Hi,

I have the following setup:

Web server    Apache 2.2.19
PHP version    5.3.6
MySQL version    5.1.58
GD Image library    bundled (2.0.34 compatible) 

media/com_fpss    Writable  (755)
cache    Writable          (755)

Frontpage Slideshow v3.1.0

I read for hours this forum and tried things like deleting the files in frontpage cache.
I tried all different FPSS_MOD_JQUERY_LIBRARY_HANDLING options.

But what ever I do nothing helps I can not upload images to the slideshow when i try I get the message:
File error. Please try again.

I only managed to put in some pictures through  the src folder.

How can I solve this?

best regards,

Martin

Seems to be permission issue.
Please pm me access to your super admin.

I too am having this exact issue. Any ideas?


Web server    Apache/2.2.13 (Unix)
PHP version    5.2.11
MySQL version    5.0.92-community
GD Image library    bundled (2.0.34 compatible)

media/com_fpss    Writable  (777)
cache    Writable          (777)

Frontpage Slideshow v3.1.0
Joomla Version 1.7.3

Please install Admin Tools from www.akeebabackup.com/ in order to fix your permissions as they should be and then reinstall the extension.

I installed the admin tools extension and checked / fixed permissions. Then removed the frontpage slide show component en reinstalled it again. I kept the default settings of the module and then tried to upload an image.  Unfortunately I still have the same problem  :(   

Could you pm me access to your backend please.

Finally solved  :D

Finally I've been able to solve the problem.  It was caused by the admin praise administrator template that I had installed.
When I replaced that template by the default one of joomla the problem was solved!

This is not solved for me. I am still unable to upload images or select an image from the server. I keep getting the "File error. Please try again." When I select an image (either via upload or selected on server) a grey image box appears and says "Image Preview" then stops before anything loads. As soon as you try to save the slide the error appears.

I have installed Admin Tools, fixed permissions, uninstalled fpss, then reinstalled it. No luck.

I have now done a fresh Joomla install. The first extension I installed was Admin Tools. Fixed permissions, then installed FPSS. Same issue.

I have switched back and forth from admin templates.

I can upload files through media manager just fine.

All file permissions are correct.

I couldn't get it working with the following settings:

Web server    Apache/2.2.13 (Unix)
PHP version    5.2.11
MySQL version    5.0.92-community
GD Image library    bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
media/com_fpss    Writable  (777)
cache    Writable          (777)
Frontpage Slideshow v3.1.0
Joomla Version 1.7.3

And it does not work with the new install:
Everything the same as above other than Joomla Version 2.5


Anyone? Please help...

@webbman,
if you are sure that you did correctly all the above you have mentioned, then the only thing left doing is upgrade your PHP version to at least 5.3.

Hi this is still happening to me. I have even upgraded to PHP version 5.3.10. I have tried everything above.


PHP Version 5.3.10
Web Server Apache/2.2.22
Joomla! Version Joomla! 2.5.4 Stable
Database Version 5.0.95-community
media/com_fpss    Writable  (777)
cache    Writable          (777)

Any ideas? Anyone?
