Re: how do you post large files to lc server or php script?

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Hi,

to be more clear:

LC is unresponsive after the beep. It seems the script is finished, but 
something is still running.

And the 2nd line of the script of course only conains  the url once. It seems 
my email client formatted it wrong.

Regards,
Matthias

how do you post large files to lc server or php script?

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

Hi

how do you post large files to a php or lc server script?

I am noticing  problems when doing the libURLMultipartFormData stuff.
In my case even a  2mb jpeg file causes LC 8.1.2, 8.1.4RC3 and LC 9 DP6 (did 
not try other versions)  to be very unresponsive right after i called that 
function.
For example the following script,, executes until the end. I can hear the beep 
and i see the formdata in the message box  but it takes
30 to 40 seconds and longer until i am able to edit/use the LC editor again. 
Sometimes LC stays unresponsive until i force quit  and restart it.
Tried also other file types, not just jpeg.


   put empty into tFormData
   put "https://myserver.com/upload.lc " into 
tUrl
   put "upload" into tAction
   put “/Users/matthias/Desktop/Scan.pdf” into myFile
   put "" & myFile into tFile
   
   if  libUrlMultipartFormData(tFormData,"action",tAction,"userfile", tFile) is 
not empty 
   then
  answer it
  exit to top
   end if   
   put tFormData
  -- set the httpHeaders to line 1 of tFormData
  --post line 2 to -1 of tFormData to url tUrl 
  -- put the result &return &it
   ## check the result, etc., here
  -- set the httpHeaders to empty
beep


Am i missing something? 
Can i use a tsNet command/function to post to a server script w/o using the 
libURLmultipartformdata function? Or is there an other way to post larger files?

Regards,

Matthias
