Well I haven't been able to extract any sort of archived files. Everytime I do, no matter what
size they are, I seem to get a fairly big error. I forgot to copy the error, so I don't have
the exact writing of it. But, it has happened with .zip files and .rar files. ( I tried .rar just
to see if it would give the same error.) Has anybody had the same problem? I mean I could easily
just use an FTP and import file by file, but uploading by archiving the files is easier....

As I said, I had to move my web site away from Trap17 temporarily because I had ran out of disk
space. Now, when my upgrade is finalised, I would like to ask for a little assistance. The provider
I will be moving my site from, back to Trap17 also uses Cpanel, and the admin let me know to do a
backup and that backup could be simply transferred via FTP to my new provider. The backup includes
all my files and MySQL data, in other words, the whole web site. It is in a .tar.gz format. How do I
get all this across? Do I 'unzip' the file and then transfer them bit by bi...

Hi! I've been hosted in trap17 for almost 4 months now. In the beginning, I tried to setup a
WebDisk to directly transfer files from my computer to my hosting account, but I didn't manage
to make it work. It might have been from my Vista's weird firewall settings, or my ISP settings,
I have no idea. Anyway, I used the File Manager since, as I don't have a lot of files on my
site. Needless to say, it is really annoying when I do just some little changes and I have to go
again through CPanel, FileManager, UploadFile... pffff So my question to you... How...

Hey im trying to add a file to my My SQL Database, Any idea how I can do this? Any help would be

When I try to upload an image to Cutenews via the program's "insert image" option, I get the
following error message: CODE Couldn't copy image to server Check if file_uploads is
allowed in the php.ini file of your server In the past, I've always been able to upload
images to Cutenews. I assume that file uploads are allowed in the php.ini server, since they always
were before. What's going on here and how do I fix it?...

Well, my partners on my forum has decided to move our site to a newer host. A paid one to be exact.
And we did that already. Now all we need to do is move our forum over to the new host. We want to
do this without losing all of our posts and other data. I know it has something to do with the MySQL
files but I don't really understand it. Some help would be appreciated. We are running Invision
Power Board 1.3.1 final Also, we're thinking about upgrading our board to a newer version of
IPB because we heard that its better in more ways than one. But then again, it...

Other than my aborted attempt at setting up a site on my previous free web host, this will be the
first time that I have set up a dynamic website with an SQL back end. I came from the Internet
stone-age of static sites with lots of graphics and text, but little or no interactivity. I would
really appreciate some advice on how best to do this. I have selected the free Content Management
System called Lanius CMS , which is made by the makers of the more well-known package called Drake
CMS. Also, at the advice of many of the denizens of the Trap17 forums, I have downloade...

Hello! When I am trying to upload a component in joomla (I upgraded from mambo, I had the same
problem on mambo), it dont work, i get this error message: ! Upload component - Failed" "File

How can I fix it?...

I had this setting done before, but I replaced the file and need to know how to do it again. That
is, increasing the max upload limit. It currently is set to 2mb(on my forum for uploading), and I
would like to increase it. I think that the limit is software related and not host related. How
would I go about setting up a limit greater than 2mb? Thanks in advance....

I can't delete a little file using file manager in Cpanel. I'm trying to delete a .png
image, actually, I'm trying to replace it. The response comes back as a success, but when I
reload my site it's still there. Then I go back to the file manager and go up a level, then back
and WOOP! There it is! I'm beyond frustrated here. What is going on?...

My website is split into two directories: "site", which is my main site's content, and "forum",
which explains itself. The "site" directory is mostly filled with Joomla! files due to my website
using the Joomla! CMS. Previously, I was able to upload templates and extensions to Joomla! without
fail. However, since today whenever I've done either of these I just get "failed" messages.
Unable to source it to a problem with Joomla, I tried to access the directories using FTP. I was
able to access and rename all my directories using FTP, but whenever I tried to dele...

Would it be allowed to have an upload script to transfer text files (homework) from laptop to
desktop? Because my printer is set up from my desktop, and most of my homework is done on my laptop.
So would this be allowed? Thanks....

Before anyone points it out, I searched this forum for similar topics and couldn't find any, I
checked the FAQ's and couldn't find any one of them that addresses my problem: I just
installed joomla in a sub directory (public_html/Joomla) and I wanted to change some stuff so I went
into my FTP program and connected to my account, I checked, doubled checked and triple checked all
the public html/FTP/WWW folders and I couldn't find the joomla installation, the site come up

I downloaded the zip version of the SMF, from www.simplemachines.org I am using SmartFTP, to upload
the files. I created a folder, named Forum, and uploaded all the SMF files there. On the
simplemachines site, it tells me to type my site url followed by /forum/install.php, or whatever the
directory I installed it on is called. I tried that, and I come up with this on the page. Not

I made a bo-bo lol I've accidentally deleted those pre-set files that are in the file manager
when you first register, you know those _vti thingy magiggers, well i accidentally deleted them, so

Suddenly all my file permission aren't writable in the Joomla directory. Furthermore, when I go
to delete old files or overwrite them, I get a varity of errors both in my FTP programs and using
the Cpanel flie manager. When I checked the needed directories file permission they read 777
(which is needed for installing components) yet when I got to access them they are unwritable. This
has just happened in the last day or so and the not being able to delete files mannual in the past
week. I get this error on changing file permissions: QUOTE FTP Error: Could ...

QUOTE Obtaining SMF You can download the latest beta from the download page on the
official Simple Machines website. There are a number of packages available, as this guide covers
fresh installs, you should download one of the "install" packages as these contain all the files
needed to get up and running. We suggest you download the zip option as this is most common and
therefore you are more likely to have the tools required to unzip it already installed on your
computer. Unzip the package, ensuring you keep the directory structure, if you are using Windows ...

(http://hogwartsmagic.net/map/ezmap.php) and it shows those folders, and to make it less cluttered
we want to get rid of them, or make them invisible to the public.. is this possible? Topic closed

I have been using Frontpage 2003 to make a website, it is basically complete but I need to know how
to upload the files. I have been playing around with the file manager and it seems like I have the
site there but in a very inefficient manner. Is there any way I can just use Frontpage to upload
the files and type in my password and username in Frontpage? If so, can you lead me to a thread that
explains it or tell me? If not, is there an easier way to upload files into the File Manager
other than picking them one-by-one? Thank you very much for your time.... I f...

How do I unzip TAR files on the server? Is there a specific program that does this? I don't want
to upload the little "module" packages one by one to the server because that will consume more
bandwidth. If there is a program that does this and it is freeware, please tell me where to get it
and what it generally does. I use ZipGenius 6 to open most of my compressed files, including TAR
files. If there is a better way to do this, tell me how to. Thanks...
