Hi folks (perhaps Vernon:-),

Thank you for your fine work...this looks like a great product.

I have just installed it and things seem to be ok.

Was just about to upload my first images when I was very happy to notice, that FINALLY!, someone had added an option to obtain files LOCALLY (i.e. from other folder within the server), instead of duplicating everything with separate uploads and attachments for each node. YEEHAA! :-)

Then I noticed that although the words are there (e.g. Import Local Files), there is no functioning. This goes for all the other protocols except 'Files to Upload'.

To help you to get on the same page, here are the directions:

Page location: '... node/add/acidfree/mass'

It would be great if I could get this working...but it does not seem to be harming any other functions so I would not call it critical.

Here is my system/server info. in case it helps:

System Info:

Browsers: Firefox 2.0 & IE6.0.2900SP2

ServerSide:

Operating system Linux
Service Status Click to View
Kernel version 2.6.9-34.0.2.ELsmp
Machine Type i686
Apache version 1.3.37 (Unix)

Installed Perl Modules Click to View
PHP version 5.1.6
MySQL version 4.1.21-standard
cPanel Build 10.9.0-RELEASE 44
Theme cPanel X v2.6.0

I hope you can help and thanks in advance for trying.

What do you mean, finally. Server-side local import has always been part of Acidfree. It was a part of my album software before I ported it to Drupal. I use it all the time.

It shows up in 4.7 as a collapsible div that is collapsed by default. If you cannot open it, it means there are javascript errors related to that page. I there are reports of this in another bug, so I think I am going to mark this as a duplicate of bug http://drupal.org/node/89268

Please post your setup there -- what I would like to see is the source code for the offending page attached to the bug.
