Trouble With Joomla 1.0.10

[webgyrl]

Hello,

 

I am using Joomla! 1.0.10 installed via Fantastico on Sever 366.

 

I am wondering if someone can help me. I am trying to upload .mp3 & .m4a (Mpeg-4) files to the Media Manager in an Audio folder (permissions are set to 777 for folders). The Audio folder is in the Images folder (images/audio)

 

I have gone into administrator/components/com_media/admin.media.php and changed the allowed file types:

>acl_check( 'administration', 'edit', 'users', $my->usertype, 'components', 'all' )
	| $acl->acl_check( 'administration', 'edit', 'users', $my->usertype, 'components', 'com_media' ))) {
mosRedirect( 'index2.php', _NOT_AUTH );
}

require_once( $mainframe->getPath( 'admin_html' ) );

/**
* Makes file name safe to use
* Temporary function for 1.0.x only
* @param string The name of the file (not full path)
* @return string The sanitised string
*/
function makeSafe( $file ) {
return str_replace( '..', '', urldecode( $file ) );
}

$cid = mosGetParam( $_POST, 'cid', array(0) );
if (!is_array( $cid )) {
$cid = array(0);
}

$listdir = makeSafe( mosGetParam( $_REQUEST, 'listdir', '' ) );
$dirPath = makeSafe( mosGetParam( $_POST, 'dirPath', '' ) );

if (is_int(strpos ($listdir, "..")) && $listdir != '') {
mosRedirect( "index2.php?option=com_media&listdir=".$_POST['dirPath'], "NO HACKING PLEASE" );
}

define( 'COM_MEDIA_BASE', $mosConfig_absolute_path . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'images' );
define( 'COM_MEDIA_BASEURL', $mosConfig_live_site . '/images' );

switch ($task) {

case 'upload':
	upload();
	showMedia( $dirPath );
	break;

case 'newdir':
	if (ini_get('safe_mode')=='On') {
		mosRedirect( "index2.php?option=com_media&listdir=".$_POST['dirPath'], "Directory creation not allowed while running in SAFE MODE as this can cause problems." );
	} else {
		create_folder( $dirPath );
	}
	showMedia( $dirPath );
	break;

case 'delete':
	delete_file( $listdir );
	showMedia( $listdir );
	break;

case 'deletefolder':
	delete_folder( $listdir );
	showMedia( $listdir );
	break;

case 'list':
	listImages( $listdir );
	break;

case 'cancel':
	mosRedirect( 'index2.php' );
	break;

default:
	showMedia( $listdir );
	break;
}

/**
* Deletes a file
* @param string The relative folder path to the file
*/
function delete_file( $listdir ) {
$delFile = makeSafe( mosGetParam( $_REQUEST, 'delFile', '' ) );
$fullPath = COM_MEDIA_BASE . $listdir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . stripslashes( $delFile );

if (file_exists( $fullPath )) {
	unlink( $fullPath );
}
}

function create_folder($dirPath) {
$folder_name = mosGetParam( $_POST, 'foldername', '' );

if(strlen($folder_name) >0) {
	if (eregi("[^0-9a-zA-Z_]", $folder_name)) {
		mosRedirect( "index2.php?option=com_media&listdir=".$_POST['dirPath'], "Directory name must only contain alphanumeric characters and no spaces please." );
	}
	$folder = COM_MEDIA_BASE . $dirPath . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $folder_name;
	if(!is_dir( $folder ) && !is_file( $folder )) {
		mosMakePath( $folder );
		$fp = fopen( $folder . "/index.html", "w" );
		fwrite( $fp, "\n\n\n" );
		fclose( $fp );
		mosChmod( $folder."/index.html" );
		$refresh_dirs = true;
	}
}
}

function delete_folder($listdir) {
$delFolder = mosGetParam( $_REQUEST, 'delFolder', '' );

$del_html 	= COM_MEDIA_BASE . $listdir . $delFolder . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'index.html';
$del_folder = COM_MEDIA_BASE . $listdir . $delFolder;

$entry_count = 0;
$dir = opendir( $del_folder );
while ($entry = readdir( $dir )) {
	if( $entry != "." & $entry != ".." & strtolower($entry) != "index.html" )
	$entry_count++;
}
closedir( $dir );

if ($entry_count < 1) {
	@unlink( $del_html );
	rmdir( $del_folder );
} else {
	echo 'Unable to delete: not empty!';
}
}

function upload() {
if (isset($_FILES['upload']) && is_array($_FILES['upload']) && isset($_POST['dirPath'])) {
	$dirPathPost 	= $_POST['dirPath'];
	$file 			= $_FILES['upload'];
	
	if (strlen($dirPathPost) > 0) {
		if (substr($dirPathPost,0,1) == '/') {
			$IMG_ROOT .= $dirPathPost;
		} else {
			$IMG_ROOT = $dirPathPost;
		}
	}

	if (strrpos( $IMG_ROOT, '/' ) != strlen( $IMG_ROOT )-1) {
		$IMG_ROOT .= '/';
	}

	do_upload( $file, COM_MEDIA_BASE . $dirPathPost . '/' );
}
}

function do_upload($file, $dest_dir) {
global $clearUploads;

if (file_exists($dest_dir.$file['name'])) {
	mosRedirect( "index2.php?option=com_media&listdir=".$_POST['dirPath'], "Upload FAILED.File allready exists" );
}

$format = substr( $file['name'], -3 );

$allowable = array (
	'bmp',
	'csv',
	'doc',
	'epg',
	'gif',
	'ico',
	'jpg',
	'odg',
	'odp',
	'ods',
	'odt',
	'pdf',
	'png',
	'ppt',
	'swf',
	'txt',
	'xcf',
	'xls',
			'mp3',
			'm3u',
	'html',
	'htm',
	'wma',
	'wmv',
	'mov',
	'mpeg',
	'm4a',
	'm4p',
	'mp4',
	'm4v',
	'm4e',
	'wav',
);

I also went into the JCE Plugn Admin, selected "File Manager" and allowed more file types:

Allowed Extensions: html,htm,doc,xls,txt,gif,jpeg,jpg,png,pdf,zip,swf,rar,tar,gz,mov,wmv,wav,mp3,m3u,mpeg

m4a,m4p,mp4,m4v,m4e

Viewable Files: html,htm,doc,xls,txt,gif,jpeg,jpg,png,pdf,zip,swf,rar,tar,gz,mov,wmv,wav,mp3,m3u,mpeg

m4a,m4p,mp4,m4v,m4e

 

 

I saved the changes to the php file and JCE File Manager plugin, logged out, cleared cookies and cache and tried to upload the file and it says "Upload Failed".

 

Can someone tell me if I missed a step. If so, what step and how can I make it so that m4a files are allowed to be uploaded.

 

Thank you for your help!

Looks like there is a 2MB max to upload files thru PHP!

[TCH-Thomas]

Try to include this in your .htaccess...

 

>php_value upload_max_filesize 10M

Thomas! Michelle (the girl I am working with on this site) just emailed me and told me she tried something similar:

 

>php_value memory_limit 32M
php_value upload_max_filesize 8M
php_value max_execution_time  800

 

That worked like a charm.

 

Thanks!

[TCH-Thomas]

Glad to hear it works.

 

I just took a chance on that one after some searching.

Nice going Thomas! Glad you found the answer webgyrl
