Post Posted: Fri Oct 5, 2007 23:33     Topic subject: [2.0.1] File upload error

Every time I attempt to upload an image I get...
An unknown error occurred when moving the uploaded file on the server.
When I tried to do it via the Multiple Uploads tab the following was generated at the top of the Upload box.

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/wow-factor/media/users/john/Google_news.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/wow-factor/inc/files/upload.ctrl.php on line 323 Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/tmp/phpfaWNxX' to '/home/wow-factor/media/users/john/Google_news.jpg' in /home/wow-factor/inc/files/upload.ctrl.php on line 323

When I then resort to FTP the images get loaded as black jpg's with red EWR-Access.

I've got the same problem!!!
Could it be caused by safe mode??

Permissions for /home/wow-factor/media/users/john/ seem to be wrong.
See http://manual.b2evolution.net/Debugging#Permissions for a script which helps in debugging this.

The directory "john" is 775 and owned by "wow-factor". It has no group?! (or the script fails here)

However, the script runs as "apache" and therefor has only read access. You may want to "chgrp" the directories and files to "apache" and then use 775/664 for all of them.

Of course, 777/666 would also work, because "apache" currently is the same as "rest of the world".

Ok, john at 777 now allows me to upload instead of FTP'ing
However in File Managment / browse all images uploaded or FTP'd
still show as black thumbnails with the red "Ewr - access" across them ?

"Ewr" means "Error while writing" AFAIK.
You may want to open up the .evocache folders also for all users on your server (chmod 777).. :|

Duplicated problem in v2.2.0 with media and blogs and this_blog set to 777. I can upload via FTP and access via the back office, but I can not upload via the files tab. Mine is an upgraded installation, and I have not tested this on a new installation.

I notice a double / in the first warning, and wonder if it is important.

How I got round this :

1) renamed all my current /media/blogs/folder/ to folder_bak
2) opened up/media and /media/blogs to 777
3) hit filemanager, get loads of green shit about folders being created
4) locked down /media and /media/blogs ( to 755 or summat )
5) copied all files from folder_bak to folder ( if any folders have sub folders, create them through FM and copy their files across as well )

end result is that apache is the folder owner and the fileman works without world access

Is this possible through FTP?

In 2.4.0 I was getting a ".evocache folder read/write error" message and thought this might help.

EDIT: Never mind, I think I've got it sorted, although I'm not entirely sure how.

miller64917 where are you having this problem? Certainly not on the truck leasing site that was linked in and is now removed from both your posts here in these forums.
