Getting an error adding an image to a product

[mfbrowne]

Hello,

I am extremly new to VM, so please bear with me as I ask some pretty dumb questions.

I am trying to create a product, and when I try and assign an image I get the following error.

vmError: Sorry,It's not a valid media file

The image file is imagename.jpg, so I am totally confused on what I may be doing wrong.

I hope someone can assist me

Thanks

Mike

Mike,
PLEASE include your version of VirtueMart, Joomla and PHP in all posts. Is your image file corrupted? Can you give us the actual file name instead of a generic name?

Thanks!
