Hello to all,

I am having a quick cart of about 280 categories and 800 products.

Recently I am not able to edit or add any pages or products. It just give me a blank page with no error.

However if i delete all the images under \files it work fine.
what could be the cause of the problem.

Is there a restriction on the number

We heard about this issue already. It is connected with server configuration.. Folder files/ have limit (number of files or size these files). Contact with server admin and he should help You..

Quick dirty hack:
put half of those images into a subfolder and then edit the db files to point to those paths (for example instead of path "product_pic1.jpg" you would have "xxx/product_pic1.jpg" -- the actual file path to half of those pics would be files/xxx/).

or try QC 3.1 and disable the files from server on page/product form
the setting is in administration > settings > options

So will upgrading to 3.1 solve the problem?

Beholder,you mentioned that i can change the path, does that means that i have to manually change the path?

I do not know, it was just a suggestion (about 3.1).

change path -> I do it via a custom script that erases the products and categories that have their number (ID) over 100, then generate a new ones from what is basically an excel file dump.
I do not know how you managed to put 280 categories and 800 products into quick cart, but if you did it by hand... well.. my condolences.

I had this problem with images and this helped me to solve it. Better upgrade it first, that's the clearer solution.
