Title: Upload error and all images gone!
Post by: Skipper on September 14, 2004, 06:53:30 PM
Hi all....urgent help required!!

I have just been told that there is an error upload when you click "upload file" on my gallery. http://www.emergencyvehicles.org.uk/gallery. And I get this error:

QuoteWarning: opendir(./albums/edit): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/emergen/public_html/gallery/upload.php on line 409

But that's not the worst part....while trying to fix the problem, I though i'd try by restoring the factory settings in the config bit, but didn't think it'd restore EVERYTHiNG!!

Now all the pictures are gone, although the thumbnail is there with a red cross in it.

Would I be best off just starting over?!

Thanks in advance!

You need to create a directory named 'edit' inside your albums directory on the server and give it write permissions. Your files are not really gone, you will need to change the default prefixes for resized and thumbnail pics in config back to what they were before the restore.
