Question Unable to upload attachments

Erin,

I tried uploading a jpeg from my computer and I got the error:

Warning: mkdir(attachments/2/5/9/4): Permission denied in /includes/functions_file.php on line 112


I checked my permissions and it says that I can upload attachments.


Nirmala.

I think that's an intermittent error. Can you try again?

Ah, it has to do with the fact that this is your first time uploading. I'll look into it.

Sorry for the trouble.

Nope. Still get the same error. There is an additional line to the error, which says:

dna_repair.jpg:
Could not create file system directory to hold your attachment.

What's the maximum file size that can be uploaded? (My disk says the file is 64 kb ---> too much?)

If the file is too large, then you'll get a message that says it exceeds the limit.

Also, the permissions mentioned in your first post have to do with the permissions on the TM end, not your user permissions.

Anyway, this has been a bit of a problem for a while now, but since it's intermittent, it's hard to troubleshoot.

Could you try uploading to this thread?

No, it still doesn't work for me. I even tried thro' IE (normally use firefox) and tried uploading .pdf. Nothing works. I even tried turning off my internet firewall.

This is my first try at attachments. Could this be the problem (as the error is from mkdir)?

I think the problem is the mkdir--the server won't allow a new directory to be created, which is needed every now and then. I think I can fix this, but it'll take me a couple of hours to get to it, since I'm not in a place where I can do this kind of thing at the moment.

Hi Erin,

I am still getting the error message. Did you have a chance to look into the mkdir problem?
