[Plugin: WP Photo Album Plus] Upload failure

Is ‘resize on upload’ on or off?

And you are sure …/wp-content/uploads/wppa/ exists??

After reading your message, I went to re-check the folders. Something happened with the creation of the wppa folders — they were there, but I was unable to change them to 777, or delete them. I had my provider delete them, and I changed the permissions to 777, and all is good now.
Thanks for the quick reply.

Im actually having exactly the same problem. When I try to import photos from the specified source directory I will just get a message that says:

“Resized or copied image could not be created”

All of the folders were created fine. I have wp-content/uploads/wppa/thumbs. And their permissions are all set to 777. I put a folder of photos into the uploads folder via FTP and the plugin sees them and everything, but its not successfully importing them like I mentioned above.

What am I missing? It seems like a great plugin and I would love for it work.
Thanks in advance!

You can not put a folder of photos in the uploads folder.

Put photos or a zip that contains photos(not a folder) in wp-content/wppa-depot/yourloginname and use Import Photos to import them from ‘Your depot’ (the default source directory).

DO NOT put in or remove from uploads/wppa and/or uploads/wppa/thumbs photos manually (by ftp), as this corrupts the integrity of wppa+.

If the original photos are very big (in terms of pixelsizes) you may have a problem that there is not enough memory for php to create the resized image. First try it with photos of, say 1024×768 pixels or so.

I used this plugin without too much trouble a while ago. Now I got the zip file uploaded ok, but when I try to import those photos or upload a single photo I get “ERROR: Resized or copied image could not be created.” errors.
I have the directories set ok, and I actually have one album, uploaded a while ago, running in another blog (I’m running multisite)….

Check Table X. The top part shows you the actual directories where the photos are being copied to (WPPA_UPLOAD_PATH). That directory as well as its subdir /thumbs should exist and be writable.
