Please help.
I get the following message upon completion of installation.

Hello per the installation instructions for classifieds the data and uploads directories as well as there subdirectories need to be set to CHMOD 777

[Johnbmtl]

Re:"data and uploads directories as well as there subdirectories need to be set to CHMOD 777"

I assumed that since the rest of the installation went well that the permissions were ok.

How or should I say where do I do that?

What FTP program do you use to upload files to your web server ?

Many FTP programs have the same options.
- Login to your FTP server
- goto /html/pp-classifieds/data folder (on many ftp programs you can right click the folder "data" and goto "Properties" or "CHMOD") Change it's value to 777.
- Do the same steps to "uploads" and sub-folders"

The files/folders you mentionned were not 777. I changed them but I still get the exact same error.

[Chuck S]

It is not the files it is the directories that much be 777. If you get this error still it is because the directories are not set writable

Double-checked. Data, Data1 and Data2 directories are all 777.
Am I missing something obvious such as a directory above those levels?

[Chuck S]

Is your $PP_PATH set in config-inc.php file set to this?

$PP_PATH = "/home/content/j/w/b/jwbabiakc/html/pp-classifieds";

Just a thought as if the directories are 777 there should be no errors

No it's not.

It's: $PP_PATH = "pp-classifieds";

[Johnbmtl]

No idea where the ""/home/content/j/w/b/jwbabiakc/html/pp-classifieds" came from.

[Chuck S]

On install we would grab the server path and it would be as I posted it looks to me like you altered yours on install to be just pp-classifieds and that is your issue.

Your $PP_PATH variable must be as I have wrote.

[Johnbmtl]

That's it!

Thanks for the great support!

Another problem when I try to add and ad with an image.

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/content/j/w/b/jwbabiakc/html/pp-classifieds/data2/1van.gif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/j/w/b/jwbabiakc/html/pp-classifieds/image-inc.php on line 53

[Chuck S]

In admin global options on your data path add a slash on the end /

Notice there is no slash between data and 2

[Johnbmtl]

FOund the problem.

Image problem was because GD2 was not selected in config.

[Johnbmtl]

Error keeps recurring:

[Chuck S]

Is your GD2 version 2.028 or higher?

Is the data/7 directory 777?

move_uploaded_file is pretty specific as it is saying permissions are not right

Is safe mode on on this server?

Link to phpinfo?

Data7 directory is 777

GD2 version is "bundled (2.0.28 compatible)"

Safe mode is off

A pdf with phpinfo is attached
