Title: Failed to create directory ../gallery/albums/../gallery/albums/userpics/10005 !
Post by: mattocean on November 20, 2006, 04:00:44 PM
Hi,

please help!

After I upload the file and choose a gallery I get the following message

Failed to create directory ../gallery/albums/../gallery/albums/userpics/10005 !

but I have set the premission to 777. For the directory GALLERY 777, for GALLERY/ALBUMS 777 and GALLERY/ALBUMS/USERPICS/ 777.

Where is the problem, I can't find it yet...

Thanks!

What paths have you set in config for albums and userpics?

what's wrong with the default paths ("albums/" and "userpics/")?

It is not the default. The default works. If you specify non-default folders then you need to create those folders yourself. Are you using some modified or unofficial version of Coppermine?

Thank you very much ;D I've changed the directory path to

albums/ and userpics/ and everything works fine now!

Thanks again ;)

SOLVED? how exactly....would of been very nice if you could of detailed the steps you took to solve this problem as i have the same problem.. but i didnt touch the "albums/" "userpics/" they are still in there original form.... i made a subfolder "album/family" in the coppermine directory using explore .. still didnt do anything in the batch add files deleted the family folder from that.. and ftp'ed added family folder.. repeated batch add files still nothing.. goin nuts here...LOL oh well will keep looking.

also the answers givin in here and are labelled "solved" could be added to the http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#upload_trouble section .. say like with the headings "Problem" "Solution" maybe .. just a thought.. :)
