Milonic Forum profiles -- avatar upload not working

Post by timrivera »

I tried to upload a little pic for me, but I was greeted with an error message every time in every browser I tried:
Warning: copy(./images/avatars/5640718003ffa2ff7028ae.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /usr/home/milonic/forum/includes/usercp_avatar.php on line 227
I tried to "Upload Avatar from a URL" but no luck there either.

The only thing that works is linking to an off-site Avatar.

The way the forum is set up, we allow offsite linking to avatars as well as uploading your own to our server. This problem is mostly likely due to the recent upgrade of the web server and possibly overlooking some permissions. We'll look into it. Thanks.

Can you try it now please :)

I've changed the permissions on the avatars directory.

Cheers
