Karel: problem uploading new avitar

[scifos]

Hey karel, i've been trying to upload a new avitar, and it gives me this error:

Warning: copy(./customavatars/avatar576_9.giv): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /includes/functions_upload.php on line 336

My guess is that maybe functions_upload.php didn't get chmod-ed correctly ??
Or line 336 might be trying to access the wrong MySQL database or have wrong user/password for the database??

same prob here...

I checked and the directory where the avatars are stored didn't seem to have the right permissions set. Try again and let me know!

Regards,

Karel

On another problem topic: when I am emailed with a post in a thread, for example this http://www.mrmarketishuge.com/forum/...8&goto=newpost, when I click on it, I am only directed to the main site and not the thread/reply. Any chance of resolving this one too? Thanks again for all the work it takes to provide the site guys!

spike: I believe it is because all links with "/forum" in them get redirected to the main page, as there is no /forum anymore.

OK, you are correct, sir! When I took the /forum out, it worked.

Karel, the emails we are getting telling us about a reply to a post, they still have the '/forum' in there. i.e. the email is saying:
"This thread is located at: http://www.mrmarketishuge.com/forum/showthread.php?t=838&goto=newpost"

Can we change it to:
"This thread is located at: http://www.mrmarketishuge.com/showthread.php?t=838&goto=newpost"

Thanks!

I think I found the setting that was responsible for the misdirection and changed it. Let's see if it works!

Yeah, couldn't upload a new pic, but luckily my old one was put in the database of pics I could choose from.

Karel,

I am sure you can fix this problem, or keep drinking. One or the other is fine.

[Karel]

I decided to do the fixing first, now I am ready for the drinking. As my piglet avatar shows (for a little time), I seem to have stumbled on the right solution.

Karel
