"No new file was found" message after FTP new files...

[Joachim Müller]

no, I think it's time to contact your webhost, trying to create a tmp folder's just a last straw.

Ask them about open_basedir restriction.

Just so I understand the situation...

Coppermine is trying to create a temporary directory called 'tmp' using PHP code/function 'open_basedir' but it can't for some reason due to restrictions.. correct?

not exactly. Coppermine is trying to open a file handle with the function opendir(), but isn't allowed to. For details, refer to http://www.php.net/manual/de/function.opendir.php and http://www.php.net/features.safe-mode
Most important is the error message posted above when the function is being executed (<?php $handle = opendir('/albums/gaugau'); ?>). In other words: tell them "if I use opendir(), I get the error XXX".

Gau...

Opened a support call with my hosting server and gave them the error.  I created a PHP file called test.php with your opendir code to reproduce the error...

They changed it to the full server path and it does not give that error.

path = /home/stlpc/public_html/pictures/albums/BBQ_2004

Script is here...
http://www.stlpreludeclub.com/pictures/test.php

I tried playing around the configurations and it still doesn't work...

OK, when I try to upload I get a different error:

Failed to create directory albums/albums/10006 !



Warning: mkdir(albums/albums/10006): No such file or directory in /home/stlpc/public_html/pictures/upload.php on line 2192

This seems to be a permissions error again, this time with mkdir (this creates a new sub-directory). Check CHMOD settings once again and report back.

It's has 777 permissions... (all files, all folders starting from 'pictures' folders all the way down.

[Joachim Müller]

try 755, your server seems to be configured "exotically".

Now most of the folders are 'Not writable" when I go into the batch add files.

Thanks for you help Gau. Let me know if you want full FTP permissions to help track this problem down and I'll give you access.

urm, I think it's likely that your webhost has configured your server, so you're not able to run mkdir at all. Could you ask them for support again, asking if you can use mkdir and what CHMOD settings you will need for that?

Thanks

They made some changes but I still can't get the batch add to work.  Gau, do you want to try the mkdir again?
