Hello,

have somebody problems with enhancedbinaryfile?
I use it in a form information collection, the file is uploaded ok and I receive a mail with the link of the file.

The problem is that when more forms are summited, I lost the links of the files uploaded, I think they are deleted and renamed with the new ones.

When I click the link in the admin area, in the information collection, I get no file, the link is active, but no image.

Somebody knows where can be the problem?

Thank you in advance.

Check your <VarDir>/storage/<DownloadPath> directory to see if those files are there - they should be a hash and therefore unique even if it's the same file/same name. I have a test directory with multiple versions of the same file named a different hash.

<VarDir> is under site.ini [FileSetting]

<DownloadPath> is in the extension module.ini

This is assuming that you have the latest version (1.1) of the extension and not the version for eZPublish 3.x. If you have the 3.x version then... sorry... I haven't looked at it in years and the extension has been extensively rewritten since then.

The other thing that may be going on is if you have MaxFiles then anything more than MaxFiles will be deleted - if you have a busy site and that number is set low this may occur before you have a chance to look at it. Read the readme.txt and the comments in module.ini for more information.

Thank you for your fast response Steven.

The version I got is the release 3 of enhancedbinaryfile. I'm running under ezPublish 4.2.
I checked all the things you have told but I didn't find the solution.

<VarDir> under site.ini [FileSetting] it's ok and <DownloadPath> is ok too. In fact, the files are stored ok. The problem is that the files are replaced by others (the new ones). But EUREKA!, i think i found the problem, I saw that there are duplicates of image with diferent hash and, VOILÀ!... I counted the number of files and there are 25 files!!! Looking the module.ini you told me, I saw:

[RemoveFiles]MaxFiles=25

Now I'm understanding which is the problem!!! I'm an idiot!!! Maybe some user have sent the form twice and the files had been uploaded twice too, but until 25. The older ones have been deleted!!!!!

I'm gonna change this number and I think that this will solve the problem. It is logical, when the number of files reaches 25, older ones are removed... I'm really stupid... buff...

Thank you very much for your help Steven.

See you soon online!

Solved,
the error was mine, in module.ini of the extension:

[RemoveFiles]MaxFiles=25

I've changed the number for a bigger one and all its ok, all the files are where it must be, any file removed or deleted.
