Attachment problem

I try uploading a file and in the upload box, when uploading, when it is done it says "Upload of file failed." The file type, size, permissions, are all checked and allowed. It just is not uploading the attachment or writing it somehow.

- It works when I upload via URL, but not through the Browse... feature.

Any ideas what the problem could be? I am running 3.6.7 currently. Thanks!
 
why are you still running 3.6.7? upgrade to 3.6.8 theres more than 20 bugs fixed, when you upgrade, if it still doesnt fix the problem (almost gaurenteed it will) ill help u.


If your set on not upgrading and if you have made customer edits to your forum post your edits as those probably have messed up your attachment functions
 
have you set the file types in the admin cp ie tell it to allow rar files etc as there are only about 10ish types allowed as standard
as standard types not allowed are
rar, trt, torrent, xml, 7zip etc
 
so youre not able to upload allowed file extentions from the browse feature? Is that the only error message you get? maybe you have chmoded ur directories incorrectly? when you install vb it automatically set up chmod but if you change those ur board may not be able to write
 
Well I am not sure what needs to be chmoded to what, but the attachments.php is 755. That is the only message I get, and to answer Daz's question the permissions and file types are all setup correctly.

Edit: This is weird.... It is not uploading the first one I try. I try again after, and it uploads, then it won't upload the next if I try, then if I try that again it uploads it...and over & over. This is weird. =/
 
The attachments still are not working. =/ Anyone have any ideas?

Also for some reason none of my dropdown things are working in the forums. Like the vbulletin drop downs for search, forum tools, page #, etc.
