Hello,
i do have the following problem with SIG pro:
The thumbnails are created in temp-folder, but they do have chmod 600. After changing manual in readable, everything works correct until new temp images are created, because these get chmod 600 once again.
Is there anything i can do to solve this?
Thank you,
Andy

Hi my friend!

I'm afraid this is permissions issue... You need to set the php in mode that any user can execute the task under his permissions and not under "nobody".

It's better you contact your server administrator to help you on that!

Thank you!

Thank you for your reply.
If somebody has the same problem, here's a way i did solve it:
in sigproengine.php
to find in /mambots/content/plugin_jw_sigpro/ under joomla 1.0
or in /plugins/content/jwsigpro/ with joomla 1.5
add the following line near the end of the file:

     ...

old:     $this->SaveImage($ni, $to_name);

new:     chmod($to_name, 0644);

old:   }

old:

old: }

old:

old: ?>

I had to do this, as every file published in a temp or tmp directory is at first published without public reading-rights.

Hope i could help somebody by this,
Andy

I tried what you suggested, added to the sigengine_pro.php. After that, my website gone blank.

You left "old:" and "new:" away, I hope.
Also you seem to have another version, i don't have a sigengine_pro.php

This "fix" only helps if
- the images in the temporary folder are (!) created by simple image gallery pro
- the images have the wrong chmod of 600 instead of 644 and therefore aren't displayed
I'm not a good coder, but it did help with my site, that is.

The additional line only changes the chmod of the thumbnails directly after they are created. I don't know what happens, if the file was not created before, but I could imagine the script stops with an error, as there is no file to chmod. Only delete the above line and everything should be as before.
If the thumbnails aren't created, there might be missing write-right.
Try to chmod the temporary directory of your thumbnails to 744 or 774.

Hope that works for you

Of course the "chmod" command will resolve the problem!  :)
Nice catch kunz.andy!

I proposed to resolve this issue from the server, because the same problem will
have all the components that are installed with the specific user.

Also, I'm not sure if the script will be ok under ISS.

But it's ok! I agree for a quick fix!

Thank you!

the "error creating thumbnail" issue has not gone. It was fine for me last few months. I have been reading the threads about this. I have tried changing to CHMOD to 777 and my server should support GD. I still cant get this solved. Should I make a temp folder as suggested here? My website is www.zadm.net

Hi my friend!

Can you please post a direct link to the exactly gallery where I can see the problem?
I have just seen the page
zadm.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=53&Itemid=41
and I can see a working sig pro gallery.

You can change the temp folder, or delete and re-create it!

Thank you!

problem almost solved, it was my fault from the very start. I did not create temp folder in my images directory. And since that is solved i got this error from this web page.

zadm.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=67&Itemid=41

how to fix this? is it chmod issue again?

Hi my friend!

Hmmm, at the page source, for the first thumb we have the original image
But when I try to see it throw the browser, your server returns this error

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Can you please check the integrity of the images?

Thank you!

how to check the integrity of the image? I absolutely have no idea sorry noob here.  :-[

Try to see the image throw a browser.

If your server continues to return this error, reupload the image.
If you still have this issue, edit the image with some application ( like photoshop ) and extract the image for "internet purposes"  with 70dpi.

Until the server doesn't return the image, the script cannot run as must!

Thank you!
