Warning: Please select a file!

Post by drofenaz » Sat Jan 07, 2012 4:04 pm

When I try to upload images via the file manager I get the error "Warning: Please select a file!" I get the warning on all browsers.

I have searched the forums but no one seems to have a working solution.

The part that is triggering the error is in "/admin/controller/common/filemanager.php" It's this if statement that isn't being fulfilled:

Code: Select all

if (isset($this->request->files['image']) && $this->request->files['image']['tmp_name'])
If anyone could help me solve this issue that would be great.

Thanks!

Hi

A quick solution, try re-uploading the admin folder. This will surely fix the problem.

I did a complete reinstall with a different version and I still have the same problem. I'm wondering if it's something sever-side. Any ideas?

This sounds like a permissions error to be honest. Check with your hosting that you have access to files via the apache user like this

If that's the case, the problem lies with your server settings. Try setting permission to all your folders 777. That might solve the problem.

Did you manage to solve issue via host and, if so, could you please offer solution?

Exactly same issue with newly installed 1.5.1.3 running on windows IIS. Tried various image formats, small size files, alternative browsers etc. Permissions all writable and can FTP to image directory but need to deliver via admin for client.

Any help greatly appreciated.

You guys should try contacting your host for help. That should be able to solve your problem. I have many up and running OpenCart and all is fine.

Why would it be a hosting issue? I have used open cart on several other godaddy account and never had this problem.

Dear muhupower,

I am also on Godaddy and encounter such a problem. Do you know if we can create session directory ourself? How to fix this?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Dear MarketInSG / muhupower,

Without luck, they don't support me as it is a third party application.

Could you identify how to solve this?

Thanks

He could contact Godaddy, so why couldn't you? It's their error on their side, so they gotta fix it somehow.

The creation of the session directory was key - big thanks muhupower for bringing this up. I've been working with hosting firm on this - ensuring permissions all OK etc but long trial and error process to pinpoint the problem.

First time I've hosted on Windows and no problems in past on Linux. Perhaps this issue is worthy of a mention in installation instructions?

Thanks again to all for help in resolving the problem.

Dear MarketInSG,

They said it is a third party app and they only have little support for it. We should pin point that the problem is from the hosting itself otherwise they wont support.

Can't we create that session directory by ourself?

What else should I do?
