[MTOS-dev] List Assets breaks on one blog only

[Mike Klassen]

Thanks, Bruce. Chris looked further into this anomaly but we haven't figured
out what could have been crashing MT's asset management for the 2 blogs.

Just so everyone is aware of this problem, what happened is that on 2 of my
blogs (both are set to build templates statically) I tried to upload GIFs.
In both cases MT's asset manager crashed giving me a 500 error ("maximum
number of internal redirects reached").

The asset manager still worked fine on other blogs, both browsing and
uploading files (jpeg, pdf, png), provided they were not GIF format.

I went into PHPMyAdmin, found the offending assets in the mt_asset table by
searching ("youtube-button.gif"). I deleted the files right out of the
database, and now I can access MT's asset manager for those 2 sites again.

It would appear that MT is barfing b/c of the file format? I'll leave it to
the developers to figure this one out.
