Odd very odd.
I create an upload filed in the editor and restricted it to a swf extension with about 13 megabytes limit.
Then I went back to the editor to upload the swf file and it failed... The CMS told me to "log back in or disable the flash uploader in the general settings..."
So I did and tried the regular uploader. Half a minute later, the modal upload window loaded the CMS within the modal.

very odd.

Hi,

Did it log you out of the CMS? Do you find that you get logged out randomly? Do you experience this problem with any other browsers?

Let us know and we can take a closer look into this.

Thanks

No didn't log me out.

And I'll admit this is the first time I have ever 'allowed' a client to put up their own swf content. I usually restrict the uploader to images only.

I'll try firefox and safari later tonight if I can.

Tried Firefox and same thing happened.
Pic attached.
It doesn't log you out.

The size limit is 13520 and I set it for 1 upload only. The extension is limited to swf only. I have it set to save to a /swf/ folder on the root of the site.
The editor is a Multi-record for this section. I don't think there is anything I missed.

Would you guys like to have a look?

Looks like we have a related post

Yeah Jason, I think I'll have to fill out a request.
I got the original source videos from the client and all they had was swf and mov. So I encoded the mov but didn't want to have a flv and a swf player so I opted for a html5 video tag.
I generated a mp4 from the mov and the section editor did the same thing as before. Telling me to turn off flash uploader, did that.... then tried the ol skool upload and the modal went back to the home CMS page when finished.
Very odd.

I have the same problem by uploading a 100Mb ZIP or PDF file.
Smaller files are working - maybe it is a timing issue, but I am still loged in when the error message shows up

Hi,

What is the error message you are getting?

A 100MB file is unusually large, so a timeout is very possible.

Thanks

Hi Jason,

The message is "log back in or disable the flash uploader in the general settings..." - with turned of Flash it does not work either. We use this feature to upload files for clients and it should work for up to 1 Gb.

Thanks
