Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hi, When i add a new product and add a picture to it it wont display it. Only displays a box with red x in it. I have tried different images, but same problem appears allways. I didnt had this problem before, dont know what went wrong. I havent added any contributions to my store in the last time... Suddenly it wont show any picture with new added products.... How do i solve this ? Any tricks ? regards, fmunir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hello, I'm having the same problem as fmunir, so maybe someone could kill two birds with one stone. When I upload images in the admin I get the error message: Error: Catalog images directory is not writeable: /home/bestbuyw/public_html/catalog/images/ I haven't changed the directory priveleges, added any contribs, etc. Anyone out there have any ideas? Can I force the folder to be writeable?? Thanks, Garland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Garland, chmod the images folder to 777. Do this with an ftp tool or cpanel or directly on the server if you have access. ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 fmunir, Are the images .jpg, .gif, .bmp? Do you see the image after you click Preview in the product entry screen in admin? Is your images directory writeable (777)? ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hi, Yes the properties are 755/777, but same problem.

Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Have you added any contributions which change the way images work or change the product edit page under admin? ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I am also having this problem. I have a few websites and I just instaled oscommerce 2.2MS2 via fantastico and all images show with red crosses in box. The permissions set themselves as 600 for all new images uploaded which explains why the images don't show. All existing images are 755 I am puzzled as I tried this on a few of my websites which run under cpanel and installed fresh oscommerce installations and they do the same thing. Any new images set themselves with permsission of 600. Any ideas on how to make the images automatically set themselves to 755. I have a few sites running well with oscommerce 2.2 but not the current release. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
