MAX_FILE_SIZE size error on uploading a COUNTER5 file

[kfischer]

We have just updated to the 2020.09 release and have started testing the COUNTER5 functionality.

I have tried to upload a .tsv file provided by one of our libraries and receive the following error:

The uploaded file exceeds the MAX_FILE_SIZE directive that was specified in the HTML form

What I did:

• Usage Statistics module
• File Upload
• Select: Journal Requests (Excluding OA_Gold) (TR_J1) R5
• Choose .tsv file for upload

When I open the file in any editor it appears as tab separated text file as expected. The file size is 9,72 KB

In the source and help text I can see the limit should be 5 MB: File may not be larger than 5MB

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="5000000" />

Any help much appreciated!

We figured out that the counterstore directory didn't have the correct permissions.

The somewhat confusing error message is triggered by this bit of code and the move_uploaded_file failing:

  if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['usageFile']['tmp_name'], $targetPath)) {
    $page['status'][] = _("The file "). $pathInfo['basename'] ._(" has been uploaded successfully.")."<br />"._("Please confirm the following data:")."<br />";
  } else{
    header( 'Location: import.php?error=2' ) ;
  }

Maybe using a different error code than 2 or giving a specific error for this method failing would be a good fix here.

Just to confirm, we are getting the same error message when testing.
