CMS Made Simple Forums

HI,

I think I'm going to go nuts. I can upload images via the image manager, but can't see them in my pages.

config.php looks like so:

$config['image_uploads_path'] = 'C:\Inetpub\stjohnsarchdiocese.nf.ca\wwwroot\chalktoslate\cmsmadesimple\uploads\images';

$config['image_uploads_url'] = $config['root_url'] . '\uploads\images';


I've tried switching forward slashes to backslashes, etc. I've tried linking directly to the address (http://www.........../uploads/images)
with no avail.

any ideas? All the images are showing up in the main image manager window, so the first address must be right (C:\Inetpub\stjohnsarchdiocese.nf.ca\wwwroot\chalktoslate), but the second one must not be correct.

This has been addressed a few times on the forum, but seemingly none with a windows-specific answer.  Thanks.

Can you display your images in direct way: http://www....../uploads/images/img.jpg ?
If yes, check address url with your config.php

Hi,

the only address that makes the images show up in ImageManager is the C:\Inetpub\..........). When I use  http://www....  the images don't show up.

But no matter what I use for the $config['image_uploads_url']  the images won't show up on the pages.  They show up in Tinymce, but they don't show up in the pages on the site when I look at them.

Thanks for ANY help!

Hello Terry,

what is the content on your server of the /uploads and /uploads/images folders ? I mean : seen from your SSH or FTP agent.

Hi,

In uploads/images  are the images that I've been uploading.  They're coming up in the image manager, but not in the individual pages.    Ideas?  I'm stumped!

Thanks

Terry

I had a similar problem.

I am using apache but on windows. I am normally a linux user so quite happy with the permission stuff involved with uploading images.

Since you do not have permission masks on windows such 0755 etc, i figured i did not need to think about them.
But then when i uploaded an image i could not see it. I knew the path was correct but it was not displayed.

Fix: - Site Admin -> Global Settings ->File Creation Mask (umask): Test

After i tested that, i re-uploaded the image and works.. the first version of the image i uploaded still does not appear.

Not sure if this will work for you, but its worth a try.

If the files are in uploads/images say uploads/images/somefile.jpeg you should access them as Alby has suggested with http://some.host.net/cms/uploads/images/somefile.jpeg if not there is some serious flaw in the install.

How do you try to have the images "coming up ... in the individual pages" ?

Do you see anything usefull in your http logS ?
