Image error/File upload error solved....
I've tried searching this forum for answers, but the one person who had the problem and solved it didn't state how he solved it.
I finally figured out what the problem was. Even though the check.php output said that the CHMOD settings should be 775 on the /images/articles directory and the /backend directory, and the test indicated that the settings were indeed 775 on all those folders and files, I did have to change them to 777. I didn't have to do that on my other geeklog site, and that's why I was wondering why I was having so much trouble. Both sites are using the same web host and running on the same server (luna.affordablehost).
Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that this second site is actually a subdomain. Any thoughts on that? Once I CHMOD'd the folders and files to 777, however, it was happy as a clam. All's well that ends well, I suppose.
I'm putting the error message text in quotes so someone else can find this when they are searching.
Plus, here's the original output from my check.php results:
BTW, this is a test bed site for my car club. URL is
here.
Thanks!
