Forum images gone?

Post by turbovan »

Hi folks,

Have noticed that images seem to be missing from a bunch of threads. e.g:

https://forum.nistune.com/viewtopic.php?t=3680

Seems that any attachment that is an image, I am unable to download/view. Other attachments (zip, pdf etc) seem to be OK.

Am I missing something or have they been disabled?

Thanks
Matt

I've noticed this and will have to go through the forum upgrades and movement to the new server and fix this up

Attachments were not copied across. I've done that now, so those are working for non image files. Image files are still an issue so looking into that further

I had to contact the old web provider for a copy of the backup. Got that today in one big archive file, so will have a go at the remainder in the next few days

These have been recovered now. During the transfer we used FileZilla for FTP and by default it backed up all the files as TXT mode (instead of BIN mode). All looks okay now
