Resource uploading broken

[humdinger]

It's not possible to add a new image or replace an existing image with a newer one any more. After providing the path for source and translation version, and selecting the picture, pressing the upload button sends the browser's progress bar off, but nothing really happens.

I actually cannot reproduce this problem. Humdinger, can you reproduce?

[humdinger]

Hmm... you're right... At least with BeZilla it works, it doesn't with Web+ as it used to. I guess I'll change the component for this ticket to "Web+". Still, if deejam finds anything that might trip up Web+, I hope he can fix it. Our native browser should be able to deal with our translation site. I don't like BeZilla hat much anymore.

Good to know! I'll reassign this ticket to Ryan.

I tested to replace an existing image with WebPositive in hrev43152 and it works.

humdinger: Can you verify again with a build that is not affected by #8101?

If that isn't the cause, I'll create a patch that sets action="" to a valid one. An empty value usually works, but WebPositive might not be that tolerant. In any case, I can't reproduce the error, so it's hard for me to debug.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="">
<dl class="fieldset">
<dt><span>Upload new resource</span></dt>
<dd>
<label for="new_res">Upload file:</label> <input type="file" name="new_res" id="new_res" /><br/>
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</dd>
</dl>
</form>

I'm taking this back from Ryan and change the component back to User Documentation Translator until we are sure what's causing this.

I wondered if this was due to #8101 myself, but this ticket was logged several days before the commit which caused that bug happened.

Replying to anevilyak:

Yes I saw that. But I can't come up with anything else that can cause the problem.

Anyway, the empty form is fixed and verified to work in WebPositive in hrev43152. I changed both the form used to upload and re-upload resources.

I'll ask Niels to upload the changes.

[deejam]

Changes uploaded by Niels. Everything works as expected for me (WebPositive, hrev43152). Humdinger, please test.

I updated to hrev43238 and uploading now works for me with Web+, too. Either it's the newer revision or your "action" magick was successful! Thanks very much in any case!
