Regular upload and any size picture.

For pics that are too small I get a different message.

The message I get is:

My suggestion would be make sure your files and user directories are 777 and the path is off.

Is safe mode on in php?

no safemode ... checking user and files now but pretty sure they are 777

tommac2 · May 17th, 2010, 06:27 PM

OK ... what I did was had to do chmod -R 777 to users and now it works.

Chuck S · May 18th, 2010, 07:30 AM

yep glad setting permissions worked.

Chuck, can this script function without those directories having 777 permissions? Aren't there security issues with having the directory permissions as such?

Chuck S · June 28th, 2010, 11:05 AM

well there are not security issues if you are running secure software and not code hacks. its a complicated issue and I am a software geek not a server tech. I will say what I know.

As far as 99.9% of servers out there the directories have to be 777 if you want files to be uploaded to them. Look at vbulletin as well as our site and you will see we all suggest 777 for certain directories. Thats because your upload files to data and uploads. Same thing would go in vbulletin for the attachments, signaturepics or customavatars directories.

You would have to ask your host if there is a way to upload files to a directory that is NOT 777. There is a way to do it but most all hosts are not setup like this hense all the sites out there like us and vb suggest you set directories to 777.

Hy there,

I need to fix an error done from an update to this last version

Someone did update and did wrong now it not working upload part.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3323250/Uplo...%20Gallery.jpg

I have zip file for upload I plan to overwrite but...
I did notice at upload I need to select last version installed.
How or from where I can find that info?

Or how you suggest to solve this?

Chuck S · August 17th, 2010, 10:58 PM

what exactly is your error? Your print screen does not show me anything abnormal here.

mihaiachim · August 18th, 2010, 04:58 AM

Sorry,
When I click on Upload Photos is redirect to
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3323250/Uplo...%20Gallery.jpg

I expect to see this:
PhotoPost PHP Photo Gallery Support

Or I think this is what I need
http://www.photopost.com/photopost/uploadphoto.php

What I do not understand here?
Please advice

P.S. Just realize something is missing in that first image link I put in here.

mihaiachim · August 18th, 2010, 05:57 AM

I think this is the error

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3323250/error.JPG

Why is under comments that java script? Is Ok?

Chuck S · August 18th, 2010, 06:14 AM

Try turning off the flash uploader but my main question would be why does it look like that with you turning the flash uploader on and the most logical answer would be that you have not uploaded all the files being that you recently upgraded so you can always reupload all the files and the issue should be corrected.

Yes someone did an update before me and I have to solve this

I can't find where to turn off flash uploader

Also I have this zip file photopost702.zip I did put all files on a WAMP local server also MySQL and I did over-write and still got that error

I want to run over that upgrade.php but Can't find actual version...

Please advice

Thanks a lot for your attention

Where I can disable this option MySQL?
I did not find a record with/

Enable Flash uploader?
Selects flash uploader if user is registered and flash is installed. As a 3rd party plug-in, this option is not supported by PhotoPost support.

You have not ran your upgrade script!!!

Run the upgrade and select the upgrades from the version you where running forward.
