Upload fails with no error

My web host has recently upgraded PHP to version 4.4.7 and since then my file uploads have stopped working.

I have taken the time to upgrade FCK to version 2.4.3 and my uploads still fail without error, in fact I am prompted and told that my uploads have succeeded. I have no problems creating directories.

Following some directions from another post here I have installed Live HTTP Headers and firebug and called the test.html file. It appears as though the right connector is being called:

POST /siteadmin/editor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/php/connector.php?Command=FileUpload&Type=Image&CurrentFolder=/ HTTP/1.1

I have attempted to use the error_log command in my upload.php and this doesn't work for me. I have no offending .htaccess file and I just can't figure out what is going on. Can anyone point me in the right direction please??

Re: Upload fails with no error

It's the second post in the past few days regarding problems with file uploads after upgrading PHP.
Do you have safe mode enabled on your server? (please disable it in such case)

Re: Upload fails with no error

By default when you click on image button and upload image file, it will be uploaded into your userfiles directory, which means that you will not see it in the file browser altohugh it is (probably) uploaded.
This is a known issue, you can change that bevhaviour by setting $Config['UseFileType'] to true (in FCKeditor 2.4) or by setting the right path in FCKeditor 2.5.
Please log in to your FTP account and search for that image file inside your userfiles directory.

Darlene - what problem exactly do you have with smilies?

Re: Upload fails with no error

Ok, the files are not on the server - I have checked this through my FTP client and through a web-based file explorer that my host provides.

I have $Config['UseFileType'] = true ; in both config.php files. $Config['UserFilesPath'] and $Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] are also correctly set.

The permissions are set to 777 and I have created a new userfiles folder as the latest fckeditor now converts the directory names to lowercase.

Re: Upload fails with no error

Yes, FCKeditor 2.4.3 converts it's own directories to lower case.
To change that behaviour you would have to change a couple of source files...
or use FCKeditor 2.5 which has all paths configurable.

If you download FCKeditor 2.5, go to editor\filemanager\connectors and run test.html and uploadtest.html.
Turn on display_errors, set error_reporting to E_ALL and check for any errors there.
