[SOLVED] "Error uploading image file:" Problem!
« on: July 15, 2007, 02:05:20 PM »
Problem solved! Check my last post.




Well...

At frist I want to say that of course I used the search engine, and... found a few topics describing the same problem, but on none is an answer to solve that problem. Also I'll try to give as many informations as I can.

So on.. the ULR to the gallery is www.swbf-gallery.at.tt (I know.. skin isn't finished yet)
The used 4images version is the newest; v1.7.4.

Well, the problem is, that if I (alias admin) try to UPLOAD (not give the link of an already uploaded images) an image (yes.. size, file type etc. fits) in one of the newer categories (e.g. "Star Wars Related"), I just get an error exactly saying "Error uploading image file:" (error appears, where the {msg} tag is placed).
If I try exactly the same in my oldest category, it works totally; image is uploaded and linked.

Trying to give the link of an already uploaded image works everywhere fine.

Well, then I created a new user and tried the same that I did as admin..:

I (alias member) went to a newer category, tried to add an already uploaded image. That far it worked totally, so I locked in an admin; entered admin cp and validated image. And.. the image was added...

Now time to try to upload the image; old image deleted, re-logged in as member etc. After clicking on Submit, I got the same message saying the image has to be validated.. So on I went into the admin cp again and saw the image with thumbnail. I selected validate and then on Submit. Guess what came out?

Error adding image: [image-title] ([image-name])

...

Same I got whenI had selected the default skin instead of my one.
And yes, CHMOD 777 and 666 is everywhere selected where it's supposed to be..

Also to say: On my old host, freehostia.com, I didn't have that problem, but a very slow and often crashing server instead.


Pls help us to solve that problem finally!
Answers in English as well as German are welcome.

Hi,

delete the new catfolders in:
data/media and data/thumbnails

and after create new folders with your ftp software, then again "777"

Hello;
I have created an account on your site and have uploaded a picture to the cat #21 (Google Images).
Please try to activate it and check how it goes.

Hi.

Thank you at first for trying to help. I have received a mail saying there is another image waiting to be validated. So I went to the admin cp, selected Validate at your image and clicked on Submit. Guess what came?
Quote from: MyGallery
Error adding image: Black moon (black_moon.jpg)

 :evil:  :cry:

Delete not-validated images works as I have already tried it myself.

And after I tried to validate the image and after I got the error message, the image was still in the Validate images section available.

If you had uploaded the image in category #1, everything had worked quite fine. :?

Help! :cry:

----------

Well, then I created a new user and tried the same that I did as admin..:

I (alias member) went to a newer category, tried to add an already uploaded image. That far it worked totally, so I locked in an admin; entered admin cp and validated image. And.. the image was added...

So on I went into the admin cp again and saw the image with thumbnail. I selected validate and then on Submit. Guess what came out?

Error adding image: [image-title] ([image-name])

[EDIT 01]

Btw: I set in category #21 (Google Images) the direct upload as available for registered members!

Same error trying to upload a file in the cat #21.
Does your host (rapidspace.de) use some manager like Cpanel or Plesk?

:? If you got your question right, the answer would be Yes, Confixx Professional ( http://confixx.rapidspace.de/ ).

Does it provide a file manager, in wich you can see how are the permissions, without using your FTP software?

Yup, it does. I also used that to check if CuteFTP (only used to edit permissions) really the permissions, where it's supposed to be changed. And yes, all needed files/folders have permissions on 777 as the case may be 666. :?

Do new categories folders show the same user than the old ones in your file manager?

Well, finally the problem is solved! The problem was, that - if an image was directly uploaded, or validated - the category folder (e.g. 21 for the category with the ID 21) couldn't be created. The problem was solved by creating an folder with the correct number for each category (e.g. 1 - 24) in the data/media and the data/thumbnails folder; all with CHMOD 777 of course.

And a great cheers to manurom! We annoyed each other by spamming private message. :P jk
He told me to delete and re-create the category folders, though I didn't really know what he meant with cat folders, as I never had them. :P
On another free host I also had tried to upload images, and it worked there. When I took a look on the image's URL, I noticed that it was saved at data/media/1/[enter-image-name-here].[enter-file-type-here].


Anyway.. thank you all, especially manurom and KurtW. :P :lol:


Greeds,
