My avatar upload is rejected. This is the file attached to this post.
What's the trouble ?
Thanks.

Sorry, are you talking about it being rejected on this forum? on your own forum? or both.. I have successfully uploaded it on my local working copy
Also when you say 'rejected', what message do you get?
What are your settings in WP Admin > Forum > Profile > Avatars

Can you translate that return message for me please? Any any other useful informartion - like avatar priority, avatar set size etc., would be useful.

Curious. What sort of file is it?
Why do you not try uploading it to your profile on this site and see what happens? Be a useful test.

By the way - that message is generated if the file being uploaded has an incorrect mime type.

Well - as I say - to return that message the file is failing the exif_imagetype() check which ensures the file is a proper jpg, png or gif.
If that works here then it may be a setting on your own server perhaps? Although I have to be honest and say that I do not know what that might be.
It might also be worth you checking that your php 'tmp' folder is correctly set up on the server. Your hosting support should be able to check this. I do not think that would trigger this particular return message but if there is a problem there it might be confused!

After spending a lot of time trying to find the problem origin, I commented the follwing lines of code in sp-ahah-profile-save.php :
/**
# check image file mimetype
$mimetype = 0;
$mimetype = exif_imagetype($_FILES['avatar-upload']['tmp_name']);
$mimetype = exif_imagetype($uploadfile);
if (empty($mimetype) || $mimetype == 0 || $mimetype > 3) {
$message['type'] = 'error';
$message['text'] = sp_text('Sorry, the avatar file is an invalid format');
return $message;
}
**/
And now, my avatar il correctly uploaded and displayed. I don't understand why exif_imagetype returns an empty string !
