[quote author="dirkpostma" date="1255393173"]For people that read this forum with (about) the same problem: there is a bug in Upload class (CI 1.7.2) that can cause this error, see: http://codeigniter.com/bug_tracker/bug/6780/
Quick solution without patching CI is to set non-image types in front of allowed_types. So instead of "jpg|gif|pdf|zip", you should use "pdf|zip|jpg|zip".[/quote]
thanks this works for me
