Hi guys, just tried to upload my Discworld II walkthrough masterpiece and keep getting a message "Unable to upload to server".

Is it just a temporary fault? Or is it somethig to do with my browser (Opera). Apologies if it has gotten through to you several times.

I shall try again later if there is a problem and use IE.

Thanks

I used MS Word. Will look into it.

Thanks Eccles for the modification and posting it for me - over the moon to see another walkthrough on my interactive profile now :)

Hopefully somebody will make good use of it!

Have a good week

Posted it for you. I think the problem was that your walkthrough contained HTML entities (&817; instead of a comma, etc). Not sure what you used to type it up. No need to post it like that now as I've modified it to do the HTML entities when you post.

Cheers Eccles...congrats on getting here first :)

Will just send it to you now, although expect you are away for the weekend. It's not too important anyway, I can wait :)

I win!

Could you send me the walkthrough using the Send a message link under my avatar. I'll then try posting it for you so I can see exactly what happens and hopefully fix it for you.

Good. No worries - I guess I wasn't really that clear when I posted first time (I even confused myself).

Thought it was, as generally a lot of freeola related issues pop up in here (I feel so out of my depth looking at the threads!)

Thanks for your help Hmmm.., just have to sit tight and see which staffie will turn up first. Cheers

oh I see - now I'm with you! I thought you were trying to play some sort of game online or something - *blush*

That does sound like a Freeola problem if you've tried a couple of different browsers.
Looks like you'll have to wait for a staffie to turn up...

And you're right this is the 'normal' forum for Freeola issues.

I'm just trying to upload the walkthrough of the game Discworld to the freeola walkthrough section.

Usually have no problem, but freeola just gives me the messsage "Unable to upload to database" in the top left hand corner. No other error.

Thought I'd post here as most people here understand how websites work etc. and the freeola help forum has disappeared.

Sorry I've never heard of it...
I'm guessing Discworld II is a game?

If it is a game the Game Forum may be able to help, or you could look for a support forum dedicated to the game?

The only other thing I can think of is looking for the full error. Is there any message code when it fails or is "unable to upload to server" the exact error that's displayed?

If it's not a game perhaps you could explain what it is.
