Uploading pictures

[D.W.Livingston]

When I go into the Gallery and choose "upload pictures" I choose the 5 I wanted to add to the Gathering gallery and then I hit continue and I get the error message:

Destination directory albums/userpics/10054/ is not writable by the script !

I try to put in any gallery and get roughly the same.
Can we put the steps in the "Forum Guide" section to let all members know the correct way to upload pictures and/or creating galleries, etc.

Thank you and I hope to add the pictures Jill sent me as well as any I find on the Internet of the Gathering.

You should have been be able to upload them to the The Gathering 2009 at Holyrood Park and the related sub albums.

Destination directory albums/userpics/10054/ is not writable by the script

was beacuse I had not sitched it so that users coulkd load to private albums. Have switched so that you can. Try now.

Same Error Message:

Destination directory albums/userpics/10054/ is not writable by the script !

It happens in any folder I try to upload to.

Hey Donald,

Check the photo gallery. I posted those documents there. We should have a seperate category for documents.

Barry

I wonder if he still can....

Hello Barry,

Can you try and upload any document to any folder? I was specifically trying to upload pictures to the Gathering album as well as a personal album, which coppermine allowed me to make but not add pictures to. I have since tried to add the pictures through File Upload as well as URI/URL upload... same error.

Destination directory albums/userpics/XXXXX/ is not writable by the script

So I have done some searching and found many webhosting sites talking about the issue. Like:
http://documentation.coppermine-gallery ... ooting.htm

Destination directory albums/userpics/XXXXX/ is not writable by the script

permissions on file system level are not correct
Make sure to review your file/folder permissions(http://documentation.coppermine-gallery ... ermissions). If that doesn't help, ask your webhost for support.

from what Niall has said he has already adjusted the file/folder permissions so it could possibly be my system. I've tried in both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
If anyone else wants to try.. or wants to see the pictures I have to post thanks to Jill (with her explanation of each) you can pull them down from these URL's

Looking online for Gathering pictures I stumbled across this picture of the Friends of Appin Society at Bachuil. I thought it would look nice in the Ancestry album.

I think I have found the problem and believe that you should now be able to upload pictures.
