[RESOLVED] Upload results in "null"

Kalynda · Post by **Kalynda** » November 19th, 2016, 10:37 am

Just started having a problem with uploads. Manage to properly upload a bunch, then a few minutes ago, I started having a problem. When you hit upload, the progress bar fills up, but then where the URL should be, it just says "null".

Before I posted, I tried:
1. Two different browsers (Chrome & IE)
2. Clearing my history and cookies
3. Rebooting everything

And the problem persists. However, it seems to be MC specific. I was uploading to Carolin ... tried ezwa and it worked fine. Haven't tried any others yet.

Try removing all metadata (id tags). Are there any "strange" characters in the file name?

I looked at your posting history. The other people that read for the German project used "guenther" instead of "günther" in the file name. That's a possible cause, if you used the umlaut.

If it were in the file or the file name, it wouldn't be "MC specific" (as Kalynda pointed out), would it?

I was assuming she uploaded a different file to one vs. the other MC. I could be wrong, though.

Could Carolin's repository be full? I mean, be filled up to the point where no more files could be placed in it?

Tricia nailed it. I always cut and paste file names, so didn't even notice the umlaut. Resaved it as guenther and it worked fine.

Thanks!

That's why she's an admin... And gets paid the big bucks!

Yay! Glad it worked.

You may want to suggest the BC change the file name in the project.

I did. Thanks again.
