SID-02008: Upload and Download Attachments

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.2.0	Perl version:	5.8.4
Category:	CategoryAttachments	Server OS:		Last update:	10 years ago

I am trying to upload files periodically from a server, because a local Perl script generates a new version of the file. I tried using UploadToTWikiAddOn but that silently fails for the server I tried. When I tried the default "perl ./uploadtotwiki.pl -l TWikiGuest ./corgi-extinct-ftr.jpg http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Sandbox/UploadTest", it had an error 500: bad hostname error. I'm running the script using perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

Also, when opening attached files, is it possible to have them download when added in-line?

Thanks

Discussion and Answer

What login manager do you use on your TWiki? From the doc: "At this time the script only supports ApacheLogin only; support for TemplateLogin is pending." It does not work on TWiki.org due to template login. You could sponsor the enhancement of this script to support template login by hiring a TWiki Consultant.

Opening or downloading attached files depends on the mime type of the file and the browser setting for the mime type.
