Topic: problems with avatars

i read the faq and it said i should chmod 0777 the avatar dir so i did that.


drwxrwxrwx 2 tracked users 4096 Jul  4 15:09 avatars

and i get the error

PHP was unable to save the uploaded file to a temporary location.

any ideas? i havn't changed the default location for avatars in the options.. it's still img/avatars or something.. which is correct.

Re: problems with avatars

You don't have write right to /tmp

Re: problems with avatars

hmm... it's not my box.. any way i can change the tmp dir it uses to something i have write access to?

Re: problems with avatars

so none knows if this is possible?

Re: problems with avatars

I think you need to talk to your host

Re: problems with avatars

You can, but it requires access to your php.ini file. You need to change the temporary directory for saving uploaded files.
