Coppermine blank upload.php

[MJJOS]

Hi there,

I know you have seen this problem before, but no definitive solution has been posted, threads have just been closed declaring problem solved.

On my coppermine installation, whenever I try to upload an image, the image uploads and it says 1 file uploaded successfully, but when you go to the next page to add the details, on upload.php, the page just shows up blank. Appropriate permissions are on the file and containing folder.

I am not sure but reading the some of the threads people are mentioning php version 3? Is that how to fix the problem? Upgrade the php3 version?

Here is the entry in my error log:

[Tue Apr 01 14:30:25 2008] [error] [client 86.41.131.169] ALERT - function within blacklist called: exec() (attacker '***', file '/home/mjjos/public_html/mjjos/coppermine/include/picmgmt.inc.php', line 210), referer: http://www.nwo-guild.com/mjjos/coppermine/upload.php

I have just *** my IP if you don't mind.

I saw a thread where a guy said exec() was blacklisted, which as you can see is the situation for me above, and he mentioned php version 3 and he reported the problem fixed.

So is php version 3 my answer or is there another solution?

Thanks in advanced.

I think exec() is enabled on PHP v2 (Intermediate). I see you have this version.
If you just upgraded, or if you changed/added a subdomain or domain, you need to wait 6hs for that domain to update.

If this is not the problem post back and I'll investigate it.

Thanks for the speedy reply,

Nope I have had version 2 for ages, and I have not been adding any domains or subdomains.

Can you create me a user for testing? I'll try to reproduce the error and see what's wrong.
If you can, send me the info and URL by PM.

Hey,

I just turned on guest permissions for you, just go to http://www.nwo-guild.com/mjjos/coppermine/upload.php and work away, image uploading is allowed. If you still need a test account just let me know.
Thanks again!
Edit:
Or is it admin permissions for the config you want?

Well, I got confused and told you exec() was enabled, and it isn't. shell_exec() and exec() are not enabled due tu security reasons.
ImageMagick needs exec() to work, so that's why your script won't work correctly. I've searched a bit and in the Coppermine FAQ it says that they also support GD.
You should change this on your setting and your gallery should work.
