Mbstring stopping photos being uploaded - Newscoop Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

mark casson

We have a few instances of newscoop on a vps - i had our vps provider install the mbstring component as i need it for a directory on one of the sites

Since this has been installed no photos can be uploaded in newscoop

obviously this has to be the problem but i cant figure out how the Mbstring function is related to photo uploads or is there a workaround i can do so i can keep the Mbstring installed

Andrey Podshivalov

any php error? (check apache error log file)

mark casson

this is todays log

it did originally create a null photo so i deleted that from sql and the actual pic but not you click attach - drag over your pic - upload - get the green tick - when it goes back to the page - nothing in images and nothing online

just as i posted that one of our journalists just emailed me with this from one of the sites

Mark, I've been able to get to the first window to select and upload a pic, but I now get a new error message. See attached.

Andrey Podshivalov

This function has been disabled by hoster. Open a ticket on hoster support.

mark casson

is this a consequence on the install and subsequent uninstall of the Mbstring

Andrey Podshivalov

I don't think so

mark casson

so what could have cause this, especially as its system wide not just for one instance

mark casson

well the mbstring has been removed now there seems to be 2 different errors

the site that i sent the log file from - when you upload the picture and click the - Next: Upload and edit the Metadata - that screen is blank - always has been - when you click the x - the picture is not in the images

when i checked the logs nothing was in there for the time i tried

the 2nd error is exactly the same but this time when you click the next: upload and edit meta data - again it should be blank but now i get the Fatal error: Call to undefined function posix_getuid() in /home/lincolns/public_html/classes/Image.php on line 1250 - error

mark casson

asked my hoster to enable the posix and he replied with

This presents us with another issue, POSIX library isn't compatible with the way your server is setup - i don't know if/how this was ever enabled. It might be that a new update to cPanel has disabled POSIX for certain configurations.

now i just have internal 500 errors on all newscoop sites

Howdy, Stranger!
