Banner Manager Image Permissions...

[andrewggrant]

First of all, Great software. I am amazed!

 

I have only one small question. I tried to search for this but didn't find anything that jumped out as answering this question. Please have patience.

 

In case you need to know, I am using a Mac with OS 10.3.4 running the standard Apache install and mySQL.

 

Here goes. Everything looks great under a standard install. The only thing that looks wrong is the Banner Manager.

 

When I open the Banner Manager, I see a wonderful graphic showing the utilization. There is also an error at the top indicating that the 'graphs' folder is not writable.

 

No problem. I change the perms to 770, in folder /Catalog/admin/includes/graphs, and the error goes away. Except for one problem. My nice looking graph now shows the text, "Text_Banners_Last_3_Days" at the top instead of the images that were previously there. If I change the graphs folder perms back to 750 then the graphics come back except now the error has also returned.

 

What have I done wrong? How can I fix this?

 

Thank you for your time,

 

Andrew

Have you set the CHMOD for /catalog/admin/images/graphs/ ? and for all files/subfolders for both directories?

[andrewggrant]

Yes. To be safe, I posted a chmod 774 for all files and folders in the entire site! I then changed the perms on the two configure.php files to chmod 740. Once that was done, I looked again and the text was still there over my counter for the Banner Manager.

 

Any other ideas?

How do you change the chmod?

[andrewggrant]

On my Mac, I opened the command console and typed, "chmod" and applied the perms I listed before.

 

Any other ideas on this? It is rather frustrating to see this broken this way.

go to catalog/admin/includes/boxes/banner_infobox.php

 

and find this line:

 

$graph->SetTitle('TEXT_BANNERS_LAST_3_DAYS');

 

and change to this;

 

$graph->SetTitle(TEXT_BANNERS_LAST_3_DAYS);

 

Regards
