Title: Expose - Could not connect error! [SOLVED]
Post by: rentasite on November 25, 2008, 23:26:39

Hi, i try to upload pictures using the Expose installation and i get the error u see in the attachment.

It's not the 1st time i try to upload pics on that installation. In the past, i did not face such problem. The upload process seems to go fine... but at the end i get that message.

Any idea?


Thanks
Spiros

I did a system check through Expose. Here are the Warnings.

Register Globals Emulation: Enabled
Disabled functions: show_source, system, passthru, popen, proc_open, allow_url_fopen
Session Save path: NOT writable
FreeType Support: disabled
Allow Url Fopen: disabled

Try to make session path writable. I think this component is much safer if you upload pictures via FTP in to photo bucket. What OS are you using on your PC?

PS
Why is Register Globals Emulation enabled?

Why is Register Globals Emulation enabled?

According to the php.ini register_globals is off   ??? ::)  Regarding the message below, i must say that: In that Elxis installation, in Global Configuration i have set Register Globals Emulation to OFF. And as i said... the funny thing is that in php.ini register_globals is off  ::)

Register Globals Emulation - enabled - Warning
For security reasons, disable RG_EMULATION in Elxis global configuration.
Register Globals Emulation is `ON` by default for backward compatibility.

Register Globals emulation is defined locally in Configuration -> Server Tab. You set it in enabled?

hm... but when you press the Upload button you only use javascript function popupWindow, which are defined in /includes/js/elxis.js. This function only open new popup window by standart javascript object method. Did you try use another browser?

I recompiled php with freetype and it seems to work fine now.  - SOLVED -

But the matter related to "Register Globals Emulation" is very weird . Its OFF and it shows ON  ::)
