Could the BOM be your problem?

We're left guessing here with so little information. Maybe the data directory is set incorrectly in your database? Maybe the images no longer exist on the server?

hye friends,

this prob happened to me too. Im trying to duplicate my elgg site at my localhost by referring to http://docs.elgg.org/wiki/DuplicateInstallation. How ever my new elgg site didn't show all the picture including tidypics gallery. i've set the correct data path correctly. Anything else i should refer?

@dermis

1. data path

2. file permissions

3. datastore directory

If those 3 are correct, you should be able to see your images.

thanks tidypics team. it works.

the data path dir folder structure should be same as elgg root folder name

folder name : abc

data path structure should contains dir : data_path/a/b/c/abc/

one quick question, is it possible for me to install elgg on my hosting site that running php not as apache module? but as php cgi mode

If you know the data directory path, the images are stored in there. Each user gets a directory. The full path depends on what version of Elgg you are using. In the user's directory is a images directory where the albums are stored. 

Hello ,
