Hi, thanks for the response.

Look forward to getting the multi slideshows, I like what you have done, it’s so easy to use!

Best!

Hi,

I have got a server from easyspace (hosting provider) rather than ‘regular’ hosting so am able to login into server control panel.

If you can’t do this possibly get in touch with the hosting provider and ask if php safe mode is on or off.

The folders also require permissions to be set to:

wp-content to 755 and for uploads to 777

Yes, I did you create the directory “uploads” manually with Cyberduck (am on a mac) within wp-content and set the permissions over ftp, I used Dreamweaver for this simple right click on the folder in question.

Great for some others to benefit from my efforts, took about 10 hours to suss this one, phew!

Best wishes and may the force be with you.

I have unchecked the php safe mode so it is switched off and now images are uploading….

Useful info… or what!!!

Thanks all…

Hi was this mod of the htaccess file any help, I am getting similar issue ( on Easyspase Vserver) and looking for solution…

Hi,

Okay all permissions are set as they should be…

wp-content to 755 and for uploads to 777

and still getting error message…

The uploaded file could not be moved to /var/www/vhosts/markmuggeridge.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-content/uploads

Any ideas, have checked the image via the Worpress account rather than ‘selfhosting’ and it is working….

There is plenty of memory on the Vserver.

Am using Easyspace to host and their technicians assure me other people are hosting on their Vservers…

Look forward to a solution….

Thanks.

Hi Henk,

There is a folder there now ‘wp-content/uploads’

Thanks for the info, yes I do have ftp and have set permissions as you suggest and getting the same error message.

I am using Dreamweaver to do this on Apple Mac.

Thanks, I shall persevere, am in contact with Hosting providers help desk too, will see if I can ask them to set permissions.

Possibly use different ftp client.

This WILL work, it does for thousands of others.

Cheers,

Mark

Hi,

Thanks have submitted support ticket to this effect. Will update on outcome soonest…

Many thanks,

Mark

Thanks, have set to :wp-content/uploads.
When looking at the content of the server there is no folder in wp-content called uploads. Does the sytem want to write this folder?
I have submitted a query to hosting provider asking if server has ‘mod_rewrite Apache module’.
Can you shed any light on this ‘missing folder’ – I did create them ‘manually’ but made no difference.

Thanks.
