I tried to upload a screenshot of the problem, but (naturally) that didn't work. Tried .JPG and .PNG.

We load pupil photos in to progresso. Very useful at registration for cover staff. Our photographer provides the JPEGS and we resize them using IrfanView, before bulk(ish) import as guided by progresso's documentation. The killer in the process is mapping the pupil's face to their Learner ID and renaming all the files. The photographer has said they have a solution with another school where they use some kind of bar-coding, but it comes at a cost. We might be able to just ask for photos to be taken in a predefined order (but allowing for gaps) and I can run a script to rename, but that feels error prone. Additionally, the photographer tends to take clusters of photos so that makes life even trickier. I'm interested to know how other progresso users have tackled this conundrum, or indeed any other MIS user which supports pupil photo upload.

Hi All, I'm kinda new to joomla, dipped my toe in before, but only briefly, but do have a few years of web design, programing in PHP, ASP, etc... I've just completed a fresh install of edugeek 1.5 and am having problems uploading images. This is a fresh, clean install no other extensions added, the only change I've made is to disable the flash uploading from the global configuration as suggested in another thread. When I click the [image] link at the bottom of an article, the lightbox opens, but is plain white with it's black border and close button... nothing else. I have included a screenshot here http://stmarks.hostei.com/upload.tiff I am working on MacOSX 10.5.8, and am having this issue in both Safari & Firefox, unable to test in ie/win until tomorrow. I will provide an update then. Any help you can give me would really be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Dave

Hi Nick, I have installed version 7.8 this morning and have been having a play with the My Files - it is looking good, much better than the legacy browsers. Anyway, I have found that certain files seem to fail on upload. These files are allowed file types, things such as flv's and pdf's - though I don't think there is any relation to the type of file. I was wondering if it were due to the size of the files as I have noticed it with 4mb pdf's and 100mb flv's, but, we do have the following in our web.config file that should stop this? I noticed that Firebug is reporting the following request as a 404 response: "NetworkError: 404 Not Found - https://domain.com/HAP/api/myfiles-upload/L/" Any ideas? On an unrelated note, if I was to make a suggestion, would it be possible for the My Drives on the left to be initially expanded to show the mapped drives?

Hi all, We've been asked to look into doing a migration to the cloud but instead of using SharePoint and 365 we'd be using Google. Does anyone have any experience is uploading rather large file shares to Google Drive/Shared Drives and any tools they've used? Any help is great appreciated!

We are running Moodle 1.9.8 on Windows Server 2008 R2 using a mysql db. We're having an issue where teachers upload images via the html text editor and it will upload fine, however the file doesn't get the permissions it should in order for other users to view it. The permissions are correct on the parent directory, and the file itself says its inheriting, but it gets a completely different set of permissions until you either untick-re-tick inheritance, or tell the parent directory to reapply permissions to child files/folders... If you create a file in the directory via notepad or whatever, it gets the permissions properly, so it seems to be something relating to moodle applying them when it creates?

Hey guys, Ive been playing with Fog for a while now and am having massive issues with it. I can see it has massive potential, and I really want to replace the WDS we currently have. I hav Unbuntu 10.04 and Fog .29 installed. DHCP is on another server with options 066 ad 067 configured. I can pxe boot, install the service, register hoasts etc...but The first problem is running behind a proxy, so updating is iffy at best. I have discovered i can put password"at symbol"proxy.address in the proxy settings on the server but this dosent seem to work for everything, so i'm not 100% sure that fog is installed correctly The second problem (and this is only a recent thing) is the icons and images on the web interface do not display correctly. This is a massive pain when you have to click on images to upload, edit and kill processes, the only way I have found around this is to run in IE (and who really wants to do that), the images are replaced with the red crosses, but are still clickable. After a bit of searching i found that if i edit the httpd.conf file (which is blank.....) and add these 2 lines; EnableSendfile off EnableMMAP off Then the images will appear, seems a bit weird, and I'm sure the first time I installed fog on VirtualBox all the images were there... The third (and final...I promise) problem is when I try to upload an image to the server. It recognises that there is an upload pending and starts loading the correct image, it will backup the MBR, resize and all that jazz ok, although i do see this error now right at the top after it loads init.gz and before it starts resizing atl1c 000:02:00.0: Unable to allocate MSI interrupt Error: -1 I dont know if this is a serious error or not? But after its resized the blue uploading screen will flash for a split second, then it moves on, restores the MBR and resizes the NTFS and starts complaining that it cant move the 50gb temp image that it supposidly uploaded in .5 seconds to the correct folder. Any ideas to any of these problems? I'm going to try and boot up my old virtual fog server to check the httpd.conf file but really, im lost!!

Moodle (1.9.2) starts properly, can login properly. I can open a course - turn editing on - then under "add a resource" - I select "link to a file or website". I'm given a blank white page only (in fact there's a problem with all the items on this pull down menu). This only happened a few days back - but can't seem to find any help on Moodle forums. It's happening in school and at home (so I think I can rule out internal work servers issues or webfiltering). Moodle is remotely stored on a linux server - it's more storage and we internally manage it - so I'm not expecting the provider to be of much use (but I have asked). Appreciate any advice that anyone can offer.

Hi All, We are currently looking at Office 365. However we have noticed a flaw, you cannot upload folders using a browser. We are currently using Chrome 40.x and I have read a couple of article saying it is possible to drag and drop folders if you are using chrome. Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case here. Has anyone found a way of uploading folders without using the OneDrive software?

We are looking at collecting a form we make and securely uploading it to an area. Both Google and Microsoft Forms allow this is you register but making the parents login or register will be a pain. Is there any way we can use Google or Microsoft Forms to upload documents anonymously? If not what other options do I have? I have seen a website that offers it for Google Forms for $4 a month per form but there must be a way to do it free surely?
