PhotoPost Community - View Single Post - Problem with Full SERVER PATH data directory

Charles_cz · February 19th, 2007, 05:14 PM

Hi every one. I am new user of PhotoPost nad I have some troubles with installation so I decided to ask.

First of all I am running IIS6 and server 2003 and PHP 5.1.4 on dedicated box.
I have installed PhotoPost
1. When I click on "Add Top Level Category > Add and edit new category properties > Add Category" I get this error:

Unable to create/write to C:Inetpubwwwrootfotogalerie/data/505! Check your data directory permissions before continuing.

The problem is that in "Global Options" I have a the path to data directory as this

C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/foto/galerie/data/

I think I have the permissions right but I think there is a problem with path to the data directory.

2. When logged as admin (created in VD 3.6.4 during installation) I can't upload any photos. When I click on "Upload photos" I get this error message
Sorry, you don't have permission to upload photos

Do I have to make any extra setting for uploading? I would think that as admin I should be able to do so without any extra settings.

Any suggestions? I am lost... Thanks Charles
