Just a note for those watching at home- I can’t replicate.  Running 1.6.1 on EH and using GD2 I put maybe 5 files in the batch folder.  One all caps, spaces in a few, my.image.with.dots.jpg in one.  No whitescreen and they batched in fine.  If you like, you could attach some of the images with the old names and we could try it with those- or put them all in a zip file.  But so far, I haven’t been able to replicate.

I didn’t experience it either until last night. And I’ve uploaded a gazillion images over the last year.

I was on 1.6.0 @ the server at that moment, but again, upload images before without a glitch.

Have you tried converted images? What I did, different than all the other times, was convert the images from .gif/.tif/.bmp to .jpg using an Automator script on my mac.

And the only -clear line- I could find was the above. I’ll upload some images for you to try tomorow.

Alrighty then!

Sorry it took me so long to finalize this test.  I had to drop it for a while, but now it’s working!

I upgraded to 1.6.1 and the problems still existed. So I took a second look at my php.ini file.  I bumped up some settings and poof!  It works fine.

(Just a note that even though I did get a blank screen, the images were processed and did get put into the gallery folder, but EE didn’t recognize that they were there, nor see them as Entries)

I changed these PHP.INI settings and now is working no problem:

max_execution_time = 90     ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 90    ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 64M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 64M

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 100M

I think what did it was the post_max_size setting. It was 8MB and I changed to 64MB.

Give that a shot!

Glad you got it working, thanks for posting your solution!
