File manager upload doesn't work

[Hostbox.be]

Hi all,

I tried the file manager for uploading a jpg (200kb) file, it says uploading, then upload completed.... so no errors, but the file is not on the server when I refresh the folder content ? I checked then via SSH, but the file is not present.

There is space available on the account !

I used IE and Firefox.

Version info:
cPanel 11.25.0-S46156 - WHM 11.25.0 - X 3.9
CENTOS 4.8 i686 standard

File manager v3

Any suggestions ?

Not sure if this is relevant or not, but I recall something having to do with anti virus scanner on the server blocking uploads a while back on this forum.

I suppose an easy way to test might be to upload a different type file, like a .txt file for example. Are all files not being uploaded or just this jpg? I'm not saying it's a dirty jpg file or anything of course, just thinking out loud here really as to ways to troubleshoot and help track down the issue.

Please update to the latest cPanel version; the reported version is out-of-date and the latest release includes a few fixes for cPanel File Manager that might help alleviate the difficulty.

The latest version numbers can be confirmed via the following web site: Latest cPanel/WHM Builds

The official change log is available here: cPanel Change Log

If the difficulty persists please check the cPanel error_log via root SSH access to determine if there may be an issue that was not immediately apparent or visible when using cPanel File Manager:

# less /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log

The following command can be used to monitor the cPanel error_log; this can be started via root SSH access before testing cPanel File Manager to help obtain more relevant and fresh log detail:

# tail -fvn0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log

Same problem here.
My cpanel version is WHM 11.28.83
I have Chyirpy´s ConfigServer packedge installed.
I´ve tried a lot of accounts. none works

 

[cPanelTristan]

Are there any errors in the error log when running the command that Don previously provided?

tail -fvn0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log

 

[FeeL]

Hie Tristan.
Tnx 4 the quick reply.

[email protected] [/home/asdasdasd/www]# tail -fvn0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log
==> /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log <==

Nothing there!

As the guy said before - @ this ticket - the message (and the status bar) of the upload says that it is there. I´ve tried looking with the ftp client, and it isn not.

Tnx

Are you running anything like clamav on the machine? If so, can you try disabling it to see the results?

If you are not, then please open a ticket at WHM > Support Center > Contact cPanel or using the link in my signature.

 

[FeeL]

Nope.
No ClamAV either. I´ll post a support @ cpanel tho.

tnx

Hello FeeL,

I've checked into your ticket and it appears you had to restart MailScanner and then make the following change in the MailScanner frontend interface to get both mail working again and clamAV functioning still.

Before:

Virus Scanners = clamd
ClamAV Full Message Scan = yes

After:

Virus Scanners =
ClamAV Full Message Scan = no

IF they installed clamavconnector on the server, then that is what has caused the problem. You cannot have clamavconnector on a server running MailScanner. Uninstalling it via WHM should resolve the problem.

How can we solve the problem, wihout killing my mail server??

 

[cPanelTristan]

The issue was that clamav had previously been installed at some point, since this error was being detected on each file upload attempt (which is why I asked before you opened the ticket if clamav had ever been on the system):

info [cpanel] Virus detected in upload /home/username/tmp/Cpanel_Form_file.upload._rDakTUm5BABKS4L by user username (About Stacks.pdf): Clamd is not configured properly.

The only reason we reinstalled clamav per the ticket was because the improperly working copy was preventing the file uploads. You are welcome to uninstall it again provided it is properly uninstalled using WHM > Manage Plugins area this time.
