BUG FIX - Optional File Attachment Module

[Sparky]

I've notified Alex of a small bug I found in the optional File Attachment/Upload Module.

This bug prevents the error message from printing when you exceed the allocated file size of 4 MB.

Instead of printing the message, "file too big, not saved (max size = 4 MB)",  the addfile subroutine aborts and the remainder of the ticket message is left blank.  Edit:  Ticket header is updated but Ticket message is left blank because the Ticket subroutine can't properly read it when generating the display.

The fix is simple:

In the latest version of the module (2.23) find line 109...

return '[%File%] '."$fno: $fname ".'[%too big, not saved%] ([%max size%] = '."$mz)\n";

Replace it with this...

return "File$fno: $fname ".'[%too big, not saved%] ([%max size%] = '."$mz)\n";

Thanks for the info, Sparky. Actually the addfile() completes just fine, but generates wrong message header. Nevertheless, the patch is exactly as described. You may also download an updated File Module from our web site.

Yes, I discovered this later.  Correcting my posting.
