Upload images failed

lemmy — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 06:08:12 GMT

Hi,I'm trying to upload images into a folder with the Upload-action in share.On my local machine (Windows 7, localhost:8080) it works perfectly fine. On my Linux machine (SuSE 10.3, http://www.myserver.com:8080) the upload files even with deactivated firewall. Propably a config issue…11:51:48,651 E

My best guess is that ImageMagick hasn't been installed or configured correctly. Are there any relevant errors in the log when you start Alfresco?

yep:

Looks like a shortage of memory. See this note on the wiki.

I've installed ImageMagick and added /usr/local/share/swftools/ and /usr/local/share/swftools/swfs to PATH variable. Error remains.

I've found out the starting
/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/common/bin/pdf2swf leads to error
/opt/alfresco-3.4.d/common/bin/.pdf2swf.bin: error while loading shared libraries: /opt/alfresco-3.4.d/common/lib/libstdc++.so.5: file too short
and replaced libstdc++.so.5 with symbolic link to libstdc++.so.5.0.3
Error remains

What exactly is needed of ImageMagick? Can I verify the installation somehow?

Thanks,
Lemmy

I've increase memory to 4 GB. Now upload works fine.

Good. There does seem to be an issue with the way Java forks processes under *nix that is pointed out in that wiki page I referenced in my earlier post. There doesn't seem to be a workaround to it other than increasing the available memory.
