I am doing a website(Joomla) and I am using admiror gallery. Everything is working fine while I was working in the localhost but now that I migrated it to a live server, I am having problems in uploading images in the gallery.
The first is when I create a new folder to contain my new images. When I create it and try to upload a zip file, it's taking forever to load only to find out that it's not even uploading at all. When I looked into it, the reason is when a new folder is created, the permission is 755 by default, thus, making changes on the folder is not allowed. I need to change the file permission to 777 and now I am able to upload my images but there is another problem that occurs. The thumbnails in the backend are showing broken images. This is because the 'thumbs' directory in home/administrator/components/com_admirorgallery/assets/thumbs/ is again set to 755. I tried to change it to 777 and reupload the images again. The images gets uploaded but the problem with the thumbnails is still there. I checked again the folder and the permission is reverted back to 755.
Is there something I can do with this? Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
You should check the files and folder owner, not only permission.
PHP user (Joomla) is the creator of thumb folder, thus it should be able to create files in that directory. Also, it is not safe to have 777 on live site.
Shambhala made a suggestion that should help. Also you should use AkeebaBackup when migrating from local to live server, I never had problems with it.

I'm trying to build a Flask APP, which includes two webpages. The first one allows users to upload an image, after which the server will take the image input and make predictions from CNN and generate some image results. For the first page and from the server end, they both work well. The user upload and image generation are successful. However, the second page won't load the newly generated images. The page shows as bellow:
The second webpage
Two issues could be possibly related to this:
Permission issue? I set the permission of this app folder and subfolders to 777, although the uploaded images and newly generated images are not. Please see the below image for details of these image permissions.
ls -la for all images to be shown
Even The pink ones are either uploaded(the first one) or newly generated (the rest two), while green ones are "shutil" copied from another folder. As green images inherit the previous permissions, it should display, but why does it not?
BTW, I also tried the solution here, but it still doesn't work.
Am I on the right track to solve this? Thanks in advance for any help.

Have you inspected to validate that the image path its using as the src is correct? This would be your first step to validate the application is correct.
After that try validating any error logs that may indicate a local file error, this would depend on the web server software you're using.
I got a strange situation.
I'm using VQMOD with Opencart and everything worked alright until I uploaded all the code to a secure ssl hosting.
VQMOD still works and is making all the cache files in vqcache. In checked.cache file however not all the modded files are listed. Is this normal?
logs, vqcache, checked.cache, mods.cache, system/cache and logs have permissions set to 777
It seems that VQMOD is not using all the plugins (using the normal files instead of the vqcache file). I have no errors.
Can someone help me with this?
Checklist of things you need to do
Delete the files /vqmod/mods.cache and /vqmod/checked.cache
Remove all cache files from the /vqmod/vqcache/ directory
Make sure your write permissions are valid on /vqmod/, /vqmod/vqcache/ and /vqmod/logs/
Make sure the files in /vqmod/xml/ are readable by the web server user
Make sure the file /vqmod/xml/vqmod_opencart.xml is present
Go to http://yoursite.com/vqmod/install/ to make sure everything is installed correctly
Am very new to magento, created one site using magento. All the functionality are working fine in localhost. When am upload that code into online(server), i got one issue. except that all functionality are working fine.
While am uploading an image i got the issue "Unable to create directory".
Images are uploading to tmp path but not moving to target path. Because when am press the button 'upload files', I can able to see the upload percentages. That is why am thing the files are not moving due to dynamic directory creation fails.
I have tried lot but i can't able to make it as work.
I had tried the following solution,
1. Changed the media file permission to 777.
2. Created one tmp directory under /var/ directory and assigned manually in as tmp directory by change the line 91 of lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php ('cache_dir' => null to 'cache_dir' => 'var/tmp').
3. Changed the php.ini file under the magento root directory.
Newly added lines are,
magic_quotes_gpc = off
short_open_tag = on
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
4. Checked whether GD library installed or not. It was installed.
5. Changed scope attribute in Magento admin panel -> Catalog -> Attributes -> Manage attributes. After this you should find image, small_image & thumbnail attributes. Then am changed all these attributes scope to Global.
Many thanks in advance. Please share your thoughts. Feel free to post your comment also.
Finally I got solution at 22-Aug-2014.
Problem is PHP version issue, megento need php 5.2.13 but my server contains php 5.2.12
After updated php version, image upload working fine.
We are using Sitecore 6.5 and have a multi-site Sitecore solution (with lots of library code we have inherited)
Publishing the Media Library by item from Staging to Production but we are not seeing the image on the web.
The images are in the web database and the path to the images in the web site is good.
Error we are getting when the file is requested (same in browser window address bar) is http://domainname/error?aspxerrorpath=/~/media/OSS/Images/WaterAndWildlife/myimage.jpg.
There is no media prefix in the web.config
Any idea?
....Looking into it now but site is going live tomorrow so help very appreciated! Help!!
We faced a similar problem when, in production, media files were not published which resulted in 404 errors.
Solution: The problem was that media files were not saved to the database because a file path was provided with the Sitecore media files while uploading.
So the images were saved on the file system instead of in the database. But based on our web.config configuration we were fetching images from the database.
If you are facing a similar issue, just download the media image, remove the file path, and save it. Then re-upload the same image, save and publish the image.
Hope your problem will be solved.
One question, are these staging and production environments separate code files? if they are, what is the setting in your web.config for the settigns UploadAsFiles? because if that's true it will store them on server and the images will be on staging but not on prod. But usually if this setting is true and the files are getting stored in file system, specially in CM/CD environment it should push the physical files on publish as well, but sometime there might be other issues going on like permission etc..... and the files cant get to the destination.
"<setting name="Media.UploadAsFiles" value="false">"
The problem occurs when the site admin uploads images, this works all fine and dandy so it's on a permissions issue on the images directory. But once the image is uploaded, the thumbnail preview no longer works (was fine on the other server) nor does the direct link to the image ( /images/somerandom.jpg).
I have checked server side and the images does in fact exist in the images directory and the thumbnail for previewing is also being created.
I have checked a bunch of permissions and setting the entire directory to both chmod 664 and 666 none of which makes any difference. Ownership on the entire images directory and it's contents have been set to apache.apache too, to no avail.
Any suggestions or help would b greatly appreciated.
