I also get this error..
Config param max_filesize is bigger than php server setting: post_max_size = 8388608, upload_max_filesize = 1073741824
Your max_filesize parameter must be lower than php.ini post_max_size and upload_max_filesize settings. In this case max_filesize can have max value of 8388608 bytes.
I love your program – cheers, fixed
The upload problem is NOT the web server…
I just tried another script and it uploads a larger (15mb) file with no errors.
Help me please.
FileGator script is using POST upload method to upload files. See faq how to increase limits.
already sussed it out – I needed to create a “pnp.ini” file and upload to the root
HI again
Where do I edit to change it – so that when a DOCX file is opened – it does the same as when a DOC file gets opened.
Cheers, Hugh
You can only edit plain text files, not word documents, images etc
NO – the new DOCX files open when you click on them, I want to edit it so that they only download – which script file do I need to edit
Any way I can force download files? When sending a link to a movie file, for example, the movies starts to play in the browser, instead of being downloaded. Of course I can always zip the files, but I’d prefer avoiding that additional step if possible.
Cheers, Alex
Try to put this in your .htaccess file
Please reply if this works, thanks!
Like a charm – thanks!
Hi,
Is there signup process available? if yes, please give a solution..
also will you update for mobile version?
Thanks!
Hi,
You can try this basic signup form http://file-gator.com/gator/register.zip. Put register.php inside config folder.
I will add mobile version to the wish list.
Thanks!
is there a solution or a module to pay a subscription fee like most file hosting scripts?
No, sorry. However there is a sample signup form which updates users data, php developer could easily create additional forms for payment, reset password or something else based on this example.
Hello alcabg,
I’ve just installed filegator on my lamp server but could not seem to be able to change admin password or add user. Whenever I’d change admin password or add new user no error message is shown but when I’d log out and log in with the new credentials the following message appears: “Wrong username or password”. What I’m missing here?
Best regards
pk
Hi,
This is a permissions problem, your web server cannot write to /config/config.json file and therefore cannot save users data. Change permissions or file ownership and try again.
Great!!! That works!
I think it its a bug in .htaccess file in /repository dir
becouse u have:
Order Allow,Deny Deny from all
And i cant download any files… so i change it to deny dangerous scripts:
Order Allow,Deny Deny from all
Not sure what’s wrong here, can you give me more details on this?
With original .htaccess – Order Allow,Deny Deny from all i cant download directly or by smtp any files becouse i’m getting the 403 error. If i change it to: Order Allow,Deny Deny from all – it works properly, i can directly download allowed extensions.
I have problem with the script. I’m using two servers. On first all work fine, but I can’t upload files bigger than 15MB on the second server.
There is part of my php.ini
post_max_size = 128M memory_limit = 128M max_execution_time = 3600 upload_max_filesize = 120M max_input_time = 3600
File size in index.php (filegator) ‘max_filesize’ => 125829120
What should I done to upload bigger files?
If you set filegotor’s max_filesize to 999999999 on second server what message is thrown?
Config param max_filesize is bigger than php server setting: post_max_size = 134217728, upload_max_filesize = 125829120
Well, everything looks fine, the server has accepted your limits and this should work. I really have no idea what’s wrong with your server since FileGator works on your first server and on hundreds of other servers. You should check how exactly those two servers are different. Maybe this is some kind of network-related problem, maybe filesystem or apache itself has some strange config parameter set. If I find some solution or workaround I will let you know.
It’s loading loading, and progress bar disappear on the end of the upload. I check few times everyting, I have no idea…
It’s the same with any browser? You have the latest FileGator version?
I found solution! Server has a few PHP support modes. I changed from FastCGI to CGI and now scrtipt works fine
Great! Thanks for letting me know.
If i upload new files trough FTP will FILEGATOR update itself with this new files and folders?.
Thanks in advance!.
yes, new files and folders will be visible in filegator
Hi, congrats for this script, it is very helpful!
I would like to connect the script with another server to have an online ftp of this one. i use a simple ssh connection (then sftp) :
$connection = ssh2_connect($ftp_server, $ftp_port); ssh2_auth_password($connection, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass); $sftp = ssh2_sftp($connection);
and i get my home directory :
$dir = “ssh2.sftp://$sftp/way/to/the/dir”;
how can I put this directory as home in filegator?
Thanks for help!
Hi,
This feature is not directly supported in FileGator.
However, you can still achieve this with a little help of Linux and CurlFtpFS. You must mount your FTP filesystem and then use this mounting point as user’s repository. You can find more about mounting FTP filesystem here.
I tried this and it worked for me!
Big fan of FileGator.. Its so quick and so simple.. However…. I’m getting more users and they know that I know what their password is. Can users change their own password? Can users Self register?
Great script though. Love it
Del
Hi Del,
In latest FileGator version 2.4 users can change their own passwords by clicking on username link.
You can also look at beta features section on the front page, you can find a simple register form there. This can be a good starting point for building your own custom register form.
Best,
alcalbg…
Brilliant… thanks very much for the prompt reply… It works well. The script does all I need and other to do, simple yet useful.
I put the register.php script into the config folder, refreshed but the main screen didnt show the register function. Do I need to do something to the script to make it appear and work?
Thanks again Del
You have to call this script directly http://example.com/filegator/config/register.php
Yep.. got it thanks…
I’ll have to play around with this. I can create user repositories as admin but the register script doesn’t create the users directory. I see in the script that it should. The perms on my repositories folder is 777 the users inside are 755.
That’ll give me something to do..
Thanks
Del
Hi there…
Yes I got the user created and their directory created. I had to set $default_repository_path. However whilst they can log on they can’t do anything. The default permissions are: $default_permissions = ‘r’; If I change this to ‘u’ or ‘w’ the user can’t login. How can I give users ‘r, u, w’ permissions as default? I’ve tried and failed
The repository folder is 777 the users created via the admin all get 755, self registered also get 755 as set in mkdir($homedir, 0755, true);
See I’ve been looking through the script..
Also when the user self registers the “Thank You” does not appear. The fields go blank on the registration page but they can log on
Thanks
Del
Simple as always:
Not sure about “Thank You”... will look at this again tomorrow,
Can the logo/branding be changed? The alligator and green is cute, but not really in line with the image I want to portray to clients.
Yes, you will receive full source code and you can change the logo/style. You can do this by editing css stylesheet or you can hire someone do this for you.
Thanks. Purchased and so far it’s getting up to speed. No offense, but how can I change the window header so it doesn’t say “filegator”, and eliminate the FileGator version link at the top? Trying to make as clean an interface as possible. Also, I noticed when using “Add Files…”, the .mp4 I upload does not play back when clicked, and generates a 403 error. If I use Fetch to upload directly to the server, it works. Seems like the permissions are being set differently. Any ideas?
All view files (front-end design) are located under filegator/include/views/. So for header text – edit header.php at line 6 and for version link edit main.php at line 9.
Not sure what’s the problem with your mp4 files, I just tried with sample mp4 file and everything looks fine on firefox, chrome and IE. Can you send me an email with link to your site so I can see this error?
Thanks very much for your help. I think things are ironed out now. I do have one final request (sorry for nitpicking). Is there a way to make the actual font size for the download link that appears in the window – smaller (i.e., make “http://www….” a few point sizes smaller)?
Having a bit of trouble moving things around. It just says “Please wait…”
Your server is probably missing PHP libxml extension and filegator cannot generate tree view. You either install missing extension or disable simple_copy_move option (set to false inside index.php) and use cut/copy/paste without folder structure tree. See this FAQ. Let me know if this doesn’t help.
Hello,
Just installed the product and it works fine.
However, when sorting the names it’s sorted descending instead of ascending. how can this bechanged?
You can toggle ascending / descending order by clicking on the sort button (the button itself, not an arrow with drop-down menu). It should sort by name and ascending by default.
Correct, but this does not work with map names
Can you give me an example? Three file names, full names with file extension included. Thanks.
Maybe you are referring to the directory names? If so try adding this line of code:
into /include/file-gator.php file right after this line of code:
It should be there around line 1119
Yes, map or directory names. It works now, except the toggle.
For toggle to work on directories use this code:
But this will not look good when sorting by date or size
Do I have to place this instead of the previous one or not? Where should it be stored?
Yes, instead of previous code
Thanks. I’ve rated 5 stars. One fiinal question: What is mentioned by SENDING LINKS TO EMAIL, ADMIN INTERFACE INCLUDED and hoe does this work? I cannot find anything within the proram. I probably do not kwow where to look.
