In reply to: HTTP Crunching Error while Uploading Audio / IIS 7 WindowsA follow up to the above post about html error and photo crunching:
Got a response back from my host, here is what it said:
From Host: “We can raise the memory limits and upload max sizes. What would you like to raise them to?”
Think this could solve a lot of problems for everyone, if you are trying to upload anything large, such as the video that was quoted as problematic, above.
Hope this helps as one alternative. Too large for host limits? I thought it was a Server or WordPress problem too! Again, Good Luck!!!

In reply to: HTTP Crunching Error while Uploading Audio / IIS 7 WindowsFirst thing I suggest to check is picture size.
Go by Photo Dimensions, try a photo at 300×300 just to see if it works. If that works, try one at 900px wide. Then try over 1000px wide, and see if size is an issue first.
Seems the size does reduce when upgrading to a newer php version, so I am thinking it is the PHP Memory Limit. This is something that could be brought up with your host if you still want giant pics.
We upgraded php, and photo upload size ability got smaller. We were used to uploading these sizes, so thought it was a “real problem”.
Most themes can’t use anything over the theme width anyway, and large pictures do make a giant file for moving photo files later if you need to; or to back them up.
After reading every fix on the web, spending hours upon hours on this, this is all it took for me.
This is happening with us in June of 2011, WordPress 3.1.3, We upgraded our php to 5.2 to be ready for WP 3.2.
I have seen this has been a longstanding problem over the years, as everything I have been reading is Old on this subject.
I believe it is an ongoing problem and size will trigger the HTTP Error while crunching and freezes.
Good Luck!

In reply to: Upgrade Permissions Failed to Connect to FTP ServerIf you administer your websites in the Plesk Control panel;
On Domain Set Up or in “Web Hosting Settings”, you can choose from “Apache Module” to “Fast CGI application”. Check the php support box, then set to “fast cgi application, then I SHUT OFF the php safe mode.
WordPress works by checking php support, selecting Fast CGI application, and the php safe mode box is unchecked or off.
This was my resolve to: I got a “cannot connect to connect to server at: http://www.domainname.com:21”
The default setting on my server is “Apache Module”, but WordPress Plug ins or updates does not automatically update with it set on “Apache Module”. By switching from “Apache Module” to “Fast CGI application”, it works. No permissions changes were necessary. Good luck!
(If you do not administrate your own server, just copy the above and send it to your server guy or website host. He will have to change this at the server level for each domain name. It is worth a try!)

Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error establishing a database connection (again)Having the same problem. I am on a MS server for this application, as I run Linux, never a problem. I want this on a domain that is on that server however. It seems to be working on the server, processing up to the point that It says cant contact the database server.
Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at sqlserver1.ourserverwehavetouse.com. This could mean your host’s database server is down.
* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?We have re-checked everything. I am so not fond of MS Servers! Give me my linux. Guess I can’t have it on this domain name, unless someone has a brilliant idea. Everything in wp-config.php is correct! I have installed a lot of these on my server.

In reply to: [Plugin: Google XML Sitemaps] Only Some Posts Showing in SitemapOne more suggestion, multiple category listings produce multiple content, so not a good idea for SEO. It might fit more than one category, but search engines prefer clean structure and non duplicate content. I checked my settings, and I checked posts, home page, and static pages. These are all the pages in my site. I don’t check category or archives at all. Again just a suggestion for you. Good luck.

In reply to: [Plugin: Google XML Sitemaps] Only Some Posts Showing in SitemapI love this plug in. Accolades to this guy. In your plug-in list in WordPress you should see a link at the bottom of the description that says settings. This link takes you to a page that allows for a yahoo number that is required by yahoo, as well as settings on all your priority levels and what you want to include at the very bottom of that settings page.
There needs to be one thing that is checked for each blog you want to see, either categories, posts, or something. This filter works really well for me! We have worked with this plug in extensively, and enjoy it very much. It pounds the Search Engines with every “change” I make.
Good luck to you, and thanks Arne
