phpwcms Support Forum

Hi,

I've installed the latest version 1.4.1 r307 and the galleryx mod (which can be found here in the forum). Now I want to add a folder in file central which just gives me an error message: "error while writing new dir info"

The database is a MySQL 5.0.32

I would apprechiate any pointers to track down this problem because I need a gallery.

If more information is needed please ask.

Kind regards
Mike

Hmm, the script has nothing to do with the filecenter.... is the disk quota / space quota of your account reached ? Is the last image you did upload shown as Thumb ?

Hi, thank you for your answer.

There is no quota in place so no problems there. I have not tried uploading a picture without creating a folder, I will try that later today.

regards, Mike

Mhh, that is an error comming from mySQL. (file: \include\inc_tmpl\files.private.newdir.tmpl.php lie 69).

The mysql right management is ok?

Knut

hm, can you pinpoint that to a special right on a special table? If so I can ask my DB-Admin to change the rights accordingly.
The installation of phpwcms did run without errors...

regards, Mike

Then the mySQL user rights are ok.

I think it is a bad file or a table is lost.
Load up the folder

/include/inc_act/*
/include/inc_front/*
/include/inc_lib/*
/include/inc_tmpl/*

again.

Have a look into the db via phpmyAdmin for the table "phpwcms_file".

Hi,

the table phpwcms_file exists, I have an overall of 45 tables.
I will try to upload the folders you mentioned and give it another try.

regards, Mike

Hi,

for your information: I solved the problem, it was a missing column in table phpwcms_file, namely f_sort. This column is added with the upgrade_script from v1.4 to 1.5 and it seems that the problem was, that i am using a table name prefix. So the upgrade script obviously ran with errors (which I missed, shame on me ).

Nevertheless, thank you for your help.

Kind Regards
Mike

Hello to all.
I will continue to write in this topic since i have the same problem.
While trying to create folder in file center, i got error: error while writing new dir info

Also if I try to upload picture, i have error: error while insert file information
and same error is when trying to upload via ftp takeover.

My version of phpwcms is 1.4.1 r307

Here is details of my hosting:
WWW server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
PHP version: 5.2.2
MySQL version: 5.0.22
PHP settings
register_globals On (should always be set Off)
safe_mode Off (check information about security risks)
GD2 bundled (2.0.34 compatible)
Image types supported: GIF/ PNG/ JPG

Please help. Thank you.

i guess that this maybe is a problem concerning the "cryptic" filenames when your character set is any other than utf-8.

i'm using 1.4.2 (r312) with utf and i have no problem adding subfolders like
"Hüß///--llÖÖ ääük&%&GGGf 88"

[surprisingly it can contain spaces and even ampersands !!!]

to root or elsewhere.

otherwise it will be a problem during update¿

I guess the problem is born here :

WWW server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0

Hmm, it is already set to utf-8, so problem is elsewhere...

I think also. This is my first Windows based hosting, and until now, I had a lot of problems with installing and configuring phpwcms.
On linux servers, I never had any problem (and also i prefer Linux ).

But still no solution?

I have found this in phpmyadmin:

Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.22 differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.34. This may cause unpredictable behavior.

Maybe this is the reason for problem(s)?

[SOLVED] Hosting switched to Linux server

My regards and congratulations ! Half costs !
