Thumbs not regenerating.

[cowlishaw]

Any help is appreciated.

Thumbs are not regenerating since I switched hosts, and tranferred Pixelpost. I also went and uploaded a test photo, and tried to use the 12cropimage function. I get warning errors when trying to do both. Could this be a bug? Everything else is working.

MY Installation Info:


Host Information
PHP-version 4.3.11 (Pixelpost's min requirement: PHP version 4.3.0 )
MySQL version 4.0.24-standard (Pixelpost's min requirement: MySQL 3.23.58)

GD-lib bundled (2.0.28 compatible) with JPEG support

Server software Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.3.11 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b

EXIF Pixelpost is using exifer v1.5 for EXIF information.

what is the warning?

mostly these problems are not a bug, but caused by configuration of the server and that we must find out 8)

I get these two warning errors for every image when trying to regenerate them:

Warning: imagejpeg(): Unable to open '../thumbnails/thumb_2005071917310944_toroweap1.jpg' for writing in /home/talking1/public_html/photoblog/includes/functions.php on line 92

Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted in /home/talking1/public_html/photoblog/includes/functions.php on line 94

[Connie]

but you can upload images?
only thumbnails don't work?

try this:
connect with your FTP programme to the /thumbnails-directory

check again the setting:
directory: CHMOD 777
files in the directory as well 777

read the forum postings, this problem occured many times, you will find at least 5 or more postings when you use the search and search for

Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted in

[cowlishaw]

Okay, I went and checked through Smart FTP, and /images and /thumbnails folder are chmoded to 777. Do all the individual images files need to be chmoded to 777?

After checking folders, I'm still having same problem.

Thanks for your help this far. I tried running the search, but when I click on discussion topics, I get a 404 forbidden error.

[Connie]

yes, the files in the folders need also be "chmodded"

this 404 is strange, I must check this out, but you will find postings in the "PixelPost Help"-forum for further information..

Thanks Connie....

do you get a timeout warning? maximum executiontime exceeded?

[cowlishaw]

Heres the warning that I get after clicking on the searched topics:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /forum/viewtopic.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Regarding the chmodding of every file in my directory, does that mean I have to manually chmode 58 thumbnails and 58 images, individually. Because it will not let me do more then one at a time. I'm wandering is the permissions were reset to default when I transferred them to the new server? Am I right or wrong?
