There's seems a problem when using image URLs in uploading photos of a tag. After finishing the upload duration it will says '[color=#FF0000:3quneuyl]File is too small[/color:3quneuyl]' then the uploaded photo fails. I've already created a Bug Report for this.

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/user/tools/user_reports/?action=show&;type=0&id=3251&backurl=%26type%3D%26order%3D%26showall%3D%26p%3D1">wikimapia.org/user/tools/user_re ... 3D%26p%3D1<!-- m -->

Hopefully WM Team will fix this soon.

I can't get image uploading via URL to work. It just returns without uploading the image.

This was fixed a day ago, if you are still having problem, perhaps you need to re-open this report:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/user/tools/user_reports/?action=show&;type=0&id=3264&backurl=%26type%3D%26order%3D%26showall%3Don%26p%3D1">wikimapia.org/user/tools/user_re ... on%26p%3D1<!-- m -->

This old problem has reactivated. I cannot upload a photo to the new object (even if created 3 days ago) while I can add it to the "1-year-old". However, there is one exception in comparison with the April case - the linear objects 'accept' photos, even if it is e.g. a street created by me right now.

Hi -- newbie here.

For the last three days I've been unable to upload images. The upload tool allows me to select a file on my hard drive, and the file appears to be uploading. But after a few moments a red "no file uploaded" message appears in the "Current photos" box and that's that.

[list:8jn4hoz8]* My photos are all on my local hard drive.
* The ones for upload have been sized to 1400 X 1050 px, or between 400 and 800 kB. So not very big.
* I use Chromium on Linux, or Chrome on Windows.
* All the images are photos I took myself at the places mapped.[/list:u:8jn4hoz8]

I successfully added 52 images before the problem started.

As a newbie, I hesitate to file a bug report before I hear from more experienced users. Anybody have an idea what's wrong?

Regards

I was able to upload a photo using the Old Version.

(Google Translation: Я был в состоянии загрузить фотографию с использованием старой версии.)

Nope, photo upload is not working for me either.

Tried:
[list:1f27szcu]
* Resizing photos to under 256 kB
* Using Wikimapia Classic
* Using Wikimapia old version
* Using a clean install of PaleMoon browser, instead of Chromium[/list:u:1f27szcu]

Nothing worked. Nice to know it's a problem others are having. Got a barrel of patience out in the garage, I can wait until things are fixed. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Ah, so! I too can post at least some images to older tags, but not to recently added ones.

Devs? Does this shed any light on the situation?

I also experienced the same problem, but there seems to be two way-arounds.

1. The minimum size of the photo is not specified by WIkimapia. Sometimes, it gives the message 'File too small'. It seems the minimum width is around 350 pixels, which I checked by trial and error.

2. Even when the file is uploaded and the 'Save' button is click on Edit page, nothing happens. But even then, when you click 'Cancel', return to main page and then come back again, Presto!, the photo is seen uploaded anyway!!

Must be a bug

Good notes, sk2010...

I try for 1400 X 1050 px images, usually, so I haven't been near the minimum size limit you note. Good to know it exists; thanks!

I still have problems. In some cases I've been able to upload images to tags I've created in the last few days; in other cases I cannot upload to a recent tag no matter what I try. One of the most annoying is [url:339o4axz]http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=44.437580&lon=-121.366653&z=13&m=b&show=/31602951/Alder-Springs-Basin[/url:339o4axz] -- I've got some pics of interesting rock pinnacles and cliffs, and darned if I can get them to upload!

Perhaps in time database updates will fix the problem.

The problem of adding photos to just created places has disappeared today. However, as we remember, it should be solved as it cyclically returns.
For me, it seems to be working an over-sensitive anti-spam system, activating after some months "limit". But why for all the users? <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

Yeah, it's gone for me too. I uploaded a dozen or so images today, and all went smoothly.

Cyclically returns, huh? Good to know.

I don't mind if it really just over week-ends and working perfectly for the rest of the week. But it has a tendency to prolong it's 'holiday'. <!-- s:x --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mad.gif" alt=":x" title="Mad" /><!-- s:x -->

It directly depends [b:74hiaupo]on how 'fresh' [/b:74hiaupo] your place tags are (today's, yesterday's...), please check thoroughly[i:74hiaupo] (I might be wrong?)[/i:74hiaupo]
It always (I would even say persistently, as a matter of fact) happens with newly created place tags, and (almost) [b:74hiaupo]never with older ones[/b:74hiaupo].

This issue is so [b:g3ksz20u]frustrating[/b:g3ksz20u]! Seems lately to not work more than it works. Bug reports are 3 months arrears in review. How can such a primary function as photo uploading in Wikimapia go unaddressed for so long?

Anybody know how we can start a petition asking the owners/administrators to address this issue for a permanent fix?

Fact of the matter is, there is no admin dealing with the bug issue for quite a while.

Do by all means start a petition if you think that could help. Personally I am not sure what good that action can be or how permanent the fix could be.

EN:
Some strange things are happening. I cannot upload any photo near this location: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/#lat=46.7934802&;lon=48.0056431&z=15&l=1&m=b">wikimapia.org/#lat=46.7934802&;lo ... 15&l=1&m=b<!-- m -->
For example objects <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/31847812/ru/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%88%D0%B5%D1%8...">wikimapia.org/31847812/ru/%D0%9F ... 1%81%D1%82<!-- m -->
or <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/31847842/ru/%D0%92%D0%BE%D0%BA%D0%B7%D0%B...">wikimapia.org/31847842/ru/%D0%92 ... 0%B0%D0%BB<!-- m -->
While in the same time it's OK to upload photos to other locations. I did not make experiments to determine "blast radius" of this bug, but the closest object, that was OK is located some 30 km to the north. I cannot even imagine the source of the trouble, though I am a programmer myself. The only explanation is that there are some physical servers for storing photos. And some of them (that is responsible for this area) is down. But this seems unlikely to me. So what should I do?

Наблюдаю какие-то странные штучки. Не могу загрузить фото в окрестностях этого места: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/#lat=46.7934802&;lon=48.0056431&z=15&l=1&m=b">wikimapia.org/#lat=46.7934802&;lo ... 15&l=1&m=b<!-- m -->
Например для объекта <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/31847812/ru/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%88%D0%B5%D1%8...">wikimapia.org/31847812/ru/%D0%9F ... 1%81%D1%82<!-- m -->

Хотя в то же самое время в других местах всё ОК. Я не экспериментировал, насколько велик "радиус поражения" этого глюка, но ближайший объект, для которого фото загрузились без проблем, был расположен в каких-то километрах 30 к северу. Даже представить не могу причин такого глюка, хотя сам программист. Единственное объяснение, что существует несколько серверов для хранения фотографий, и один из них (отвечающий за этот регион) упал. Но это кажется мне мало правдоподобным. В общем - чего делать?

Came across this article: [url:2erwzmse]http://www.chicagotribune.com/bluesky/technology/sns-rt-us-russia-wikipedia-alternative-20141114-story.html[/url:2erwzmse]

Pay particular attention to the 7th paragraph: [quote:2erwzmse]Since August, [i:2erwzmse]bloggers[/i:2erwzmse] in Russia with more than 3,000 followers must register with the Moscow's mass media regulatory agency and conform to rules applied to larger media outlets.[/quote:2erwzmse] Is it a coincidence that no bug reports have been reviewed in what appears to be in this same time frame (August)?

The discussion is now continuing mostly in Russian branch of the forum. We determined the source of the trouble. It is not connected with the location (as I previously thought). It's about the creation time of the object. This bug affects objects created after the first week of November. These objects have some error in database description that makes them unable to be connected with photo data. Now we are also awaiting for the reaction of admins. It really became very slow in the past time.
So there is no trouble adding photos to objects crated before November 2014. Only newer objects suffer from this bug. I'll write here when it's fixed (or more precisely [i:pb7w9795]if[/i:pb7w9795] it's fixed).

Please also consider the following:

[color=#0000BF:dvhyo2r7]The State Duma [i:dvhyo2r7](Parliament) [/i:dvhyo2r7]of the Russian Federation, as of July 4, 2014, adopted in the second and third reading a bill mandating that the Internet personal data of Russian nationals [b:dvhyo2r7]must be physically stored only on the territory of Russia[/b:dvhyo2r7].
The bill dictates to record, organize, store, update and remove personal data of Russian nationals in databases located within the Russian territory, also making it necessary to specify the exact information about the location of such databases. [/color:dvhyo2r7]

Of course, it will take time to enact the bill, but nonetheless...
Will this affect Wikimapia directly or indirectly (and to what extent), who knows?

P.S. Now Wikimapia servers (not the office itself, which is in Moscow), as you may know, are located/registered here:

I suppose, even if they declare that Earth is the center of the universe, and Sun and stars rotate around it, it will not change much in natural course of things. The same is with this declaration. It's very sad that such unskilled people work in the system that creates laws for the whole country. And, by the way, there is no personal data stored in WM - no passport data, no full address of a person or something like that. Name, login and email can not be qualified as such data.
By the way, I managed to contact the developers team and reported the bug (it is a bug indeed). They promised to fix it as soon as possible.
