Can't upload files (Warning! Please select a file)

I'm trying to upload files for download, however every time I get an error: 'Warning! Please select a file!' once upload is finished. Tried it several times with three different browsers, with no luck... The files are zip archives about 3.5 MB.

I have the same problem. I am not running a mac... rather MS7 at the moment. When I go to upload say, a picture for the manufacturer spot, it will let me browse for the picture, I am able to select it (or double-click, even). The file browser closes and I get a javascript alert, telling me to select a file. Many times tried and failed, not only for uploading pics. Not sure where to BEGIN to look for problem source.

I found another thread, but no luck so far. If we link the two threads together, we might be able to see few possible answers

I also have same problem Can't upload files (Warning! Please select a file).

Same problem here using Firefox, I have had to separate each download. It appears that the file size is actually limited to around 2Mb.

Hi, anyone found solution for this issue? I'm facing the same issue.
My apps is running is windows server 2003, IIS 6, PHP Version 5.3.8, Opencart version 1.9.4.3
Any suggestions?

Problem solve. I'm able to solve the problem by edit upload_tmp_dir in php.ini.
for more details, please refer to http://dotnetfish.blogspot.com/2011/11/ ... ncart.html

I'm facing this as well using a mac w/firefox. The OC version is 1.5.1.3. I saw this

and experimented by uploading a file under 2mb to see if that would help. That file was around 550Kb. While I wasn't successful at uploading the file, I did get a clear message this time that the file size was too big and that my upload needed to be under 300K. I uploaded a 30K file and was successful.

It appears that when image manager gives the "Warning: Please Select A File!", what's really going on is that the file is way too big for it to handle. If its over the limit but not too far over the limit, it'll complain accurately about what's going on.

I am still having this issue, I just tried uploading a file that is only 75kb. As I understand it, that shouldn't be a problem.
The workaround I have been using is just to manually upload the files via ftp but it doesn't make sense that it won't work from within the administrator portion of the site.

I simply can't tell my clients to use ftp to get the desired pictures uploaded.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

current version: 1.5.1

I also have same problem Can't upload files (Warning! Please select a file).
my opencart Version 1.4.9.3, Image folder permission 777, and my php.ini code is
Image manager is not work properly. (Warning! Please select a file).
Please Help me How to solve image manager issue.

changes for image size upload and php.ini

2m to 12m ?

incresae size of max post size from 2m to 12m

changes to codew at resize json error found on web
and changes to max upload from 300 kb to 10 mb


OpenCart’s default image upload size is 300KB and that is simply too small for clients that don’t have the knowledge to resize their images before uploading them. Although uploading digital camera images does use more bandwidth, sometimes it can not be avoided. To adjust the image upload size make the following changes around line 446 of admin/controller/common/filemanager.php:

if ($this->request->files['image']['size'] > 10485760) {
$json['error'] = $this->language->get('error_file_size');
}
In this case we have increased the upload size limit to 10MB, also make sure that your php configuration will allow file uploads and posts of this size.

Now you have these big images uploaded, but sometimes GD can run out of memory trying to resize these large images. You can solve this by using imagemagick, if available. So what we’re going to do is resize all images larger than 1000×1000 down to 1000×1000. Make the following changes around line 490 of admin/controller/common/filemanager.php:

if (!isset($json['error'])) {
if(substr($this->request->files['image']['type'],0,5)=='image'){
$imageinfo = getimagesize($this->request->files['image']['tmp_name']);
if($imageinfo[0]>1000 || $imageinfo[1]>1000){
exec('convert -colorspace RGB "'.$this->request->files['image']['tmp_name'].'" -resize 1000x1000 "'.$this->request->files['image']['tmp_name'].'"');
}
}
if (@move_uploaded_file($this->request->files['image']['tmp_name'], $directory . '/' . basename($this->request->files['image']['name']))) {
$json['success'] = $this->language->get('text_uploaded');
} else {
$json['error'] = $this->language->get('error_uploaded');
}
}
That’s it, your image upload file size limit has been lifted and memory usage issues have been dealt with!

Sorry forgot to add this link to help with increasing the size limits in php.ini
