File Manager names uploaded files incorrectly

When uploading files using the File Manager under the Admin menu, the uploaded file gets named the full pathname rather than just the basename of the file.

Example:  When I upload a file named "C:\temp\somefile.jpg" the file gets named "C:\temp\somefile.jpg" and not just "somefile.jpg".

I am using the SVN PostgreSQL version of mojoPortal and have not tried this with the other versions.

Re: File Manager names uploaded files incorrectly

Yes I've seen this, but it only happens with IE not Firefox

I will look into it and see what I can find. I think I loked into this once before and could not produce the symptom on Windows but I can't remember for sure.

Re: File Manager names uploaded files incorrectly

This looks like it might be a mono bug, the relevant code is
 
Path.GetFileName(file.FileName))

and Path.GetFileName is supposed to just get the file name without the path.

Re: File Manager names uploaded files incorrectly

I can confirm that this does not occur on windows. I will test it on the latest mono from svn this weekend and if it does the same there I'll post a bugzilla on it.

It also does not happen with Firefox on mono. My first guess is that Path.GetFileName on linux doesn't understand c:\blah\blah which is passed up from IE and therefore treats the whole thing as the file name where it would understand a linux path like /blah/blah/somefile

I  can't prove it obviously because I can't upload a file from IE on linux


Thanks,

Joe
