Hello,
I am having problems with getting Tidypics to work on my server. When uploading images everything seems to work fine - no error messages. However, the only thing showing up is the default question mark icon. My Tidypics server anlysis shows the following:
PHP version | 5.1.6 | |
GD | Enabled | Elgg requires the GD extension to be loaded |
ImageMagick PHP | Disabled | |
exec() | Enabled | Required for ImageMagick command line |
Memory Available to PHP | 64MB | Change memory_limit to increase |
Memory Used to Load This Page | This is approximately the minimum per page | |
Max File Upload Size | 5.00 MB | Max size of an uploaded image |
Max Post Size | 8.00 MB | Max post size = sum of images + html form |
Max Input Time | 60 s | Time script waits for upload to finish |
Max Execution Time | 30 s | Max time a script will run |
GD imagejpeg | Enabled | |
GD imagepng | Enabled | |
GD imagegif | Enabled | |
EXIF | Enabled |
|
Is there something I am missing in the setup? The plugin setting show GD Image Library is selected.
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Brent

Brent, are you able to upload a photo using the file plugin and get it to show up?
Good question - nothing shows up when uploading a file with the photo plugin either. Interestingly, when I upload a photo through the file plugin everything appears to work okay. When I try to download that same file, it appears it is not there - the link returns a file with 0 bytes. Same with non-image files - 0 bytes. Could it be a file permissions problem? Sorry to be such a newb, but I don't know where to look.
Yes, I think you have a permissions problem with your data directory. I'll try to put some extra code in the next release that tries to catch this error rather than fail silently.
Thanks - I think that's it, but I can't seem to fix it. I modified my data directory to 777. When uploading a photo the newly created "/a" directory has permissions of 700 and I can't do a CHMOD through my FTP (just thought I would check to see if that corrected anything). When trying to upload, the file seems to go through okay, but now I get a blank for the image (no question mark placeholder). I realize these problems aren't particular to Tidypics and sure appreciate your help!
The user that Apache is running under would have read,write,execute permissions to the "/a" directory so I think it should work. It does mean that you cannot even check whether the file is there or not. I guess your hosting service really has things locked down.
Are profile icons working?
@Brent
DataDir == 777 is OK
All SubDirs under that == 700 is OK
because the owner usually "apache or your own ID will be executing the code and has read / write/delete to all SubDirs, nobody else can screw with the SubDirs.
0 bytes !! aha !!!
you **definitely have *file *upload *size problem ;-(
go read the php.ini / htaccess working solutions on other TidyPics beta vers posts.
The profile icon and group icon images work okay - they upload, resize and display without problems. I can contact the host, but I'm not sure what I need to ask...it's kind of weird, I've never had these problems before.
usted muy loco dumkopf LOLZ ;-)
e.g. php.ini code =
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Resource Limits ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
file_uploads = On
max_execution_time = 300
upload_max_filesize = 20M
max_input_time = 600
memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 8M
... enjoy ;-)
Too early to contact your host.
If profile icons work, it cannot be a permissions issue.
Did you say that you *cannot* upload an image using the file plugin? I wasn't sure from what you said. Try some very small images and see if they work.
Hi - Sorry for the delay in response, but I have been out of town.
I tried the php.ini setting changes suggested by Dhrup (thanks!) - this corrected the file upload problem through the file plugin. I can now upload files fine using through the file plugin and everything works as expected.
I now have a new set of issues with both Tidypics and the Photo plugins - I'm assuming it has something to do with GD. When I upload an image, it goes through the process fine accept no thumbnail shows up - just the text link "Thumbnail". When I click on the link within the album, the detail page comes up with a small blank box where the image should be. However when I click on the blank box, the full-size image now appears. So, I assume it is something having to do with the resizing process, but I am not sure how to troubleshoot. The Tidypics server anlysis shows GD as enabled.
Thanks for any help!
Brent
