Data Folder Issue

[Teepeg]

Running 8.22 PP and vB 4.2.0

After upgrading to this version of PP, i was getting errors such as this one ...

Content visible to verified customers only.

But for some reason it wasn't creating the 503 Folder? To cure the issue i had to create the folder and add the sub folders to allow me to upload .. Do you know if this issue has happened before??

Cheers ...

Not really an issue with the code if your folders are not being created I would think. It sounds like a very familiar thing.

I would suspect maybe safe mode is on on the server that would explain why directories are not created or your server paths are wrong. That is where I would start at.

Make sure permissions on your uploads and data folders are 777 permissions recursively then try creating a new category is the directory and all subdirectories created? if safe mode is off they should be.

Don't actually know what happened as a new category created a new folder? Also all is well now since manually creating the 503 folder ....

Thanks for response ....

well if that is the case things worked fine. Maybe your server had a hiccup do not know but the reason you had an issue is the directory did not exist. I can only say that when we create a category the data folder is created.
