.

PHP4.4.2
Gallery2
Apache1.3

I am still struggling with this issue. Neither gallery remote or the web-based upload form works. I've upgraded my gallery to 2.1.2, fooled around with php.ini, all with no luck. The solutions I've tried have been changing php max size and post values, but all my photos I've been trying to upload are less than 1mB, so that's really not the issue. I've also tried this solution:

http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:FAQ#Where_I_should_see_dates_I_see_.22Wrong_charset.2C_cannot_convert.22_or_.22Illegal_character_encoding.22_or_.22Illegal_recode_request.22.._what_is_wrong.3F

What could this issue be related to?

Hi,
I have the same problem, I posted the details of my installation under this thread:

http://gallery.menalto.com/node/56773

This problem seems to be very common under different platforms.
I hope somebody will work on it, I have some 3 GB of photos to upload :)

Best,
Richard

Is this also an common issue on Windows systems?

No, it's not a Windows only error. I get the same problem when using Gallery Remote 1.5.1-b30 on Mac OS 10.4.9. The Gallery Remote program goes through the motions, but announces, "Upload failed" after each image. The files seem to be fully uploaded, and Gallery App even sees that X number of new images have been created, but they all have broken-image icons. This one's weird!

Same problem here, but sporadically.

I can upload say 300 photos, 20 may pop up with this error. Just clicking upload again fixes the problem too.

Ok, that's a little different from my error. I can upload 100 photos, and 100 of them will show a Gallery Remote error. They're all on the server as files too. Unusable, unviewable files.

I had this error myself. My problem was the fact that I was trying to upload files that were too big for my installation. My php.ini was set for an upload of 2M, but I wanted to upload 7M pictures. There is a bit of information on this in the gallery faq. Try this information.

I'm getting this same error. Uploading from a Windows box with the lastest version of Gallery Remote to a Debian box with the latest version of Gallery. I've tried both file and database locking. Neither work. Every fifth image uploads (on average).

Here is my debug output:

Blah, this ended up being a problem with my max upload size (I upgraded to php5 recently). Gallery Remote should at least give you the same error as the "From Web Browser" tab of Add items. Just stating "upload failed" without stating why it failed is a serious bug.

Hi,

on my box this was issue with php unable to write to system tmp dir.

To fix this , check via phpinfo() where the tmp is set and make sure the correct permissions are setup for web server user to be able to write to that folder. In my case i had separate logical volume mounted as /tmp but with root:root 755 owner/rights which disallowed php to use it.

Also good way to debug possible related issues is to setup logging in php.ini, fe :
log_errors = On
error_log = /var/log/apache2/php-errors.log

as there was nothing logged in http logs or sa output of gallery remote client.

Following the phpinfo suggestion fixed it for me. I had the post_max_size set properly but also need to adjust the post_max_size set as well. This was on a Windows box.
