Problem with uploading

[prokop]

Hi,

I've searched the forum but couldn't find anything for this specific error.

Whenever I upload an image, I get the following error (eventhough the image is uploaded correctly):

+++
Warning: include_once() [function.include-once]: Unable to access ../includes/IXR_Library.inc in /home/www/web232/html/addons/admin_ping.php on line 50

Warning: include_once(../includes/IXR_Library.inc) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/web232/html/addons/admin_ping.php on line 50

Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening '../includes/IXR_Library.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /home/www/web232/html/addons/admin_ping.php on line 50
+++

I have been building my own templates. Did I possibly screw something up? Can anyone tell me, what the warning message means?

Any help is greatly appreceated.

if this file cannot be found, you should check if it is there!
if the paths are ok, if the file is uploaded in ASCII-mode and not BINARY-mode, etc.

it would be good if you list here the info about your installation which you find in the admin area, because that is exactly why this info is there ;=)

Hey Connie,

thanks for your reply. The specified files seem to be present. I've copied now some stuff from the admin section. If you need some more information, please let me know, as I urgently want to get rid of the problem.

could it be, that an addon is causing this problem?
could you take off (not only deactivating) the addons one after the other and check?

does this happen when you use other templates as well?

hey connie (hab mir gerade mal deine seiten angesehen, wir können uns wohl auch auf deutsch unterhalten - oder kollidiert das mit den forum-regeln? :)

figured, that the addin:

Ping service (admin_ping - version 1.0) - status: ON

is causing the problem. What next? ;)

Shall I try to use different templates? Thanks again!

Hi!

For the "general forums" we want to stick with english, for german, we have the german forum, so we could continue there

but it makes no sense to move this thread, I think

I will have a look at your template, maybe I see a reason for this problem with ping..

[Connie]

some points:

1)
all CSS-elements should be in lowercase
2)
<meta name="page-topic" content="bark@dogs.com - throwing your beauty back at you.">
there is no meta-element with the name "page-topic and the bracked should be closed:
<meta name="page-topic" content="bark@dogs.com - throwing your beauty back at you." />

oh my god, this template is so full of errors!

3)
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

delete the second one!!!!!

7 errors in HTML and no chance to validate the CSS because first the html-errors must be fixed.

you are for sure a better photographer than a webdesigner ;=(

you must clean the code first before we can start to find the reason for the error / conflict with the ping-addon..

some tips:
How can I validate a template? (http://wiki.pixelpost.org/index.php?title=How_can_I_validate_a_template%3F)

I read about the "webdeveloper extensions" in the forum sometimes. What are they? (http://wiki.pixelpost.org/index.php?title=I_read_about_the_%22webdeveloper_e xtensions%22_in_the_forum_sometimes._What_are_they %3F)

Hey Connie,

thanks for your reply and your efforts in solving this issue. I understand that my xhtml and css do not validate. that is pretty ok with me and shouldn't have any effect on the problem posted initially. to prove that, i tried to use a different template. the problem persisted.

can you still help me? any more ideas? thanks a lot in advance and greetings from berlin!

Hey Connie,

solved the problem: it is an uppercase/lowercase issue within the admin_ping.php and the corresponding file. i've been turning both, the filename in line 50 of the php file and the inc file to lowercase, works fine now.

thanks for your efforts. btw, where do I get the "most important sides to ping"?

thanks!

[Connie]

I never ping ;=( weisses nich...

aber danke für den Hinweis, das ist ja ein blöder Fehler...
schauen wir dass wir das reparieren, falls es noch nicht gefixt ist für die nächste Version
