Okay so I just moved a cart to a different domain than originally- still Dec 2002 snapshot - everything seemed to be working fine - images were showing, etc. Now my problem is that whenever I try to enter a new product with an image, I am getting both the pink error above the admin that says that the images file doesn't exist (which it does however) and then I am getting this error when I try to preview a product before adding:

 

Warning: Unable to create ' /home/virtual/sitexx/fst/var/www/html/images/Cat_Running_Silhouette.gif': No such file or directory in /home/virtual/sitexx/fst/var/www/html/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 789

 

Warning: Unable to move '/tmp/phpe978Rh' to ' /home/virtual/sitexx/fst/var/www/html/images/Cat_Running_Silhouette.gif' in /home/virtual/sitexx/fst/var/www/html/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 789

 

I have checked the config file and it is calling correctly - where else could the error be - the images folder is there - the catalog script is displaying images that I uploaded to that folder from the move....

 

 

ANY IDEAS ON WHERE TO LOOK???? :oops:

Have you set the correct permissions for all the files and folders ?

 

catalog/includes

catalog/includes/configure.php

 

admin/includes

admin/includes/configure.php

admin/backup

 

catalog/images

 

 

I think these are the ones,

I have catalog/images CHMOD at 777

 

strange thing is that the admin error is even displaying the CORRECT path to the image folder but is telling me that the image folder doesn't exist?

 

I can see the images in the store as a visitor but can't add any images in the admin without receiving errors......

 

VERY STRANGE :oops:

try changing the folder to CHMOD 7555 then change back to 777

 

what about case ?

 

is it catalog/IMAGES or is it catalog/images ?

 

unix is case sensitive.

 

I had this problem as well many months ago after transferrng a store to a new server. I'm sre it was one of those two !

I am going nuts - I tried the 7555 and then back to 777

it is lower case images

 

I don't understand - the images are showing in the store just can't add anything in admin - tells me that it doesn't exist -I know that usually if it is a CHMOD issue that I will get a "Writeable" error - this error simply states that the file doesn't even exist!!!!! :?

Well I still wish I knew what the problem had been - I decided to simply reinstall the admin area and guess what?????

 

PRESTO - it found the images folder, I can add to it and everything is fine now....

 

Thanks for the help
