Subject: RE: Having trouble uploading to the wiki
Alex,
I'd rather upload a complete file, and not take out the files like *.chr
Also for cygwin windows builds there are 20 DLLs that are needed.
So, I was before using legacy zip compression. So I zip with a better
compression and the file is a .zipx and about 5 megs smaller.
When I tried to upload that, it says " Upload denied. This file extension is
forbidden!"
Can/Will you increase the upload size restriction?
Frank and Alex,
The exact error messages is just 1 word "failed".
I'm not behind a corp. firewall.

When I upload files to the wiki, I do so by clicking the picture icon when
editing a wiki page. I am "unaware" of URLs like the above, and you
shouldn't need to be aware of that URL either.
OK, I've just checked - yes, the pop-up window with title "Media Files
[Openwall Community Wiki]" has the exact URL you mentioned.

I think I haven't seen it display upload progress percentage at all.
Maybe this is somehow browser-specific.

It may be less. We have these PHP settings:
post_max_size = 50M
upload_max_filesize = 50M
and DokuWiki derives its reported file size limit from them as follows:
/**
* Returns the size uploaded files may have
*
* This uses a conservative approach using the lowest number found
* in any of the limiting ini settings
*
* @returns int size in bytes
*/
function media_getuploadsize(){
$okay = 0;
$post = (int) php_to_byte(@ini_get('post_max_size'));
$suho = (int) php_to_byte(@ini_get('suhosin.post.max_value_length'));
$upld = (int) php_to_byte(@ini_get('upload_max_filesize'));
if($post && ($post < $okay || $okay == 0)) $okay = $post;
if($suho && ($suho < $okay || $okay == 0)) $okay = $suho;
if($upld && ($upld < $okay || $okay == 0)) $okay = $upld;
return $okay;
}
I'm not familiar with PHP internals to tell if any encoding overhead is
counted against any of these limits.

Try uploading a smaller file. In fact, I'd prefer that you don't make these
builds that large. Can you exclude the non-essential *.chr files, like I do
for official 1.8 tarballs? Just refer to a separate archive for those
extras.

Just how slow is it? Maybe you're hitting a timeout.
Thanks,
Alexander
