Re: "Security Error" when trying to upload a file.

However, using the server name is not a viable solution for me, since some of our developers must be able to access the bug tracking server from outside the LAN.

Not the server name the domain name ie. www.mybugtracker.com

However it is that your developers access the bugtracker system,... That what you replace 'localhost' with..

You can reach me at santosr at trial+graphix dot com ('get rid of the plus')

It may be easier to communicate that way.

Re: "Security Error" when trying to upload a file.

I did try using the domain name as well. The upload still failed because Flash doesn’t support the authentication.

I moved UploadAttachment.aspx into the uploads folder and allowed anonymous access to that folder only. Then I gave write permissions to the anonymous IIS user for the upload directory. Now the upload completes, but I still do not see the file anywhere on the server, nor is there any entry in the database saying it was uploaded. This may be an issue with BugNET.

The default.aspx page sets a cookie for the user that will allow them to upload files. Take a look at this code as it may not be working with windows sam authentication.

I am also open to alternatives to swfupload, at first glance it seemed to solve many issues of multiple file uploads but seems to be causing a lot of problems. Perhaps a simpliar solution exists.

Re: "Security Error" when trying to upload a file.

I did look at the default.aspx code and didn't see any immediate issues. We decided to give up on SAM and moved to regular forms based authentication, so our uploads are working fine now.

Maybe it would be a good idea to allow the administrator to choose a standard asp.net forms upload method as an alternative to swfupload. Embedding a small upload form in an iframe for the issue attachments tab would work just as well.

Re: "Security Error" when trying to upload a file.

I too receive this error. I am using Forms Authentication. This works locally on my machine. The project is set up to use database storage for attachments. When I deploy the app to a server all I receive is that error. I have checked the logs, the event log and still have no clue what is going on.

Any help would be appreciated.

My site is hosted on Windows 2003 Server and is running under the Network Service account. All other features are working normally.
