Phoca Forum

Hi everyone, i've installed in my Joomla the last version of com_phocadownload_v1.3.8.zip, but there was a problem related to the database and so i had to create all the required tables manually as seen below in phpmyadmin.
After that all worked fine, or so i thought... cause while i was trying to upload a file i had a surprise:

browser file button did not worked at all...
That's the printscreen

I followed all the instructions carefully. I don't know what to do. HELP PLZ!!!!!

PS: i've discovered that this problem there isn't for INTERNET EXPLORER but for all the other browser like Firefox and Chrome!!!!

Is this problem solvable? THANKS A LOT!!!!!

I think you need to enable the "flash uploader" on joomla global configuration, and again in phocadownload settings.
Also, I had to downgrade from flash 10 to 9 for it to work.

Hi, yes, the flash upload has some problems in case the flash plugin in PC is 10 or later, this is why the flash upload will be changed to plupload for 1.6

after attempting to download a file -> Metodika IV.1.2..pdf
The file type is not allowed - file cannot be uploaded

After rename "Metodika IV.1.2.pdf" download OK

the problem is probably in the two dots before the extension PDF
test it in the file name is just what the last period?

Joomla 1.6 / phocadownload Version 2.0.0 RC2
I'm not English speaking

Hi, yes, seems like the method to recognize the extensions is confused by such file.

The file should have e.g. such name:

Metodika-IV-1-2.pdf

Spaces, two dots, diacritics, etc. are in fact not correctly names for files as such names can have problems on different operating systems.
