Hey Angelo! :^)

Are you looking in the /components/com_k2/lib folder by any chance? It should be in the /administrator/components/com_k2/lib folder.

Ten thousand thanks to Nick Texidor, his solution works!!!!

Hi Nick! I just wanted to say that I was having the exact same problem and your solution worked like a charm! thanks a million!!!



Nick Texidor said:For those people having problems with the uploading of files, and have already ruled out a problem with permissions, I have a solution....
The quick fix is to edit /administrator/components/com_k2/lib/class.upload.php. Go to the init() function, and change the following variables from true to false:

$this->mime_fileinfo = false; // MIME detection with Fileinfo PECL extension
$this->mime_file = false; // MIME detection with UNIX file() command
$this->mime_magic = false; // MIME detection with mime_magic (mime_content_type())

You are 'SUPPOSED' to be able to override these settings in the calling script, however, because of a fundamental flaw in the design, it doesn't actually work :^)

I have documented the flaw in another post, but the above should at least get you working!

No worries... glad it's all working for you! :^)

Hi all,

I tried the following solution kindly proposed by Nick Texidor (below), but it don't work. Did someone have a solution to enable the upload of images in the "Edit Item" - Image tab. Thank you in advance for your Help. Bill

$this->mime_fileinfo = false; // MIME detection with Fileinfo PECL extension
$this->mime_file = false; // MIME detection with UNIX file() command
$this->mime_magic = false; // MIME detection with mime_magic (mime_content_type())

Hi Bill,

If changing the MIME type settings didn't work for you, there are a couple of other things you can try... first off, are the permissions on the /media/k2 folder set correctly? I usually set /media/k2 and all sub-directories to 777 to make sure that's not the problem.

If they're all ok, the other thing you could try is displaying the upload log to see if it shows any kind of problem: Edit the file /administrator/components/com_k2/models/item.php, and search for //image. About 9 or 10 lines down from that, you should see the following:

$handle = new Upload($image);

under that, add:

echo $handle->log;

Next, try and add an image to an item. You should see some debug output on the screen Have a quick scan and see if it shows anything obvious. If you're not sure, send me the text in a PM and I'll have a look for you.

Hope this helps a little
N
