Your profile information says Coppermine version: cpg1.4.x so I assumed that is what you are using.

You can check and change folder permissions with most FTP programs.

Yes , sure .. but i can't stay all time online for checking  .
So , i solved (hope) .
I made a new php page "chmod.php" :

Code Select Expand

<?php
$foldercheck = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])."/albums/edit";
chmod("$foldercheck", 0755);  
?>

And in upload.php

After // Call basic functions, etc.

Code Select Expand

require('chmod.php');

I hope that this solution solve lots of request for automatic chmod check and change .
On my host , i've tested , it runs well .

Thanx anb bye .

Yes, that is definately a work around; however, your folders should not be changing permissions automatically. Either your FTP program is changing them without you specifiying it to do so (very bad) or your web-server is changing the permissions (also very bad). CPG does not change permissions of the 'album' or 'edit' directories at all. This is why upon installation you are required to change them. I run a secured web-server with approx 30 CPG. I have encountered this permission problem twice with my clients and both times there FTP software was responsible for it.

Hope this helps,
