Urgent help!! orig_files not working properly

[Hanna.]

Hi, I need quick help with an issue Ive never had before. So I use orig_files and I use watermarking on both fullsize pix and normal_ pix. When I go via admin tools to update the orig_file in order to the other files (thumb,normal and fullsize) to get updated when running admin tools I get a double watermark. see here: http://rachelbilson.org/photos/displayimage.php?album=14&pid=171#top_display_media

and the fullsize gets 2-3 layers of my watermark (source to fullsize: http://rachelbilson.org/photos/albums/Photoshoots/2013/Matthias%20Vriens-McGrath/002.jpg)

My files and albums are CHMODed to 777. How do I fix this so the orig_files is always number one when running admin tools

Please help

How it should be is this: http://rachelbilson.org/photos/displayimage.php?album=18&pid=291#top_display_media

but as soon as I run admin tools on this too the watermark freaks out like in my first post here. :'(

The orig_  files are created only if watermarking is enabled in config. Read here http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=74182.0
If  watermarking was not enabled in config when you upladed  some image, then those images do not have a orig_ copy. They have just normal_  (If Create intermediate pictures is enable in Config) and the real image.
When you choosed Which files to watermark: Both, coppermine watermaked normal_ and real image (full size image).

I think that you did not have watermarked enabled when you uploaded 002.jpg and now Admin Tools do not have orig_ to update thumb_, normal_ and full size. He can not use full size because you watermarked that too.
Look in Matthias Vriens-McGrath album and see if orig_002.jpg is there.

Yes that's the thing. I have clean orig_files in each album (no tags). I recently moved to new servers and started to have this issue. The orig_files only works per album if I remove all other files and it should not be like that. When I in the future update all albums I dont want dubble tags on my pix and I'm not going in each folder to remove all files in order to keep fullsize and normal_ and then update per album in coppermine.

I feel like this is a setting somewhere in server matter, like switch on switch off. Because befoe orig_files would be the first thing getting picked up when I update via admin tools. So I need serious help here because I have galleries of 60,000 pix (www.kristinpictures.com) and orig_files has to work properly.

Seems to me the orig files end up getting a tag whenever I update the albums with pix in them... not good. How do I solve this

No this was never solved. first time with untagged images works fine but already the second time around the orig_files turns tagged too.

the fullsize gets 2-3 layers of my watermark (source to fullsize: http://rachelbilson.org/photos/albums/Photoshoots/2013/Matthias%20Vriens-McGrath/002.jpg)

If I try to access the backup file, I get an error page: http://rachelbilson.org/photos/albums/Photoshoots/2013/Matthias%20Vriens-McGrath/orig_002.jpg

Make sure if the backup files actually exist. If so, check the permissions.
