Dear CMS Builder Team,

I've been working with the tool for some time now and I've noticed that version 2.12 is disallowing the upload of .SWF file types. It returns the following error: File 'filename.swf' isn't a valid 'swf' file.

It does even when you specify swf in the File extensions allowed: field in the input validation.

Please assist as I have a great need to continue uploading swf file types via this method.

I've attached a copy of the screens in question. Also, I've tested this on more than one installations of the product with the same version.

Thanks in advance.

Ian

Hi Ian,

I was able to successfully upload a swf file using a test installation of CMS Builder 2.12.

Can you try uploading a different swf file to test?

Send in a 2nd Level Support Request so I can take a look:

Reference this forum post URL in the ticket.

Thanks!

You need to separate the file extensions with COMMAS not DOTS. eg: jpg,swf,png

Thanks rconring, but I used commas, the JPEG may look like dots but they are commas.

Yes, they are dots in the jpeg ... are there any spaces? I almost went nuts trying to find the problem when that happened to me ... turns out I had a space in front of the extension.

Hi,

If there are no spaces and you are using commas top separate the allowed files types, send in a support request and I would be happy to look into it.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have the same problem.

But, I also obtain an error : Undefined index: channels in upload_functions.php on line 201

Is there a solution?

Thanks!

Hi Djulia,

What version of the CMS are you using? Can you let me know at what point the error appears?

Thanks,

Hi Jason,

It is with version 2.17.

The problem occurs when a file .SWF is uploaded.

An idea?

Thanks!

Hi Djulia,

Is it always the same swf file? Can other files be uploaded correctly?

If you could send in a [url http://www.interactivetools.com/support]2nd Level Support[/url] Request and let us know which section the error occurs in, we can take a look. If you could also provide the swf file you are trying to upload, that would help as well.

Thanks
