Hi all,
I have a problem on our website: files uploaded to the server using File Center, cannot be selected in articles. In an article I *can* see the name of the file, but I can't see the thumbnail and can't use it.
Strange thing is, one picture that I've uploaded a few months ago (when I was installing phpwcms) *can* be selected! When I compare the pictures that can be selected with the pictures that can't be selected, I notice one difference: the pictures that can't be selected have a different username (the web providers username, 'apache')
But when I upload a picture now, it gets the username the provider gave me (the one I use to connect to the webspace) and it can't be selected in an article.
I have read a number of posts about this problem, like:
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.p ... ile+center and http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9790
I have even implemented the chmod change of the last one, and I can see it works but I still can't select the pictures I upload!
Does somebody recognise this?
Do you have a solution?
Help!
File Center uploaded files not selectable in articles
Incredible. I am looking for a solution for days, and finally decided to call in the help of the phpwcms forum. And, 5 minutes later, I found the solution.
This is the cause:
phpwcms wasn't able to create a thumbnail.
But, strangely enough, it didn't show an error message! That's what confused me, and set on the wrong track. In stead, it only showed an error message after I clicked the '+create thumbnail' icon behind the filename (it appears if you click on the filename in File Center). Then an error like this popped up:
This is the solution:
Change the authorisation of folder phpwcms_tmp/thumb_list and phpwcms_tmp/thumb_preview to 777.
Cheers!

Change the authorisation of folder phpwcms_tmp/thumb_list and phpwcms_tmp/thumb_preview to 777.

Sounds like a very old version of phpWCMS. Those files and folders and directions for chmod permissions are no longer used.HansV wrote:This is the solution:

You should use the latest v1.2.6-DEV from the CVS link at the phpWCMS Docu site in my signature.
