Destination directory albums/albums/ is not writable by the script !

[Englyst]

I get the error in the subject when tryin gto upload images, either as admin or registered user. The folder permissions should be ok!

Destination directory albums/albums/ is not writable by the script !

File: /hsphere/local/home/halfi/skaarberg.dk/db_input.php - Line: 242

Anyone seen this?

I don't think that the permissions are OK, this is a very common error that hints on permission issues. If you're absolutely sure that permissions are set up correctly, take a look at the ownership (CHOWN).

Ok, thanks. I'll check it again.

Hi again.

I've checked up on the permission properties but still it gives me the same error. Was wondering why it writes the path "albums/albums/" ?? That just doesn't seem like being in existence

Do you have albums/albums specified as your albums directory in your config settings?  That's the only way it would be trying to write to that directory.

My settings look allright:

This is taken from the config page:

The album directory * = albums/
The directory for user files * = albums/

Ahhh, fixed it! I put userpics/ into the user files directory and it now works I don't know why it was set to albums/ in the first place..
