Image Manager Sub Directories

mitch · Post by **mitch** » Wed Oct 06, 2004 2:33 pm

Am using 0.7 rc2

I can see and edit files in the "uploads/image" directory with ImageManager.

However, files uploaded to subdirectories of image (ie image/new/), cannot be accessed by the ImageManager.

All directories chmod'd @ 777

Any thoughts?

Thanks

this is because filemanager does not allow other programs access

Any way of granting access ?

While playing with 0.7rc2 I had the same thing but after I chmoded my directories to 755 it seem to have no problem seeing the images.

Its weird but while they were at 777 I coulndt see them.

This however may be related to the fact that the server has phpsueexec installed.

I dont really know much about the server as a friend of mine has given me some space to play around and test things for my freelance projects.

The ImageManager only recognizes web-viewable images: .png, .jpg and .gif. Other files will be ignored. Are you able to see the files using the normal filebrowser?

There is another thing, though: for optimal use of the image manager & editor needs a graphical library: ImageMagick, GD or NetPBM. you should choose the one your system supports and edit the config.php file accordingly: set either 'GD', 'NetPBM', 'IM' for ImageMagick or '' if none are available on you system. This might have something to do with it.
