I cant seem to get the image uploading to work. Or if it is, i dont know how to use it. is the link for b2upload.php supposed to be somewhere? I can only get to it when i type it in manually, and even at that point, it doesnt seem to be puting the pictures anywhere. Anyone have any words on this? thanks

first, if you havent done so, you need to change the paths in b2config.php under image upload to their actual locations.

second, you need to CHMOD the directory where the images will be to 755 or 777 if that doesn't work.

hope this helps

It's because you didn't fill out b2config.php correctly.

Lines 115.

where is the upload file option? I can only get to the b2upload.php file by typing it in. Is it supposed to do it automatically when i click on image?

It seems like you didn't configure the Upload Images portion of b2config.php correctly because you've still got

Hello

I have the same problem, I don't know WHERE is the button to upload files/images in the template when I post or edit my posts.
I checked the config files, I check twice the repertory patch, etc...

Another problem is that my php server is running in safe mode and it seems that uploading doesn't work because of the safe mode. Then, there is another way to upload ?

The path is like that :
$fileupload_realpath = '/web/users/www/totyo/deux/images';
("totyo" is my root folder et "deux" the root of the blog)

if you have any clue !

Thank you (and for your blog !)

as Kathryn618... any final solution, answer, tips or suggestions?

I verified everything in config file, no luck. I get exactly the same error message (different path names, of course). I changed b2upload to track the source of the problem and it looks like a problem with temporary variable used to store the file while in route from PC to server. Beyond that, I'm not sure, maybe it's a problem with permission to write this temp var. The modfied message I get is:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/public_html/b2/images/FGBD2003.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ulmaxcom/public_html/b2/b2upload.php on line 197

Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/var/tmp/phpi66f3V' to '/home/public_html/b2/images/FGBD2003.jpg' in /home/ulmaxcom/public_html/b2/b2upload.php on line 197
2. Couldn't Upload /var/tmp/phpi66f3V to /home/public_html/b2/images/FGBD2003.jpg.

* note - I have no idea where "/home/ulmaxcom/public_html/b2/..." comes from, or if it's right. It look suspicious to me, there is no such directory in my web. It should be /home/public_html/b2/... and I don't know where /var/tmp/... is being stored so I can't modify the permissions.

Any help is greatly appreciated, I'm stuck... Sad
