New categories upload issue

[DefenceTalk.com]

Hi,

I created new categories today and tried uploading pictures in it.

However, the pictures would not upload and get this error:

Error creating watermarked original! Error code: 1

I can upload same pictures in other categories, also uploaded pics just last night, all fine.

The new categories do not show up when i check the data folder in ftp.

Whats going on? Is there a category limit or something? I don't think so but...

This is regarding version 6.1.

You can send an ftp account through the contact us link

Have you checked to make sure your server paths are correct?

Have you checked to make sure safe mode is off in PHP?

Basically if you create a category there should be a numeric data directory under your install.

To answer your questions:

YES

YES

I can't see the directory (numeric) under FTP but when logging on to the server through SSH, I can see the directory under the data folder.

What could it be? Permissions / ownership issue?

[Chuck S]

I cant say but the directory should be 777

If you turn off watermarking does it work?

what is in the watermark field for that category under edit categories it should be blank.

Okay fixed.

The path had "1" in it. I don't know how it got there but after removing, the picture uploaded just fine.

THANK YOU!!!
