Hi all, first off let me just say what a great site this is. I am finding a ton of stuff I didnt know existed for UBB. Thanks everyone for all your hard work.

Now on to my problem, I installed Ely M's file upload on my board, I used multihack to do the install and it went without errors. Except when I try to upload a file I get this error

Software error:

CGI open of tmpfile: No such file or directory

For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error. [Thu Apr 4 07:45:52 2002] C:Inetpubwwwroottdrubbcgi-binupload.cgi: CGI open of tmpfile: No such file or directory

To start my ubb upload folder is located in
c:inetpubwwwroottdrubbubbuploads

In my cp.cgi file I went to my Misc Settings and have the following upload options set
DIR path to the uploads folder: c:inetpubwwwroottdrubbubbuploads
URL path to the uploads folder: http://www.teamdraftracing.com/ubb/ubb/uploads
file limit ( in bytes ): 100000000 (100mb for Racing replay files because they can tend to be large)
Allow file format #1 : jpg

I think I may have the "DIR path to the uploads folder:" set wrong but the example along side of it is a little vague so I assumed they meant from the root of the ubb server not the Web server.

Thanks for your help.

Feels like the temporary directory isn't set properly.

Go find a freely available upload script and installi it at your site - does it work properly?
