      I think he's talking about the CP file "manager". There's none, it's a simple file picker input. (SFTP ain't really a option for that, this junk gets saved into config.xml.)

        Hi

        Yep its old hardware an old Dell. Pity really as everything else seems to work from the basic system with no packages added.

        I will have a look and see if I can file transfer them, if not, what you are saying is that the only alternative is to upgrade to newer hard ware !! shame.

        Thanks for your help anyway

          No, you cannot SFTP those. And – no such thing happens even on Alix. Try an in-place reinstall. Try wiping your browser cache. Try a different browser. Try a browser in safe mode. This simply doesn't normally happen no matter how shitty HW.

            @Packern:

            I am trying to upload jpg files in file manager but seem unable to do so.
            On clicking upload the page then displays error "page cannot be displayed" on refreshing it  then displays the captive portal zones page. Checking file manager no files have been uploaded ????

            You've got me thinking… are you clicking on the 'Browse' button and selecting a file first BEFORE clicking the 'Upload' button?

              Keep also in mind:

              The total size limit for all files is 1.00 MB.
              

              But I guess you will be fine :

                As noted above - this gets saved into config.xml; stop trying to use the CP as a website if you have trouble with the limit.

                      The file uploads are pretty strange if you have more than one portal defined.

                      I only use file upload on the first portal I defined, regardless of which portal needs the file. All the files are available to all portals and they all share the same namespace. It's pretty much a mess.

                      DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

                        Well …. normally, a login page (and error page) don't have the same file footprint as a basic WP install neither ;) !?

                          There should only be one file manager.  Either only a file manager tab page on the first portal, or every portal showing all the files.  The way it is now is stupid.
