Flash attachment error

When I upload a flash that's like 3 mb big, I can upload it and post the topic. But then when I try to view the topic, I get the error "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". Other users can't view the topic as well. I have to delete the file from the server to access the topic and delete the post. Is there a way I can view big flash files without getting the "cannot display" error? Please help me :cry:

Link?

To tell you the truth this sounds like it might be a server configuration issue. Page is probably trying to load but times out before it's displayed (due to the large filesize).

Even if it's over 1 mb it won't display it :( But now it doesn't give the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage error" but displays the header, just doesn't show the topic section. The link is here: http://www.cityarel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30

You can see that it's working with small files here: http://www.cityarel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12

Try this...though I'm unsure it'll help you but anything you can try would be good at this point:

Code: Select all

# 
#-----[ OPEN ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
templates/subSilver/viewtopic_attach_body.tpl

# 
#-----[ FIND ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0

# 
#-----[ REPLACE WITH ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0

# 
#-----[ FIND ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"

# 
#-----[ IN-LINE, FIND ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"

# 
#-----[ AFTER, ADD ]--------------------------------------------- 
# 
menu="false
Hope that helps...

Okay trying it again~

Interesting flash :lol:

If you're not storing your files on an external host then DON'T use the FTP setting. Turn that off and try again to see if that fixes your issue. That would be a bug that won't get fixed though if it does fix it :?

I made it normal, but still doesn't work! Can you tell me your properties for upload folder (like 666, 777)? I'm using 777 right now.
