Scripts won't touch this picture

Pixelpost will not automatically create thumbnails, resize or keep a fullsize image for this picture. I manually created a thumbnail for it. Pixelpost doesn't seem to have a problem with other pictures though, just this one. Is it just too big? I haven't uploaded a whole bunch of pictures but this one has given me the most trouble. If it helps it's 10.1mp that was last saved with Photoshop CS3.

My last post had something to do with this, I just didn't know it was this picture. The post was just deleted without a trace or response. If someone deletes this post, please at least let me know you're deleting it and possibly why. Thanks.

What are you using to resize your images? Photoshop or the old auto_resize addon for pixelpost v1.5??

I actually spent all night tearing that addon apart to get it working smoothly with pixelpost v1.6.

If you wish to beta test this for me then let me know and i'll get you a version ASAP.

That is a huge picture. My guess the thumbnail creation either timed out or got stuck on memory problems. My suggestion is to resize prior to uploading or use the addon by dwilkinsjr.

I just tested my version of the admin_auto_resize addon and it worked like a charm.

It certainly took a few seconds but it went through.

Like I said before, if you are using the old auto resize addon. get rid of it and try this one out for me.

Didn't work. It also is not making a thumbnail either. Maybe I just have to resize the picture BEFORE I upload it, though I shouldn't have to. :-(

An addon that would let me re-upload the fullsize_image.jpg would be a helpful work around.

[Dkozikowski]

It's probably your host then. They probably have filesize and timeout restrictions.

[Panther37]

Do you have a thread for Admin Auto Resize v2.0? I just used it twice. One worked fine and one the resize is BLACK, no thumbnail but the fullsize worked.
http://matt.codders.org/pics/index.php?showimage=14 <-- The original WAS 1800x1200, I just used FTP to manually upload the 10.1mp original
http://matt.codders.org/pics/index.php?showimage=15 <-- Started off 1800x1200
I'll be fixing the black picture in 24 hours. I'll let you know if I have any more issues.

[Dkozikowski]

I dont have a thread yet. Please send me a link to a fullsized picture of the one that came out black.

[Panther37]

To the left of "Comments" there is a link called "Original File." I'll save you time though:

Nevermind, I got it.

[Dkozikowski]

Try uploading it again for me.

I uploaded it twice with no problems at all.

It's possible your server had some issues while uploading.

If you want, create a file called info.php and place the following inside:


<?php
phpinfo();
?>


Save and upload to your website.

Goto this file and look for post_max_size

Let me know what this says.

Also find max_execution_time and let me know what that says as well.

Once you have done this, remove this file as it shows sensitive data about your website

[Panther37]

post_max_size: 8M
max_execution_time: 50000
It's black again. Maybe it's just because it's in the progressive format and the others aren't.

[Dkozikowski]

Thats odd. The fullsize_ image uploaded perfect for me twice.

Does the upload process go quick or does it lag?

download the fullsize_ image and use that to upload

It's possible that progressive scan could be a problem. I have not tested any images with this enabled.
I'll do some more testing tonight and tomorrow.

Oh, and those parameters look good.
Better than mine actually.

It was quick, still black.

The ver 1.5 resize did the same thing, but it made a thumbnail too. 2.0 doesn't get a thumbnail. The file is only 333k, progressive

http://matt.codders.org/pics/index.php?showimage=19
ver 1.5 is NOT progressive and works fine.

http://matt.codders.org/pics/index.php?showimage=20
ver 2.0 is NOT progressive and works fine.

I guess I just won't use progressive encoding anymore.

[Dkozikowski]

Interesting.

I'll look into it within the next couple days.

Thanks for your help with testing.

[Panther37]

What ever the issue is, 1.5 had an issue with it too. Is it maybe just my version of GD-lib bundled (2.0.28 compatible) with JPEG support has something funky with it? I'll post more issues here if I have them.

[Dkozikowski]

Yes, v1.5 would have the same issue as v2.0 uses the same JPEG library v1.5 did.

Your GD library is fine. I'm running the same one. Which is funny because I can not for the life of me reproduce your problem.

I even threw a bunch of files saved with a progressive scan and each upload went without a flaw.

IMHO it can be memory limitation which is set to process PHP script. It needs to load image, then process it and save it. When image is 10Mpx it takes a lot of mem and probably needs more then limiting value gives.

Some time ago there was similar issue with thumbnails transformations (resizing is similar stuff).
