Getting the following log:

Possible root cause: should includes/classes/upload.php line 84 be changed from:

                'tmp_name' => (isset($GLOBALS[$this->file]) ? $GLOBALS[$this->file] : ''),

to:

                'tmp_name' => (isset($GLOBALS[$this->file . '_tmp_name']) ? $GLOBALS[$this->file . '_tmp_name'] : ''),

can you provide the steps necessary to replicate the error?

best.

[swguy]

I cannot. I am just seeing these logs after the fact.

You know, of course, that without replication of the error you're throwing spit-balls on the ceiling to see what sticks in any "solution".

my thoughts exactly.... although perhaps i would have used a different analogy...

I'm kind of hoping someone else who has had this problem will chime in and describe how it happens. I haven't yet had time to dup it; I just saw it yesterday. Obviously I am going to try.

Was trying to add images to attributes in an upgrade from 1.5.4. First, former x spurt had turned off images for attributes. Of course, Attributes Image Swatch etc. would not show up. Once I made the suggested change, all image data showed in the Attributes Controller.

HTH

This bug happens every time I try and add an attribute using the attributes controller on my site.

The above fix seems to work fine.

This doesn't happen in a stock install of zen cart, seems to have something to do with enabling attribute images somewhere.
