I’m not seeing an error on this site, is this still a problem?
The error is in using the file upload module; it’s not something I think you’d see on the site itself unless you’re logged in (did you see file upload anywhere on the site?).
The file upload feature is in the admin panel.
Anyway there are a number of plugins that return error messages referencing public_html when I try to install them.
Thanks
www=public_html
One and the same thing (in 99.99999999999% of cases)
I’m guessing that you have put a path where a url is wanted.
because the directory you have specified (/home/endometr/public_html/wp-content)
that should be
http://endometrialcancer.org/wp-content/
Thank you for the advice. But I haven’t written in anything, I don’t think, except maybe wp-config, and that only asks for the database name. Am I missing something? It’s all been done automatically otherwise.
As for www=public_html, I don’t really understand the whole thing except that when I FTP, the www folder is full, and the public_html directory is empty except for two folders I can’t delete. Plus, it’s a common problem that search engines tend to see http://www.domain.com and domain.com as different. And have seen sites where http://www.domain.com yields something different from domain.com
Another note, according to the receipt from Fantastico, the WP database in question was installed in public_html, which pretty much takes the issue of file paths out of my control:
Full installation path: /home/endometr/public_html Public URL: http://endometrialcancer.org/ Admin URL: http://endometrialcancer.org/wp-admin/
http://endometrialcancer.org/wp-content
That shows permission errors ?
Have you chmod’d /home/endometr/public_html/wp-content to 777 ?
Yes, the directory has been chmod’d to 777 all along.
If WP says the folder it’s trying to use does not have the right permissions, it’s never wrong.
How are you changing the permissions ?
What is showing the permissions ?
I was using ftp to chmod it.
Of course, it’s not /home/endometr/public_html/wp-content
It’s
/home/endometr/www/wp-content
And I think that’s the source of the problem. Are you sure that www vs. public_html has no effect?
In 99.999999% of cases, www is actually a shortcut to your public_html folder.
I can believe that there’re so many posts about the upload features of WP. But in somehow, i dont know why i still have the problem like this:
It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/home2/cuongmc/public_html/wp-uploads) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.
I’ve created an folder named: wp-uploads in public_html and CHMOD it to 777.
In my Miscellaneous Options i set:
Destination directory: /home2/cuongmc/public_html/wp-uploads
URI of this directory: http://www.cuongmc.com/wp-uploads
and checked Allow file uploads
So where is the problem anyway? Anybody help me! Thank you very much…..
I’m still having the exact same problem. Anyone know if this is hidden somewhere in the codex?
