Hello everyone,
Recently updated and avatars fail to upload under the 2.5.5 profile user interface (uploaded as webmaster).

Getting the
Errors Returned While Uploading file: something.jpg Invalid image file
message.

-Image size limit is 35Kb. 120 x 120. Tried jpg,gif, and png "valid" images in compliance with these limits.
-Target folders exist and paths are correct.
-All chmods are set correctly (in and out of root).
-No special .htaccess settings.
-Avatars enabled under user system preferences
-Avatars enabled under group rights settings

But still craps out.

Whats up with this?

I assume this means that you have chmod-ed the /uploads and /uploads/avatars directories too?

Do you have the same failure if you try and upload the avatar through the System control panel (System -> Avatars)?

Have you turned on debug to see if there are any errors?

hey zyspec,

Yes -avatar folders and everything recommended at install.

Yes -same failure for both modes, however under avatar admin interface, it says the usual database updated and LOOKS like it completed, but ftp sees no such file under declared path of xoopspath/uploads/avatars/

Yes -debug mode w/popups enabled. No popups occur when this error is received. I will know if anything is in the php error log shortly.

Also just reinstalled profiles module but same result.

1- do you have any error_log file inside the profile module?
2- do you install protector? disable protector and see if it cause error.

Thanks.
Found no logfiles. What path is the debug mode log stored under?

Yes, I did turn off protector even before I opened this thread (to disable bad upload feature). Forgot to list it with the other things I tried above. Just tried it again but....

same error.

The message indicates it is seeing them as a invalid file. Is there somewhere that filetype extensions get declared (i.e. jpg|gif|png)? Maybe something is not set there? I did not find any related settings so far.

yes. Your issue is strange and now i can find that it is like this issue:
https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=348793
class/uploader.php

follow from this function:
function &getErrors($ashtml = true)
    {
        if (!$ashtml) {
            return $this->errors;
        } else {
            $ret = '';
            if (count($this->errors) > 0) {
                $ret = '<h4>' . sprintf(_ER_UP_ERRORSRETURNED, $this->mediaName) . '</h4>';
                foreach ($this->errors as $error) {
                    $ret .= $error . '<br />';
                }
            }
            return $ret;
        }
    }

So, is there a fix? I'm having the same issues as the original poster here.
