Fix For 1.5.3.1 Failure to Upload Images with csv File

[KenSTJ]

OK, enough's enough - come on Prestashop Support - uploading images is a basic function that is not working. This does:

 

This is for version 1.5.3.1

Take your time and BE CAREFUL!

 

1. Navigate to controllers/admin/AdminImportController.php

2. Make/Save a copy of AdminImportController.php - just in case you need to resurrect it.

3. Open AdminImportController.php with a suitable application (Notepad, Dreamweaver, whatever...)

4. Scroll down to line (approx) 645 you are looking for the following lines to delete:

 

645 do $uniqid = uniqid(); while (file_exists(_PS_UPLOAD_DIR_.$uniqid));

 

646 $tmp_file = file_put_contents(_PS_UPLOAD_DIR_.$uniqid, $field);

 

647 $fd = fopen($temp, 'r');

 

5. Delete the 3-lines above (the lines are important to delete - the line numbers in case your numbers differ slightly)

6. Add the following lines in their place:

 

645 do $uniqid_path = _PS_UPLOAD_DIR_.uniqid(); while (file_exists($uniqid_path));

 

646 file_put_contents($uniqid_path, $field);

 

647 $fd = fopen($uniqid_path, 'r');

 

7. Delete the following line which is just a line or two down - apprx 650

 

650 unlink($tmp_file);

 

8. Replace it with:

 

650 unlink($uniqid_path);

 

9. Save the file - your images will now upload (You're Welcome!)
