Thanks for the hint, however, the parameter section gives this warning. ...

Flag to determine the storage type. A flag of 1 (true) will store the files in the database. If 0 (false) files are stored in the filesystem. ***This parameter should only be changed at package instance creation.***

The big question is... How do I change from 0 to true in a full file system? Will that crash the fileshare module?

Thanks

Hi all,

I am having the same problem. If for instance I wanted to keep the files stored in the filesystem, would this be possible?

Thanks

Jason and others,

We have an OpenACS install running 5-1-5 with file-storage package version 5.1.5d3. Files are stored in the filesystem not in DB. File versioning works fine for us just changing original file in /package/file-storage/www/view/index.vuh with the same file from HEAD.

Could you please try if it will work for you? Just download index.vuh from here

http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/*checkout*/openacs-4/packages/file-storage/www/view/index.vuh?rev=1.2

and copy this file as your file-storage/www/view/index.vuh working file.

Please, let me know if it worked for you. Thank you.
