Glitch while using "manage attachments" ...

I have used the "manage attachments" option a few times with no problems but yesterday it went really weird:

1. start a post in a specific thread
2. go to "manage attchments"
3. upload one photo from my computer: no problem. The image is posted in the "post".
4. upload more than one photo from my computer: I get a message "Diagnose connection problems", as if I suddenly loose internet connection, but I am still definitely online and browsing the forum no problem.

Is there a reason why this would suddenly happen?

Thanks.

JP

This happened again tonight.
Is there a solution which might be possible?

You're probably uploading more than 40M at once, which is our upload limit.

All of my uploaded pictures were within 500k !!
I never tried more than two at a time ... 1000K ... 1MB ??

It could be a problem with your computer then, as I'm not seeing any anomalies in the logs.

OK, I will have to ask the computer "geek" in my town; he nay have an idea.
In the meantime, do you have any idea at all about where to look into first?

Thanks.

I would start by trying a different browser and seeing if you get the same issue there.

Good idea .... Thanks.

BTW, it just did it again a few minutes ago while I was uploading a very small image file.
I repeated the procedure and it worked the second time: exactly as it did before, except only one file this time.

Talk later.

The same thing is happening to me... and when I try the upload again, the photo is rejected because the system thinks I have already uploaded it, even though I haven't!

I even tried loading the same photo after changing the file name, and all that achieves is to have the NEW file name flagged as 'photo already loaded'!

Any ideas?

What's the filename of the photo that got rejected? Also, please zip it up and attach it in this thread.

This is the thread where that file is already attached:

https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/wanted-items/227075-wanted-super-multi-co...s-adapter.html

To include it in a different post, click on the icon (quick reply) or [insert album photos] link below the smilies (full editor). There is no need to re-upload it, and the system will in fact prevent you from doing this.

Oh an I almost forgot to mention, if you go to my activity > my attachments in the upper-right corner of the page, you'll see a page that lists all of your attached files.
