My users are reporting to me that they can not upload attachments. All they get when they try is a block of code in a red box but this does not produce errors in the log files. I can post attachments just fine. Just not my members.

I couldn't read the other screenshot, but the top looked the same...

Looks like insertion of the logo is doing something...  Might also be theme related?

The logo was just made wrong that's all. It did honestly look like crap, so I fixed how it looked, no code behind it. Also, I am running the new tp 2.0 not the older one, so that might make a difference, not sure.

Sorry Bigguy, I assumed you were having bigger issues with the logo.   If you Un-install TP I'll test the attachments again.  ;)

October 29, 2020, 07:01:35 PM
TP was uninstalled and attachments tested and they still do not work. So something must be up with SMF. Unless it's a different mod I have installed which I can't see that really.

lurkalot

Yep it was exactly the same without TP installed.

Was this the release version of RC3, or a later one from GitHub after the official release?

After the official release. Not sure how long after but it was not the official release that I used. It was after that.

Try attaching a image as a regular member and see if you get the same result.  I'm guessing you don't see it logged in as admin.

I uninstalled the gallery mod. That is the only mod that was installed that you could upload to besides SMF. So maybe it was that. I have not tested as I deleted my test user.

No changes other than what mods did. I only have two installed right now. Tp, which was tested by uninstalling and trying attachments, which still did not work. The other is the updated version of Simple Audio Video imbedder that I just installed today.

I just updated the forum from GH now. I created a test user so I could test out the attachments as a regular user. I have two screenshots. Both are of the posts I tried. admin.png is me as an admin typing a post. smfhtest.png is of the new test user. My question is this:
Why does the text in the post look different from the admin shot to the member shot. It may have something to do with attachments but I am not sure. It's really weird.

No it's not. I just thought it may have something to do with why the text in those 2 post boxes is different. It should not be different like that between Admin and members should it ??

That is a dump of what appears to be multiple .js scripts that were for some reason not loaded properly.  Instead of being passed to your browser for execution, they ended up displayed as html content...  Another clue a template is broken, in this instance, my guess is a missing script tag somehow.

If you see that error in earnest, it should be accompanied with an http500 message somewhere in your apache log...

I still cannot duplicate on my site.  But I did find a few things out...

I suspect there is a permissions issue of some sort.  The attached is the message it is trying to display.

Dropzone (the 3rd party open source we use to make uploading attachments easier), instead of displaying the error, is coughing up the html...  Other sites have experienced this before:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39761736/dropzone-image-upload-error-display-how-to-remove-error

We did update the min version of jquery recently, used by dropzone...  Worth making sure we don't have a jquery issue here. 

So... 
- Please double-check all SMF permissions.
- Double-check the attachment folder setting, & attachment folder OS-level permissions.
- Do you have a custom jquery library specified?  Under Features & Options | General? 

If you find anything, please share...

I logged this up on GitHub, to make sure we look into Dropzone error reporting:

I will check permissions on SMF and in cpanel. No, I did not have a custom jquery library specified but will try that as well. I shoulda went to the console, damn it, lol. I'll share anything I find, thank you sir.

It's also interesting that that url gets a 403 when invoked from dz/js but not when you type it in the browser url bar. 

It might also be worth it to talk with your host about mod_sec rules that may have been enabled.

Now that attachments are working, there is still a bug. It will not count how many people have viewed the attachment. I just posted one on my site and viewed it twice and a member has viewed it once and it still says 0 people have viewed the attachment.
