Upload Behavior Between Browsers

I was having issues with uploads from different browsers (Chrome and Firefox) so I did a test uploading a single file.

- IE8 worked fine (as did IE9 for that matter).

- A chrome upload results in the progress bar going all the way across then we get an error:

"An error occurred:

401"

and the file is not written to the disk

- A FireFox upload results in the progress bar going all the way across, then we are prompted to login again.  Once we login the file is successfully uploaded.  (I imagine this is what happens with Chrome as well, we just aren't prompted to login again)

I added the following to our web.config as another post made it seem relevant:

  <location path="filevistacontrol">
    <system.web>
      <authorization>
        <allow users="*"/>
      </authorization>
    </system.web>
  </location>

but it didn't make a difference with this issue.

How can we get the other browsers to upload properly/like IE?

Adobe Flash plugin for non-IE browsers does not support Http Authentication properly so you need to enable "Anonymous Authentication" only for FileVista application in IIS.

Just switch your "default upload method," to "Browser. 

Log into FileVista, click administration, then Application Settings button, and this setting is on the "Folder Browsing" tab.
