Hi, Sebastian,

I could reproduce it.

Probably you got this error message when uploading the survey:
"Fehlende Umfrage-Dateien
Einige Umfrage-Dateien konnten nicht ..."


with the parameters of the file-upload question.

If you answer "Continue?" with "No"
you see a red icon on the interface.
Click and follow the instructions. (more or less: submit error message and survey url to support@offlinesurveys.com)

Best regards
Joffm

I'm using the foto upload question type and it basically all works fine (taking a foto in the survey, uploading it: see here)

Unfortunately, we can't do the file upload without asking for FTP access. The file upload function however is set up to mimic LimeSurvey's browser file upload (if you provide the FTP with access to the exact folder: ../limesurvey/upload/surveys/<surveyid>/files. You will be able to see your files as if they were uploaded using the browser, you can access the files from LimeSurvey responses page. )

The standard file upload is disabled... We don't have a single use case to support it (we can't find real use to uploading files on an offline survey.) If you have a valid use case, please share it with us and we will try to support it accordingly.

Personal request: Please help us by answering if the fix works for you or not (referring to the DateTime question post)

Regards,
Askoura


But I cannot add a title to the foto although I enabled this option...?

I just followed the instructions for Android multimedia questions. But when taking the survey i cannot add a title or a comment to the taken picture. Taking the picture and syncronicing the data works fine (the fotos are saved in the folder ../limesurvey/upload/surveys/<surveyid>/files when you provide ftp access accordingly..

Is it actually irrelevant what type of question I choose in the question menu when using the script for the foto question type? That would explain that it's not possible to add a title or comment (these are options in file upload question type)?

It would be helpful to provide a title to the foto, because the collected data in the survey refers to retail shops. In order to assign the data to the taken fotos that would be necessary, as there is no access to the files from LimeSurvey responses page (it says file was not found). Or am I missing something?
