Image hosting problem with Servimg

A number of members, including myself are experiencing problems with the upload function via Servimg. Going through the usual process of choosing a file, it's size and hosting works fine. But once the percentage upload has reached 100% you then get an error message saying 'no image has been selected for upload'. Anyone else getting this? Know of a solution?

i didnt have this problem but here is written how to change your image uploader

Thanks qmars. I'd rather keep the hosting original if possible first rather than introduce new variables.

Hello have you tried uploading on a different browser and a fix for this is go on to
The current image site. ( search sevrimg ) and login with your admin account details.  And try and upload the Image there

Hi,

I am not experiencing the issue myself, lets try to further clarify:

Is it also happening here, on the support forum?
If so, can u please try to clear the cache & cookies of ur browser?

Are any of your members also experiencing this as well?

Some of our members are having issues, too.  It started when the 'copy' buttons disappeared.  It  looks like this on forumotion, our forum, and my test forum, on FF, Chrome, and Opera.  

It's still workable, but it did confuse some less experienced members.

Here are the symptoms from some members who know how to post pictures.  I haven't been able to duplicate their problems.

Have there been any changes made in the last couple weeks that I missed?

I had a problem with serving, when I went to the admin panel of my forumotion forum and I tried to upload a forum banner it would say "You are not logged in", but when I went to the Serving.com site it let me upload just fine. The problem fixed itself so I didn't bother saying anything on here.

Our members are experiencing exactly what boffer10's link describes. I think something has changed in the ability of Servimg to accept and change image file sizes. If people have to start editing their pics prior to hosting them that will discourage them from uploading them.

Btw I cleared the cache and cookies yet the issue remained using both IE and Chrome.

Hi,

I've reported this thread to our Pro Admin who'll be on tomorrow.

I thank you all for your patience.

Thank you, Derri.

I couldn't duplicate the problem because I always reduce my picture file size before uploading.

I tried a 2.7MB picture file (a big one) and got this:



Then I selected 'Browse' again, selected a small picture (Screenshot5, 10KB), and got this:



I selected 'Host it', and got the 3 lines of code we're used to seeing, and was able to post the picture.

It appears that Servimg is handling large file sizes differently.

you Derri, we have many members that cant host any photos. Our admin of our forum is also having a problem

Hello

Infact, there are 2 bugs. The first one, it was not possible to upload image > 2ko and the error message sentence was incorrect

Thanks, it should be solved

Hi,

As Buttercup said above the problem should now be solved. Can you guys confirm this?

Thanks so much Buttercup and Derri, our admin is just waiting for one of our members who has not been online.
As soon as we hear from him will post here

OK I am one of honeybees members and I have conducted a few trials, here are results so far.
I first tried an upload of an image originally sized at 4320 wide while using Firefox as browser and asked Servimg to resize down to 640 wide. It did so with no problems.
I then went over to Internet Explorer as my browser and tried the same, the result was a box saying it couldn't display anything.

So I then used a different image that was already at a size of 720, obviously smaller than the default setting of 800. Servimg had no problem with it then and hosted it so it could be posted on the forum.

So in conclusion it would seem that there is a problem with resizing when the member is using Internet Explorer, however other browsers do not seem to have a problem as some have reported it is OK when using Google Chrome.

Nev.

So it seems that the issue is with Internet Explorer, not Forumotion?

It is obviously some odd coding error that is conflicting with IE as Internet explorer has had no recent updates or patches that could account for it, it stems from whatever happened recently with Servimg as Internet explorer worked OK previously.

I have had the same problem with photos over 2MB, so just re-sized them, but now I can't even start to host photos as for 2 days I continually get this message from servimg, and I am not the only member with this problem.

What do I do now?
