Hi,

First, let me say I did take the time yesterday to read through a good portion of the forum looking for this type of error. I also followed the instructions completely, all my permissions with my host (Servage) are set at 777...all my configurations in Coppermine are set as instructed.

All day yesterday I was getting the error The previous file could not be placed. You have successfully placed all the files.

But now today?? The error message has changed to:
Impossible to move Sword1.jpg to albums/userpics/10001/ !
File:/mounted-storage/home6/sub003/sc13591-HAHZ/our-family-history.org/gallery/db_input.php - Line: 355

Here is the website, temp userid and password

Thank you, and look forward to hearing from you.

Hello,

Well I figured it out on my own, go figure and I'm a complete newbie to this php stuff. Anyway I added the "define('SILLY_SAFE_MODE', 1);" to the beginning of the file config.inc.php and everything nows works fine. 

So you mark this one as solved. Thanks again...
