video upload failed (video error)

my dolphin7 site always shows that video upload failed (video error) when i upload a video. I will make things a little bit clear.. when i upload videos, i uploads 100% and at the end it shows that video upload failed (video error).. i dont know the problem with this..  even i have checked thrice the dolphin folder and i cant find any solution for this..

the old installation was still good and it uploads video .. the problem araises with dolphin 7 only.. i have even checked the cron jobs and it has no error..

can some one help me out with this..

my dolphin 7 url: www.linktoprofessionals.com/community

are the files being written to the /files directory of /mp3 section of your site?

also, what is your max_post size and max_upload size

Regards,

DosDawg

Hello,

I have the same problem with video upload. Thanks a lot in advance for a help!

Hi DosDawg,

How can I check max_post size and max_upload size?  I am a new here, please help me out! Thanks a lot in advance

hi the settings are: post_max_size = 200M upload_max_filesize = 16M those settings are in php.ini file.. and my host says that i get error log as follows: PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/user/public_html/community/inc/utils.inc.php on line 895, referer: http://linktoprofessionals.com/community/m/videos/albums/my/add_objects/Business-Strategies/owner/administrator

When people talk about paths, I find it helps to include the full path, at least from the top level folder of the site...

My full server path is /var/www/dolphin  and I know just about everyone will have something different, so I would not include that part.

Are you talking about flash/modules/mp3/files/   ???

Because I believe there are also file folders for ray apps.

Also, DosDawg,

Why did you ask about /mp3 ??? sampath said he is having issues with videos (and so am I).

You are absolutely right mr.LeatherSportB, i am more confused of what  DosDawg has told.. why should we look upon mp3 files as we are having issues with videos uploading?

moreover, my sounds files(mp3) are uploading perfectly without any mistake..

i am tired of trying several times to figure out the exact problem, i have even spoke to my host provider and the clue he gave me is the following error log:

PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/user/public_html/community/inc/utils.inc.php on line 895, referer: http://linktoprofessionals.com/community/m/videos/albums/my/add_objects/Business-Strategies/owner/administrator

i have even deleted the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION manually and tried again, it is of no use..

please somebody help me as i am receiving many complaints from my customers daily regarding video uploading..

it never worked out..

even i tried to uninstall it and reinstall..

no change.. the same continues..

the problem is probably not with the host provider and only with some scripts..(?)

In that error it says "PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or"

Is Safe Mode on? Check your Admin Panel>Tools> Host Tools and go through all 3 tabs and make sure everything is on. Also check with your host to make sure they have Shell_Exec adn POPEN enabled in their server PHP configuration.

dear Zarcon these are the settings i found in cpanel

These PHP configuration settings are customizable by the server administrator. They are listed for reference only.

Those settings are set (heh) pretty low. Also, why am I getting a login window for CPanel when viewing this topic?

that may be due to that i have copied directly fromcpanel and posted here..

so, what should i do to make my video upload work?

I'm getting the same error no matter what I do. I have read through this and made sure of my crons and checked my admin/tools/admin tools/host params and everything is on. My settings might be a little low because it shows the min. of what is required. (how do I change post_max_size and upload max file size). What I am wondering about is the settings for ffmpeg output and installed apache modules.

Memory_limit is too small. It takes a lot of memory to convert a cideo file or a sound file. I set mine to unlimited, default is 128, yours is 32. I would try upsizing it and see what happens. Try 256 to start....

If you are getting a permissinon denied when running ffmpeg.exe, either it's not set to 755 or 777 OR your host is blocking executable

I had a working edition of 7.0.3 and it stoped doing video upload and conversion same type of error fail and it turned out that the ffmpeg.exe had it's permissions reset some how. Either the hosting company did it, or it reset itself magiaclly. I fixed it and now it's working.

How do I fix the permissions on the ffmpeg.exr file?

 I am having this same problem... I am also having with problem with "record" as well

 Tries this and also set it to 512 and still it doesn't work still get the same error "video upload failed (video error)"

I can't upload MP3 files or video files.  Here's the error messages I get:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/aeumedia/public_html/flash/modules/mp3/files/213477_temp) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpxwMzea' to '/home/aeumedia/public_html/flash/modules/mp3/files/213477_temp' in /home/

Any ideas?

 I figured it out.  I did not have the "files" folders in my /mp3/ and /videos/ folders.  The uploads work now.
