Is it where when adding a new file using the "special" files content type you are required to add a file from a list of values but the list of values is empty?

Because I just figured that out ;)

The bug is in upload handling. The upload is not persistent, that is the file stays temporary. This leads to a bunch of other problems.

Essentially this alpha release is useless. I'm considering my options how to deal with this.

Well, this is an odd issue. It is php version related. on php4 -> works. php 5.2 -> the bugger loses the files. Haven't managed to find the culprits. It is docs related, but I can't find the culprit in the spaghetti bawl.

I'm considering doing a simple file uploads node type. It will be allright for Drupal 6, but can be a bit hairy in drupal 5, why I haven't done it in the first place.

Might be worth just forgetting v5 and concentrating on v6 then? What makes the file uploads work in 6 but not 5?

Sorry to annoye with the tipical silly question... but do you have any preview about when this bug will be fixed for drupal 5 or it won't be fixed?

Thanks for the great module. It's simple but perfect to work as a very basic DMS.

I wish I could put a target date. To be honest I shot myself in the foot with the approach I took in this module.

I'm rewriting it in-lieu the changes for D6, but it should work with D5. Must work, since I don't plan to sitch immediately , but need the module.

Any progress with solving this bug? Waiting for this module to be usable too. I am working at some intranet site and this module would help me a lot.

Thanks
