#3763 image upload size was created by xlmarine
Hi there,

I get the following error while uploading an image in cb

The file exceeds the maximum size of 8000 kilobytes .

8000kbytes is what I set to that specific cb_image field I also set system max size to 8000.

My image is only 200 kbytes.

A week ago I had no problems with this , I thinkit happned after upgrading CB.
Could sombody help me please.

Regards,
Gert van de Hoef

Please give exact version numbers and exact method to replicate.
I tried on my CB 1.9/J25 site and it appears to be working ok.

My joomla version is 2.5.7 and CB version is 1.9 .

a week ago it worked fine..after that:
-- I upgrade my CB to 1.9
--install cb conditions plugin
--install kunena forum

I'm wondering that the error gives the right maxupload size...

if I set CB_imagefield to max 4000kb the message says:
"the file exceeds the maximum size of 4000 kilobytes"

if I set to 8000 the mesaage is:
"the file exceeds the maximum size of 8000 kilobytes"

So the system know wich amount is the max but the problem is .....the immage is just 200kb...I'm sure about that.

where is this handled..in Joomla or CB?


Hope you can help me now

So are you talking about the avatar image or an image field?
Does the same image upload work on the avatar field?

I cannot replicate on my j257 / cb 1.9 test site.

Ok - was able to replicate using the profile update menu and not the avatar menu.

We are investigating how to address.

Issue has been quickly fixed before public announcement for final CB 1.9 release. Please re-download CB 1.9.
