Error: "You may not upload with the key parameter"

[k4lim]

I just set everything up but somehow my secret key won't get accepted. I tried test as secure_key but when I test the shareX config, I get the You may not upload with the key parameter error.

My config file:

return [
    /* This is a secure key that only you should know, an added layer of security for the image upload */
    'secure_key' => 'test',

    /* This is the url your output will be, usually http://www.domain.com/u/, also going to this url will be the gallery page */
    'output_url' => 'https://sharex.domain.me/u/',

    /* This request url, so the path pointing to the uplaod.php file */
    'request_url' => 'https://sharex.domain.me/upload.php',

    /* This is a redirect url if the script is accessed directly */
    'redirect_url' => 'https://domain.me/',

    /* This is a list of IPs that can access the gallery page (Leave empty for universal access) */
    'allowed_ips' => [],

    /* Page title of the gallery page */
    'page_title' => 'ShareX Gallery',

    /* Heading text at the top of the gallery page */
    'heading_text' => 'Uploading Site',

    /* Delete file option (true to enable, disabled by default) */
    'enable_delete' => false,

    /* Show image in tooltip  (true to enable, disabled by default) */
    'enable_tooltip' => false,

    /* Show link to download all files as .zip (Untested with large archives of files) */
    'enable_zip_dump' => false,

    /* Generate random name (true to enable, disabled by default) */
    'enable_random_name' => true,

    /* Select lenght of random name (10 symbols by default) */
    'random_name_length' => 10,
];

Can you ensure your shareX side of the config is correct, use the auto downloader available from, https://sharex.domain.me/u/

Ensure you use the test options within shareX first

[k4lim]

Yes, I used the generated-config in ShareX. Using the test button in shareX gives me the same error.

Very odd, seems like your post data isn't hitting the site, but it looks set fine in your config.

I suppose you could try trigger a manual request with post man with the key and see if you get a response.

Make sure your webserver isn't redirecting around in a way that would remove post data too?

[k4lim]

I just tried if my nginx configuration is handling GET/POST at all and it seems like it works just fine.

test.php : <?php print_r($_GET); ?>

Call: https://www.sharex.domain.me/test.php?key=test

Response: Array ( [key] => test )

If I try to call the shareX script directly however, I get the same error as above: https://www.sharex.domain.me/upload.php?key=test

Could it have something to do with #47?

I'm having the same issue over here. Tried it all.

[JoeGandy]

Very odd, @freejstnalxndr Are you also going through https + nginx?

[justinlevinedotme]

@JoeGandy https + apache. I tried getting rid of my cert and uploading it through http. Still no luck.

I ended up using https://github.com/Inteliboi/ShareX-Custom-Upload and it worked fine. Maybe it has something to do with the upload.php? I am sure you could probably modify it to work with this, but then again I'm not amazing with PHP , so you would know better whether it'd work or not.

Thanks for your fast response.

[JoeGandy]

Okay yeah its definitely a change I made recently causing the issue. Will keep looking into it, glad you've found something that worked

[JoeGandy]

@DJkikisa @Natfan

Are either of you two able to reproduce?

[JoeGandy]

Hi I've just confirmed functionality is working,

I have a site set up with https, using the u/ custom directory I have a 301 redirect from http version of the site to https

I download the config generated by the web ui

Test an image upload which works. If yo have anymore details on how to reproduce let me know.
