Comments module: captcha-picture invisible

Post by Oliver »

Hi all,

I'm running (and testing) 1.0 beta 5 and have installed Comments 1.7. Everything works fine except for the captcha-picture. It is written to tmp/cache/ just as it sholud be, but the .jpg obtain a 640 permission so they are invisible to the frontend user.

tmp/cache has permission set to 777.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks a lot for your help!

In Site Admin -> Global Settings, try setting changing the:
File Creation Mask (umask): from "022" to "002"
From: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... l_Settings

Hope this helps,

Elijah

Hi Elijah,
sounds like catching fog but it actually works! Pictures now get 644 and display properly. I put this in the wiki too:

Thank you very much!

Hi,

I'm new with CMS and now I have installed comments module.

Someone can help me, I can't view the captcha picture because the link to image.jpg is:

http://www.mysite.com/cmsnewtmpcacheb2e ... ddc32d.jpg

I think instead:

http://www.mysite.com/cmsnew/tmp/cache/ ... ddc32d.jpg

There aren't any "/" in the link.

Why I have this kind of link?

Where I set-up and fix it ? in comments module ? and how ?

Thank you

Please post your config.php file  with username and password information removed. It could be your path settings are wrong for some reason.

Everything looks ok. Sorry, I don't know what's wrong. It seems to work for other people.  :-\
