I uploaded my family tree (Fornara-Laub) three times today, hoping to correct the problem, to no avail.  It seems that only about 1/4 of the pictures actually show up properly on my family tree.  Is there a size limit to photos?  Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks for your help!

I just noticed this error message: 

[40.65] Unable to write file 'http://familytrees.genopro.com/denisea3465/Fornara-Laub/pictures/ShipManifest12Nov1900pg0262line15-17.jpg'.
The attempt to connect to the server failed; please verify firewall settings, server name and port number

I don't have a firewall program, but I do access through a router (hardware firewall).  Any information to how I fix the settings so it doesn't block my uploading pictures?  Thanks again!

Is your photo display properly when generating the report on your computer (ex: c:\test\) ?

And yes there is a maximum photo size, it's about 10 meg.

I wrote this error message.  You get this message when your publishing session is lost, meaning you got disconnected from our server while publishing.  I cannot tell you exactly why you got disconnected, but it is mostly a problem on the server (perhaps the server was too busy, or the server 'rebooted' a module).  The web is like computers, sometimes it works and sometimes it does not work.

Can you try republishing again?  If you still get this error, please let me know.

Thank you for your help!  Yes, I have tried it several times and still get the error message, although sometimes the numbers at the beginning change.  This is the latest I tried just one minute ago:

[54.79] Unable to write file 'http://familytrees.genopro.com/denisea3465/Fornara-Laub/pictures/ShipManifest07Apr1915pg0035line1-6.jpg'.

Okay, can you send me your photo as an email attachment.  I will try to upload this photo from my own computer.  If I get the error, I will be able to fix it.

I can do that, although in my report I have lots of photos, so should I just pick one?  I do know that all of them are under 2MB (the biggest is around 1.5MB, I believe), but I was wondering if the 10MB limit was for all photos or each photo?  Perhaps that is the problem?

The limit is 10 MB for the largest file.  This is to prevent someone to upload a 500 MB video or something like that.  Some of your pictures are very large however, which may fail to load in GenoPro.  One picture, named "Ship Manifest 27 Jan, 1898, pg 0196, line #10-11.jpg" which is 2.8 MB at resolution 2527x1883.  Can you shrink this picture to a smaller size.  You may use the freeware tool IrfanView (www.IrfanView.com) to resample the picture to a smaller dimension.

Here is the list of the pictures, sorted by size:

All the 5 pictures you sent me uploaded perfectly on the first try, including the two large manifest image scans.  You are welcome to see the report at http://familytrees.genopro.com/GenoProSupport/Denise/.

Below is the log from the report generator.  The orange lines represent the pictures which have been removed from the report because they were not available on my machine, however I would venture those pictures would have been on the report if you had sent the to me.

Tomorrow, I will talk with my brother to discuss what the problem could be.  My guess is your ISP blocks large file uploads.  The report generator uses the HTTP protocol to upload files on a web server, while the HTTP protocol was designed for fetching pages from the web.  We are using this protocol in a way the HTTP designers never intented to, and some ISPs may not like to see a request of 2 MB to fetch a web page.  Typically an HTTP request is 1 or 2 KB (about 1000 times smaller).  It is very difficult to diagnose a problem on someone else's machine.  I wish I could reproduce the problem on my computer.

I've changed the maximum size to 30 megabytes per files.  I did a test with a 14 meg jpg and it worked flawlessly. For sure, the problem is not file size limit on the server.

Thank you so much for your help!  I resized all the files to be 800KB or less and generated the report and it worked perfectly.  You are right that it must have been my server timing out or something.  I really appreciate all the assistance and time you put into trying to help me solve this problem.  You have created a fantastic product and a great service to families all over the world!

Thanks again and best regards!
