Attachment Mod 2.0.1 by Frank H (Page 20 of 21)

It happens with both IE 6 and 7.
It's an IE MsgBox.
It's like IE doesn't understand the header with the "filename" command.
When IE asks me to "Open" or "Save" the file (recognizing the Content-Disposition header, I think) the name it shows is "Attachment.php?item=5" (where Firefox shows the correct filename "Prova Allegati.txt"). Then, if I choose to open the file (it's a txt file), IE shows the text, but if I try to save it I got the error.

The connection is SSL secured.
The firewall is not a constant in this problem: it happens to me and to other friends of mine in different cities with different networks and different PCs...
With Firefox installed on Ubunto or WinXP, I see immediately that there are no problems: the filename showed is the correct one.

Anyway, the problem IMHHHO seems to be right in the filename header... IE never shows the correct one.

Thanx for reply and... sorry for my poor English. ^_^

Still doesn't work...
I've tried writing

$attach_mime = 'application/download';
if(strlen($attach_mime)!=0)  
                header('Content-Type: ' . $attach_mime );
        else
                header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');

(by-passing the if statement)
and also

header('Content-Type = application/download');
/* if(strlen($attach_mime)!=0)  
                header('Content-Type: ' . $attach_mime );
        else
                header('Content-type: application/octet-stream'); // a default 
*/

but nothing. Now IE doesn't show the Open/Save question dialog, it tries automatically to save the (not existing) file "attachment_php?item=5"...
I think IE understand the download command, but not what file to download...

Can help?

I think it could be something similar...

I have just tried to install this mod but when I run AP_Attachment_Mod.php, I get an error message:

An error was encountered
Error: Unable to count number of attachment files.

Where have I gone wrong?

Only two little problems:

- the post is submitted also if the attached file is not uploaded because not allowed, and no alert message is displayed

- if an attachment is deleted, remains a 0 byte file, also if orphans are deleted and tables are cleaned with the plugin tools

Solved the problem by setting the chmod to 02777.

Any word as to making this work without altering or adding additional code/files in 1.2.16?

Read the section about "Installing the mod on PunBB 1.2.6+", and of course the one above, and make sure to make backups before you start
(I'm running it on a 1.2.16 forum, but it's installed a long time ago, and I've just done the hdiff upgrades to that forum, but I still think it should work)

FYI

I have successfully installed the mod in a 1.2.17 installation.  I followed Frank's directions very carefully for 1.2.6+ installations, but made no changes of my own.  I'll report here if I find any problems, but it looks OK on initial testing.

I have read in this forum other users who are using 1.2.14, but when I try to rund the install_mod.php, I get the message...

You are running a version of PunBB (1.2.14) that this mod does not support. This mod supports PunBB versions: 1.2, 1.2.1, 1.2.3, 1.2.4, 1.2.5

What is my next step?

Thanks MattF... When the message stated that "This mod supports...", I took it to mean the Attachment Mod I was attempting to install, and not the Mod Installer.

Anyway, you got me back on track and everything installed perfectly. This Attachments Mod is great!
