I have a couple of CMSMS sites for customers on a server and they're all working fine.
Now I finally make time to make my own CMSMS based site and it's not behaving
Everything seems to be OK, (including .htaccess pretty URLs), but the image manager just isn't playing nicely.
I can upload images fine, but thumbnails aren't being created and none of the image editing panel is working.
If I click to edit an image, it is displayed in the panel, but if I try to rotate it, Firefox displays a broken image placeholder where the rotated image should be.
I'm not getting any errors displayed.
I've got 2 sites on the same server running 1.0.2, the other's running fine.
I've compared the config files back to front, upside down and inside out- (even used the WinMerge file comparison program) the only error I found was an eronious slash in the config for the site that's working OK
This isn't life threatening- I don't do any image editing in the manager, tho it would be handy to see the thumbnails. I'm just a bit pithed that I can't figure this one out for myself..!
Any suggestions of futher things to try much appreciated.
