I'm having a problem posting photos from my Droid Eris to WordPress. I can put photos into my post via the phone's gallery; however, when I use the in-app function to take a new picture with the camera it force closes every time. This function of the app has never worked on my phone.

I have rebooted the phone. I have reinstalled WordPress for Android. I rebooted again. I have tried various settings on and off including the "include link to full-size" function in the app and "Keep uploads organized by year and month" in WordPress.

Once again I can upload from the gallery so I am pretty sure this is an app bug not a WordPress error. Any help is appreciated.

Regards

My theme requires me to have a "feature image" in my post to show a picture in my slideshow and the images for my thumbnails. After I uploaded a test article to my page, it just defaulted to the default image, not the image I uploaded. Is there anyway to set it as a feature image from my android device?

Edit: I can actually go into my backend, but once I get to the photo uploader, it takes me to the upload area with the error "No files found". Anyway to get files to that folder? That would be a happy medium for me.

I solved the problem re-installing the App.

Everything was fine with the 1.5

The post saves ok but it doesn't upload the images attached.

I'm running WordPress 3.0.1

Ps: I'm using the last WordPress for Android version.

Any other ideas?

To test, I used 1/2 the resolution quality on the Evo (QVGA) and it posted fine. I preferred default is the 640x480 VGA.

I also noticed that the post from the Cliq xt appeared as an in-line video. From the Evo, it was a linked video. I've left both up to view at the following links:

Evo: http://infinitlove.com/9sd
Cliq xt: http://infinitlove.com/9sc

Any thoughts?

You can change the values to how much storage you think you'll need.

I am able to successfully upload a new post with pictures now as long as that box is unchecked.
thanks.

my site is http://www.amciccio.com and is using the current version of wordpress.

the picture is being uploaded to the server and is visible when i look at content/uploads folder.
the folder does have full permission of the 777

though the image is not visible in the post.

any ideas?

I've got a droid, will try and reproduce and get a fix out for ya.

Created new post with the same pic that's been used to date and MAN the Gallery took forever to load up. Shut down Gallery again before uploading (again via TaskPanel) and same F/C happens.

Just for S&G I also uploaded the original file via ftp, and it looks like maybe the WP app is creating 3 snapshot views? The original image is 2k by 3k pixels, 3.8mb; the largest file in the uploads folder is 500x667px, 81kb.

The files uploaded by WP were all named wpid-filename-150x150.jpg or -224x300.jpg or just ;wpid-filename.jpg

The original file was roughly 2kpx x 3kpx; it had been cropped already from a 12mp camera shot. I converted the file myself to a 684x912px file and upload worked fine.

I tried uploading the original 2x3kpx image and the same problem happened (Force Close after creating/uploading 3 different snapshot images). TaskPanel showed 59mb free when I opened it after the F/C.

On the other other hand, posting a picture taken by the Droid's 5mp camera worked fine @ 2592x1936px, with five snapshots created (two each named 112x150, 224x300 and the 'full size' 373x499 snapshot, looks like 1 of each snapshot is rotated 90degrees?)

I guess for now I'll have to use my laptop to post any larger pics - I don't use the Droid camera because it just doesn't focus well for me, while I have a nice, small, 12mp point'n'shoot that does. It looks like for some reason there's a maximum file size or resolution before the WP app goes 'blooey', could be running out of memory I guess but if it is, it's being nice and releasing what it used when it crashes ;) Thank you good coders!

I also checked, and I have all the 'max media size' settings on my blog set to 4kx4k just to be sure.

Let me know how it goes.

Turns out my site didn't have the wp-content/upload folder present, so I created it and set the permissions to 777 using my ftp client (btw the '777' thing for Drebo means the folder needs to have full permissions set for all users basically).

Now I get Force Close when uploading the post, which happens _after_ the media upload. The media files are all in the (newly-created) wp-content/upload/2010/06 folder, including 2 different-sized thumbnails.

I'm using WordPress for Android v1.2.1 on a Motorola Droid running 2.1update 1, posting to a 2.9.2 WordPress self-hosted blog @ http://x.timdraper.com/WordPress

I've even tried setting the specific path to the upload folder in the misc settings, same issue, so I reset it to blank.

I've tested uploading media through the standard web interface, have no problems.

Any assistance appreciated; I used the Report option when the app crashed a couple times, maybe that'll help.
