category problem

[shockazulu]

Hi,

I had cpg1.2 all installed fine and working, and then I tried to integrate phpBB so I followed the instructions, got it working fine.. but then I decided not to integrate the forums.  I commented out the phpBB integration line and then restored my DB to use my old existing data...

So now, when I login as a user and upload media, the files are no longer being uploaded to a category number directory..

in other words...

/albums/userpics/10002/media.file     is what is it used to upload to

now it is uploading to

/albums/userpics/media.file

Is there a simple setting that I am missing that got set when I did the phpBB install to make it upload back to a category number?  thanks in advance for any help!

phpbb integration doesn't interfere with file structure, only with user management. Switching it on/off shouldn't have an impact on the path the files are stored in. If your gallery still wokrs I wouldn't care, as only the db has to "know" where your files are located, the human doesn't have to.

• Make sure you don't upload by ftp to "albums/userpics" (but to any other folder within "albums" you created)
• do not use dots in folder names!
• make sure that the path to userpics is correct in coppermine config ("The directory for user pictures")[/list:u]

I ended up just reinstalling the db from scratch and for some reason that did the trick.  I was still testing my code changes so it wasn't a big deal... thanks for the reply.
