Yes I pointed the browser to the correct local file in both cases. The file was 4MB. 4MB>250kB. Appropriate messages to say this are "File too big", "File size exceed limits", "Sorry, only 250kB files are allowed". Not "Invalid filename". > Also _please_ log in. It will let you attach more to your bug reports rather I have already plenty of bug tracking system logins and don't want any more. Searching for the passwords every time is annoying. Remembering them is impossible. Apart from tons of other accounts I have accounts on: * Samba bugzilla * gentoo bugzilla * gentoo forum * Apache bugzilla * xfree86 bugzilla > I won't argue that the SF bug tracker is perfect, but it does provide > a lot of functionality. Yes, but reporting bugs in bug reporting systems that have bugs (as was obviously proven - "invalid filename" as a reaction to too long file is obviously a bug) strongly smells with infinite recursivity (what if the bugreporting system that the bugreporting system bugreporting system uses has a bug too that prevents you from filing the bug into the bugreporting system properly?)
