Your not posting any error or links?

Main Index - Omanforum Classifieds

I do not see anything specifically wrong with your classifieds and I see you have had users uploading successful ads even as new as today.

Go to my classifed section and click on the services. I just uploaded a service (photography services), as you can see, the photo is not showing? even though I uploaded one?

what size files are you uploading looks to me like your using GD2 to process images and your server is freaking out from a huge file upload. If you have imagemagick on the server that might help.

I think if you upload a smaller image you might find that it works. GD2 can not handle large image sizes.

I tried uploading a file check your permissions on your data and uploads directories make sure they are 777 permissions at every level. Make sure the path is correct in global options for your uploads and data directories.

The permission are 777 , directory path is correct, still problems though?

With the error I get there can only be 3 possible issues

1. permissions are wrong

2. path is wrong

3. safe mode is on which means basically number 2 your path is wrong because the directory does not exist.

Your resolution would be to check and see which numeric directories do not exist under data which should be there like for instance cat 8 which is services should have folders under an 8 directory but yours does not exist

I think its working now, dont ask me what I did I do because I dont know really. I just uploaded a fresh file of image-inc-php. After several attempts it worked. Does that make sense?

Chuck S · April 1st, 2011, 07:24 AM

well you fixed one of the three issues I said and that has nothing to do with image-inc.php

your directory did not exist before now it does that is why it works.

But isnt the directory should be created automatically?. Or maybe somethig happened during installation. I had to create the directory individually for each section!

While we are this thread

The ads on the featured vbulletin homepage. Is there I way, I can decide which ad goes there and STICK it. For example, they maybe a user would pay a premium to keep their ad there for a longer time, something like that?

You would have to alter the plugin to do something like that. As far as payment it is not based on duration.
