FTP upload returns "Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 1"

[totalcollection]

I got this, but don't know how to do it - which folder do I have to cmod? Is this automated?

Warning: the script can't write in this directory, you need to change its mode to 755 or 777 before trying to add the files !

I am trying to add files to:

Code Select Expand

Put files of "Windows/Windows Se7en/Widescreen Resolution/" into Windows
but I received error from

Code Select Expand

Windows/Windows Se7en/Widescreen Resolution/ 1680X1050.jpg Windows click for details or to reload
when I click for detail: Error executing ImageMagick - Return value: 1

Any idea, please?

PS: Using HTTP upload is fine.

There is no CHMOD command on Windows. Did you read the permissions section of the docs? Did you read the FAQ articles that are related to ImageMagick?

[totalcollection]

Don't read me wrong. Windows here is just my album name.
I check the Cmod of Albums folder and it is set to 777 already.

PS: I used to run into this problem in which Cmod is not automated in Wordpress plugin automatic update that I had to do it manually. I wonder if this happens with Coppermine, too. The child directory seems not inherit the Cmod.

All uploaded folders/child folders under albums should be writable  (CHMOD 777 or 755)

As you suggested, I got to check the folders again, and noticed that all folders Cmod to 755. But the problem is when I check the property of each file there, it is 644. It doesn't matter how I tried to Cmod the folder, the files were still 644 till I got to Cmod the files, too.

How do we Cmod the folder and have the files inside inherit it?

Thanks in advance.

[Sami]

644 is ok for files
try to chmod folders to 777, maybe it works

[totalcollection]

Now trying again...
Will report back if this works.

[totalcollection]

It works, man it works!
Thx

[totalcollection]

Maybe I spoke too soon. Though the Cmod to 777 works, but if I tried to add a folder with more than 200 pictures, it just returned back to the search page.

Anyway, I tried to select only 50 pictures each time, but it returned the same result - turned back to the search page.

My folder structure:
albums/GameWallpapers10Packs\GameWallpapersPart1

Any help with this, plz?

PS: I tried again with .zip file, but it just showed the .zip file, not the pictures in it?

What you tried to do is not a feature of coppermine.

My folder structure:
albums/GameWallpapers10Packs\GameWallpapersPart1

Mind the usage of slash and backslash

If you need help, do exactly as suggested in the docs, section "asking for support on upload issues".

[totalcollection]

Opp, sorry for mistake of folder structure as I copied from the desktop.

Anyway, it is albums/GameWallpapers10Packs/GameWallpapersPart1

I have just tried one more time is to select only 1 file to be added, but it can't be done though I chose different albums. Then I tried with another folder in my ftp, and it works. Can this because of my folder structure?

Thanks and sorry for mistakes.

[Joachim Müller]

Then I tried with another folder in my ftp, and it works. Can this because of my folder structure?

Yes, maybe. Post a deep link to one of the files that you're having issues with. Avoid capitalization and special chars.

[totalcollection]

Here it is http://totalcollection.info/albums/game10packs/game01/

I tried removing cap, but still not work.
Can I send you the login info then, so you can see it in action?

[guanaco]

this is exactly as my issue posted. After selecting the files to be added in an album it returns to the searchnew.php page.

[Joachim Müller]

@guanaco: stick to your own thread.

@totalcollection: PM me a coppermine admin account and FTP access details please.

[totalcollection]

Thank you, PM sent.

[Joachim Müller]

Batch-adding files from folders where only a few files reside in works fine, while it doesn't work for folders that contain lots of pics. Your server is very slow - it takes ages to populate screens. I suggest adding less files into one folder (i.e. create sub-folders) and/or increasing the webserver resources by talking to your webhost about a more powerfull webserver setup (i.e. sign up for better webhosting).

[totalcollection]

Thx. Will try splitting those files.
Again, thanks so much for giving some of your time.
