The previous file could not be placed.

[TheNostradamus]

I know this is probably a pain to keep reading but I got the same problem.

So far I have, read all the docs, made sure all permissions are set to 777, changed to debug mode and updated file/url upload box only but i get the same error when uploading....

PS: just to let you know, when I check the userpics folder, the pics ARE there?

give us a clue guys.....

Since you are new, or seem to be i welcome you to the support board. Be sure to read any stickies which have a title "board rules" etc.
Always, and i do mean always, Search before you Post. Most questions have already been answered before or partially and might answer your questions as wel.

In your case you could have searched with "The previous file could not be placed"  as search criteria and find this among lots of others threads about the same subject.

Also mentioned in the Documentation at 2.4

Have fun with CPG

yeah I did, I have checked the docs, done searches and read stickys but nothing really seems to fix it, I have also checked all permisions on Albums, Albums/userpics and album/edit directories to 777 AND 755, even tired "define ( 'SILLY_SAFE_MODE' , 1 ) ;" in the config.inc.php file, this also seems fine as it is on line 5.

Documentation says:

Check that at the beginning the the "include/config.inc.php" file, you have a line with : "define('SILLY_SAFE_MODE', 1);"

Meaning it should look like this

Code Select Expand

<?php
define('SILLY_SAFE_MODE', 1);

// Coppermine configuration file
Try editing your config.ini.php as such and see if it makes a difference.

And in the future please put all the info you have into a post in stead of half, saves us all a lot of time

Ok done that and got the same issue.....

Hi,

look in your config page if the Files and thumbnails advanced settings/Method for resizing images is set to GD2

Rigt, I have played around with the groups, This seems to have made a difference, I changed URL upload back to 1 saved than to 0 again, and now we seem to be getting somewhere.. thanks for your help so far.....

Cheers

I'm having some sudden problems with adding files to my galleries.  What "groups" did you change that seems to have solved the problem?

Start your own thread after having read the upload troubleshooting section of the docs. Do exactly as suggested there.
