Title: [Closed]: Newly uploaded images cannot be deleted.
Post by: sykofangurl on September 25, 2008, 09:40:57 PM
Hello,

I have this error coming in when I try to delete one or all of the pictures in an album:

Directory 'albums/arjuna/chris hawken/' is not writable, files can't be deleted.

(I also get the same error when I try to simply delete the entire album so I could just start over.)

I researched solutions and errors on the "docs" page.

I searched the board for similar problems but did not see a solution.

I created the "test" user. User: test Password: test

Link to my gallery: http://74.220.219.70/~okunenan/gallery/index.php (http://74.220.219.70/~okunenan/gallery/index.php)

I also checked my permissions (A, albums, edit, userpics, arjuna, chris hawken all set to 777) and modified the settings in the maintenance section to "debug" mode. I also made sure the file setting was to "1", the URI to "0" and the number of boxes to "fixed". So I think I have completed all the necessary steps to getting help. Well, except for the magic word. Please.

Here's the "debug info":

USER:

USER DATA:

    [user_id] => 1

Nobody ask for your "debug info".

QuoteI searched the board for similar problems but did not see a solution.
Did you? I found 12 pages searching just for "is not writable".

Read this:

Why does everyone have to be so sarcastic and crappy to users here who need help? I spent an hour searching for a solution to the issue before asking for help. And I primarily did that because I noticed the majority of responses from the "supporters" to other users were almost mean or uncalled for.

FYI - I most certainly DID do a search, as per the doc rules, for an error like mine. Yes, there are several situations "almost" like mine, but no one seemed to have the exact same, or very similar problem. I tried a few of the suggestions, but 99% of them didn't apply to my issue.

Also, I read the entire article about permissions, of which I did have some knowledge of so it was easy for me to understand. I immediately thought it would be the correct fix, but I changed the permissions according to the help article without any result. I mentioned that in my first post.

But don't worry about it. I will try another forum where I and others are not treated rudely, especially when I tried to follow every rule to the "T". Guess I'm not perfect, but then again, neither are you, obviously.

No, nobody of us are perfect. Anyway, I just tried to help you. Good luck.  ;)
