A module that will allow users to download my local files  Bottom

  • hey guys...

    I need a module that will display all my files that I have available for download (locally) on my server... and gives them the ability to upload as well... any suggestions?
  • DownloadsPlus, or UpDownloads
  • thanks for the reply... do you happen to use DownloadsPlus? when I go to access the downloads plus menu from the admin section it returns with access denied. the documentation doesn't seem very newbie friendly as I am kinda new to postnuke. any suggestions? I only ask here because I've sent emails to the author with no reply :( and the site that supports it looks like it has been updated since 2003. but the most recent version was made early this year so... ehe... kinda in a pickle :)
  • I use DownloadsPlus, with no glitches whatsoever. Installed it some time ago, so don't recall the details, but I don't recall anything unusual re installation or setup.
  • Try removing an references to PHP_SELF and replace with SCRIPT_NAME in index.php file
  • thanks for the tip...

    I checked both the index.php file located in the modules/downloads directory ( as thats the module I'm using I-Mod Downloads v 1.8 I believe ) and also the index.php file located in the servers root directory. none of which made reference to this function. I also went into admin.php located in the modules/downloads directory... and here is the piece of code that is locking things up...

    if (!eregi("admin.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
    die ("Access Denied");
    }

    thats the first few lines of admin.php if I remark this lines using the // method or /* */ method it will let me go in and configure but it won't work right nor will it let me upload files... I even tried replacing PHP_SELF with SCRIPT_NAME here... still locks up just as before.

    this is the same issue that I'm having with every module that I try that allows a user to upload (ie. Updownloads, DownloadsPlus etc... )

    and they all have that same line of code that I mentioned above on there admin.php file...

    =] any more assistance would be greatly appreciated

    thanks...
  • remove the exclamation mark:

    if (eregi("admin.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
    die ("Access Denied");
    }
  • Witch version of UpDownload did you try ???

  • 1.0 I believe... whatever the latest version is. and now if I remark the above exclamation mark... as I said earlier it will let me in but doesnt work right. Like now if I go to upload a file... when I press 'add' it returns an error message that says I must include a URL... which it's obviously supposed to be one or the other ( either the upload of a file or the inclusion of a link)

    I have no idea... =]
  • Get the last version from my site.
    Now version 2.1 is released befor a few days.
