Simpleboard keeps asking for file to upload

[mnhim]

I have just installed Simpleboard and configured it to allow file and image attached. I assumed this is an option when you post a message you can choose to upload or not. But when I submit the post (without a file to upload), I get an error message that says:

"Please select a file before uploading. Your file has not been uploaded. Try posting again or editing the post".

Then I get:

Warning: unlink(/usr/home/mnhim2/public_html/components/com_simpleboard/uploaded/files/a8c25bc7428853cc0732231a9be34c26.): No such file or directory in /usr/home/mnhim2/public_html/components/com_simpleboard/file_upload.php on line 41

Warning: unlink(/usr/home/mnhim2/public_html/components/com_simpleboard/uploaded/images/013d1e8242c6d7171636e6915ce69a93.): No such file or directory in /usr/home/mnhim2/public_html/components/com_simpleboard/image_upload.php on line 40



So I turned off the uploading feature, and I still get the same error message. How do I fix this problem?

Posting it with a file will work fine, but most of the time you post with out a file. How do I post it without a file and not get the error.

I changed some in components\com_simpleboard\post.php

Change

PHP Code:

if ($attachfile != '' ) {
                  $noFileUpload=0;
                  include $sbp.'/file_upload.php';
                  if ($rc==0){
                     $noFileUpload=1;
                  }
               }
               if ($attachimage != '' ) {
                  $noImgUpload=0;
                  include $sbp.'/image_upload.php';
                  if ($rc==0){
                     $noImgUpload=1;
                  }
               } 


on rule 186 to rule 199

to

PHP Code:

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['attachfile']['tmp_name'])) {
                  $noFileUpload=0;
                  include $sbp.'/file_upload.php';
                  if ($rc==0){
                     $noFileUpload=1;
                  }
               }
               if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['attachimage']['tmp_name'])) {
                  $noImgUpload=0;
                  include $sbp.'/image_upload.php';
                  if ($rc==0){
                     $noImgUpload=1;
                  }
               }

Invalid Fix, see below...

Are you running simpleboard or mamboboard. I see errors from both in this post!

The editing trick worked for my installation!

My previously posted fix does not work. It actually caused no attachments to be uploaded at all.

I also have a site running Joomla! & the new version of simpleboard, called JoomlaBoard. JoomlaBoard doesn't have the issues that the most recent version of SimpleBoard has.

So, here's what I did, I downloaded the JoomlaBoard v1.1.2 & started comparing the file_upload.php & image_upload.php files. These files we extremely similar, but the new version had fixes in place for this problem, plus handling for spaces & special characters in the file name! So, I tried replacing the existing SimpleBoard file_upload.php & image_upload.php files, with those from JoomlaBoard v1.1.2 and it worked!!! YMMV

Hmmm. I tried the Joomlaboard patch and I still get four popup error message with each post.
1. Please select a file before uploading. Your file has not been uploaded. Try posting again or editing the file.
2. You are only allowed to upload files of type:\n zip, txt, pdf. Your file has not been uploaded. Try posting again or editing the file.
3. Please select a file before uploading. Your file has not been uploaded. Try posting again or editing the file.
4. Please use only jpeg, gif, or png files. Your file has not been uploaded. Try posting again or editing the file.

I followed your advice and now it does in fact let me upload files with no errors. Thanks again!
