Cannot upload avatar was created by Johnysnake

When users of my website try to upload a avatar (image) they get the message:
Profile image : The file exceeds the maximum size of 500 kilobytes

Even though, the file size is a lot lower.

Is there any solution to solve this? Or is it a bug?

Edit: I saw on the forums that the solution was to reinstall CB 1.9 ( www.joomlapolis.com/downloads/doc_details/451-community-builder-19-package ). But i just did and i still have the same issue. Users cannot upload a own image.

You need to download another CB 1.9 version and then reinstall.

what can I say .. it works for me.

Suggest you:

1. remove your existing CB 1.9 packages from your workstation (to make sure you are not in fact installing an older download)
2. Download again
3. Install again
4. Test

I had the same problem.

It occurs because of this error ("components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbcore/cb.core.php"):

Code:

if ( filesize( $value['tmp_name'] ) * 1024 > $maxSize ) {
    $this->_setValidationError( $field, $user, $reason, sprintf( CBTxt::T("The file exceeds the maximum size of %s kilobytes"), $maxSize ) );
    return false;
}

filsize() returns result in bytes and $maxSize is measured in kilobytes, so $maxSize has to be multiplied by 1024.
