board attachment quota has been reached

Postby Grobe » Fri Jul 08, 2011 7:22 am

Hi.

In this thread I needed to upload more than one file. The second svg file I uploaded worked normally. But when I tried to upload another png file (12 kb), it didn't allowed me do ulpoad.

So I decided to delete the first svg file and then try to uploat the png. Also this time, I got the same message and wasn't allowed to upload. So now there is just one single file in the whole thread that is uploaded, and I cant upload any more.

I will in the thread above point to this thread where I upload all neccesary files as one 7z file. This way I pack it as tiny as I can.

Oh no. I get the very same error again.red letter warning "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached."
This is stupid. I really cannot give a decent description of the problem just using words :x :x
:lol:

Unfortunately file uploads are a pain to manage; have a look at this: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=7 (which is one of the stranded notices on your profile page. There are others nowadays as well...

I have reported to microUgly.
Another member reported this as well.

EDIT
Meanwhile, SVG files are accepted and hosted by imgh.us: http://www.imgh.us/index.php

(This is not file sharing, but a true host. However, the file can still be downloaded. Use Save Target As from context (right-click) menu, in Windows. I'm not sure about other systems.)

If the per user quota is exhausted, how come that apparently different users are affected by the limit at the same time? (Yes, me too [1]). Coincidence? Or is this the quota of the forum itself, for all users? (i.e. even if I take the time to prune images from older topics with fewest hits, the quota will be reached again as soon others attach a few images in the meantime?)

[1] Admittedly I haven't tried again since then.

My apologies. The attachment setting was not configured as I originally thought. There should be room now, and when I get a chance I'll ensure there is an appropriate per user setting.
