Hi!

I'm having issues with the upload applet of my fresh PB install. In chrome, I get the script error "frowny page" and users can't uplaod files. Any ideas?

Thanks
Joe

First image shows right after page loads, looks Ok. Had to change the hostname in the index.html file...

Second and Third show the two different screens I may get. I'm thinking Droopy isn't being configured correctly, or maybe a folder permission issue?

Thanks
Joe

Hi,
do you access the PirateBox through the IP on the LAN port given by your home-router?
if yes, than that is your issue. The upload box is an iframe, which relies on a correct resolution of the name "pirateBox". As this name isn't known by your homerouter, the browser cant resolve and display the box with the error message.

Is that the situation you encounter?

regards Matthias

Hi Matthias
I am directly connected to my piratebox's wifi, so the problem can't come that way, at least I think so..

did you enter the IP directly?
if yes, then maybe you have a fixed DNS setting on your device?


This is only my signature.

Yeah I was obligated to because the captive portal doesn't work so well.. Like when I just tape a web site's adress it just load a blank page :/
