What would cause this error? E_WARNING: exif_read_data(upload_OEkvSF): Illegal IFD size

Hi equinox,

This is a bug we're aware of - the error itself is relatively benign, and is caused when uploading images that were created or compressed in certain ways. We are working on a more permanent fix, but in the meantime, you can silence this error by adding an "@" to line 177 in /cmsb/lib/images_functions.php, which should look like this:

$exif = @exif_read_data($imageFilePath);

Let me know if you have any further questions!

Thanks,

Understood, Daniel. It would be nice (or helpful) to know when the bug is fixed permanently.  thank you kindly!

One other thought on this, Daniel...

Is there any, or what is the, danger of turning this error off? Are there other situations where this is needed and we should be warned of something? Thanks.

Thanks for the clarifying, Daniel.
