Error when I try and upload a new image
« on: May 10, 2006, 02:27:44 PM »
I have tried uploading some new clipart recently, and I have been getting this error

Error uploading image file: Betty_Boop.gif
Betty_Boop.gif: Copy error. Please check the directory permissions.

No database entry!


I have checked the directories on my server, and the media folders are all chmod 777. What could be causing the problem? Thanks in advance

Well, my safe mode is off, so that wasnt the problem. I managed to upload the image when I created the directory by hand in the media and thumbnail folder. Is there a way for the system to automatically create the directories when uploading images? It will be rather tedious to have to create directories on the server each time I want to upload new images

If 4images did not create folder automaticaly, that only mean you did not set proper permissions. Refer to docs/installation.txt for more details.

The thumbnails show up fine int he gallery, but when I click on one, the larger image doesnt appear at all on the details page, like this

I looked at settings, and dont see anything about this sort of thing

Yup, it does. Since I just did the upgrade, I forgot to change the gif.html and jpeg.html files and remove the fixed width/height code. They appear fine now. I just need to re-edit them to where I had them before

Im going to have to keep playing with the directory settings to see why folders arent being created when I try an upload

Well, in the chmod, the data directory, and all the contents within, are 777. Should something outside that be set also?
