Category Images NOT Uploading

[Guest]

I'm baffled again...I have imported my categories from an earlier version, they are showing the description and category image.

 

I added a new category using the admin, uploaded the picture, viewed the 'preview', everything seems fine. Go back to the same category and I get "IMAGE DOES NOT EXIST".

 

If I add the image name directly to the database it works fine.

 

I'm using "categories.php,v 1.4 2002/09/08 20:23:47 wilt Exp $" that was included in the Loaded Snapshot from Ian.

I found that to solve this I change all reference to the copy function to the move_uploaded_file function.

 

Then it uploads directly via the admin section.

The image is then instantly displayed.

Hi CC!

 

When you say remove all reference to the copy function to the move_uploaded_file function. Are you meaning the references for the small, medium, and large images too?

 

The only one I'm having trouble with is the category header image.

No what I mean is in categories you have this line:

 

copy($categories_image, $image_location);

 

I changed this to:

 

move_uploaded_file($categories_image, $image_location);

 

And now OSC uploads the exact image I want there and then.

It will work for Category headers, images etc...

That one particular line is for the category images, but you can also do the same for the products image.

If yours is working ok at this time for the product image I wouldn't be to worried about changing that part.

 

Let me kow if it works for you.

BTW - This will dump all images in the catalog/images folder and wont go into subfolders.

Hate to ask, but I trust the images directory is 777?

There was a small bug in the code, after I added the categories description code which caused this. If you download the zipfile again and extract the categories.php file all will be well with the world.

Thanks Ian! That fixed the problem.
