Hi,
i allways got this problem
QuoteThe previous file could not be placed.
You have successfully placed all the files.
and the images dont upload to the server.
what is the problem?
The main problem is that you do not use the SEARCH.
Searching with "The previous file could not be placed" would have given you lots of threads dealing with this problem.
Such as http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=40623.0 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=40623.0). Silly_safe_mode is also talked about in the documentation if you need more info.
In fact, you should do exactly as suggested in the documentation, "upload troubleshooting" section. The error message you got is a generic one. The method discussed in the upload troubleshooting section of the docs should give you a detailed error message.
