Error message is "You did not select a file to upload" but the actual error is that "the file is too big". |

Code: $config['upload_path'] = $path; I set up the limits for uploading file, the max size is 8000 KB for example, the type is pdf. If I try to upload a jpg file, I would get the right error message, "The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed." But if I try to upload a file that is 10000 KB, I would get "You did not select a file to upload." message, which is misleading. But actually it is the size problem. I should get the messages like the below either $lang['upload_file_exceeds_limit'] = "The uploaded file exceeds the maximum allowed size in your PHP configuration file."; or $lang['upload_file_exceeds_form_limit'] = "The uploaded file exceeds the maximum size allowed by the submission form."; Could anyone help me to get the right error message returned? Plus, when I upload a size too large file, it took a long time for the response "The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed." to be returned. Any advices on this too? Thanks!

OK, found the reason. If the file size is greater than post_max_size, then the $_FILES will be empty. http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.fi....php#57193 In this case, CI upload class would generate a misleading error message "You did not select a file to upload". Is there anyway that we can extend the Upload class to generate the right error message in the case "the file size is greater than post_max_size"? Could I use the $_SERVER['CONTENT_LENGTH'] to detect this error? http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.fi....php#73762 Any chances, CI developer can add this error checking into the Upload library? |
