Hi Dave,

I seem to have no record of the ticket number. They normally get emailed after filling out the form don't they? Just checked all email folders and got nothing atm.

I am happy to fill out another one if required. Our net connection has been a bit iffy today....

Hi Paul,

Ok, I think I've identified the issue. When you have a custom upload path/url set for a field it adds the hostname to the thumbUrlPath, etc fields.

Can you try this custom change?

- Open /lib/upload_functions.php
- Search for realUrl (around line 533)
- Replace this:
if (!isAbsoluteUrl($uploadUrl)) {
$uploadUrl = realUrl($uploadUrl, $SETTINGS['uploadUrl']);
}

- With this:
if (!preg_match("|^/|", $uploadUrl)) {
$uploadUrl = realUrl($uploadUrl, $SETTINGS['uploadUrl']);
$uploadUrl = preg_replace("|^\w+://[^/]+|", '', $uploadUrl); // remove scheme://hostname
}

Let me know if that works for you. If so we'll include it in 2.10.

Thanks!

Hi Dave,

Sorry but I rolled back the website to version 2.08 as it is a live national site. I really need to look into setting up a live test area, but due to the pressures I am under this has not yet been possible.

Is it OK to duplicate a CMSB install /setup using the same product code for test purposes? If so I will try and do something this week as it will help us all. Especially when you have got back so quick with a potential solution!

Kind Regards

Paul

Hi Paul,

Yes, we'd call that a "staging" install. and staging or test installs are fine and allowed by the license agreement.

Let me know how it goes and anything else I can do to help. Thanks!
