I need to submit a zip file through the discussion forum. i've tried several times but it never uploads. the upload starts but around 30% it always stops and says "could not be uploaded". has anyone had this problem before? any advice or hints that may help in uploading?

Thanks

Does it have to be zipped? trying rezipping

i've tried uploading the file (un-zipped) and rezipping. i've tried from different computers, different browser. but it just wont upload :(

What file is it? try uploading on another computer

the zip file contains a .mp4 file. ive tried different computers, been trying since sunday... can't seem to figure out the problem. ive talked to the prof he recommend using a campus network. that's the only thing i haven't done yet (since im not near campus)

maybe it's the size of the mp4 there may be a file upload limit. And yea try campus their upload speed is faster too

Avenue has a rather small file size limit, 200 MB, if I remember correctly. If you are sending it to a specific person within the McMaster community, the regular e-mail system will accept a larger file.

maybe you could upload the zip file on a third party website such as mediafire and then post a link to that on the discussion boards?

i have emailed the project to the prof but he still wants it on avenue in a zip file or just the file on its own. i dont think he would accept the link. thanks for the suggestion though!

my zip file was only 40 mb

PROBLEM SOLVED: uploaded using campus network
