The following error was encountered by both Hook and Petros when they tried to upload a file to the forum:
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->THE FOLLOWING ERROR(S) WERE FOUND
The requested file upload failed because suitable permissions have not been enabled on the 'uploads' directory. Please contact the board administrator and inform them of this error.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
 
FTP has nothing to do with it. It's the "attach file to post" on the forum that I'm talking about. Also: I have now had the same problem myself, so that's three people having that problem.
 
I've had it also each time i try to attach a file to a post(even a small file - like 48kb, so its not an error of overloading).

Sad really as i've got hold of some piratey themed music i wanted to share with folks here. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
The admin needs to set folder permissions to 666 or 777 (depends on the site <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> ) on a fodler called "uploads" somewhere in IPB's files <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
I guess they are not granting permission anymore.

I wonder if it is due to all the hacking this year.
 
Keith ur William are the ones who know how to fix it and they haven't been around 'ardly at all lately, They will get around to fix'n it one O' these days <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Uploads have now been fixed by William <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Good to hear that.
I'll be making good use of that soon. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
It appears the attachment system is messed up again. Hook can't upload attachments anymore and I couldn't download one of Petros' attachments. Any idea what's going on?
 
OK guys, thanks for the heads up.

The path to the upload dir was the old one, all updated now <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":onya" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
