Problem after server move...

[titodj]

I just moved my forum and gallery to a new server, and everything was working fine until you try to upload a picture...
It takes the picture and gives the user the "your image has to be aproved mssg" but I never get to see images to aprove??
I tought no one had uploaded images... But the thing is that I dont get to see images pending approval. Any ideas??

Just tryed to upload a picture (I dont need moderation) and get the following mssg:

$idname no especificado. Si seguiste una liga válida por favor notifica al webmaster

Rough translation
$idname unspecified. If you followed a valid link please notify the webmaster

CHMOD 777 your folders and subfolders that contain your images. When you upload to an webhost the access rights are usaly changes to default 644

Ex: /home/yoursite/public_html/gallery/files

If you do not have a FTP program that will do recursive directories try SmartFTP.

Download a program called SmartFTP. It has an option for CHMOD and recursive directories.

Or:

CHMOD -R 777 /path/to/your/gallery/files

Syntax of the chmod command is the following:

prompt> chmod [options] permissions file[s]

The word "chmod" should be entered all in lowercase letters. Options can be:

* -R, set permissions recursively
* -f, "forced" or silent mode
* -v, "verbose", show information for every file processed
* -c, show information only if changes are made to the file

Permissions could be one of the following:

* Octal numeric format, with a leading zero like "0644"
* Octal numeric format, without a leading zero like "644"
* Text form like "a+r", "u=rwx" or "o-w", you can use several comma separated text form permissions

File[s] can be either

* relative path to the file like "file.pl"
* absolute path to the file like "/var/spool/mail/paul"
* several space separated files like "file.pl /var/spool/mail/paul"
* file name mask like "*.html" or "*"
