I took a quick look at your site. I noticed text on the right side called beavers.gif. When I try to force viewing the file, I get the following error:



This looks to me like there is a permission issue with the file, either from a Concrete5 or a linux permissions perspective.

I hope that points you in the right direction.

I have gone in to file permissions with the File Manager on my host and set all the permissions on the graphic and thumbnail to yes for RWE on Admin,User and Guest and the picture now appears. If I have to do this for every picture I can not allocate webediting to all the Groups Leaders to update their own pages.

Your help has been great already I am on a steeplearning curve Thanks.

There may be something weird going on with your server setup, but normally whatever permissions a directory has are the permissions that new files will get when created there, so as long as you set the RWE permissions on the "files" directory, you *should* be okay going forward. Is it possible that the files having permissions troubles were not uploaded by users but rather copied there during a deployment of your site?

Yes I think there is something to do with the server. The files I have uploaded by ftp during the setup worked fine. Before posting to this site I had set the Files folder with full permissions and also the Thumbnails. I have uploaded new images today and still have to go in to Filemanager through the host site and click on every new folder and image file in the files directory.

Is it something I did not do on setup or the SQL setup a problem. I have initated this work round of using the file manager but the Scout Leaders will not be able to do that. Fustrating as C5 is such an easy CMS to use.

I think it is time to speak with the hosting company. I know at least one other person on C5 hosts through this company so contacting them might help.

Again thanks for your help.

What about file ownership? If the web server user (usually wwwdata) does not have proper access to the files, then it will not be able to display them. So, your user may be RWE but if the wwwdata user has -WE, then you will be able to save the file but not display them.

I though I would finish this post by giving the answer that I found today. 123-reg change the permissions on every picture file uploaded to 644. The full solution and be found athttp://www.concrete5.org/index.php?cID=243886&editmode=...
