Hi all,

I recently installed Silverstripe on my laptop to figure it out, it all worked perfectly so i decided to use it for a website.

Installation went great and everything seems to work allright. The only problem i am facing right now is the ability to upload images.

When i select an image in the "Files and Images" tab, and click to upload i receive the following error:

Error

The website server has not been able to respond to your request.

In my attempt to solve this problem I chmodded the assets folder to 777, and also the folders below this directory (uploads etc).

I read alot of topics and solutions but i just cannot get it to work. Does anybody have a clue? I still think it has to do with user rights, considering it all worked fine on my laptop.

My Silverstripe version: 2.2.3 and it runs on a Linux server.

Thanks in advance,

Jan-Willem

Hi , and welcome to Silverstripe...

Hmmmm... odd.... Check your apache logs for errors...

I bumped into a problem with the assets some time ago .... Don't think it is the same problem , but you never know...

Hello and thanks for your quick reply. I'm going to try to get a log from my host company.

I checked your topic, but it seems to be a different problem. When i try to upload, it gives almost instantly the error message, it's not that ajax keeps loading forever.

Thanks for the suggestion. I hope i can post the log soon.

Find out what the error is by turning on error reporting in _config.php

Debug::send_errors_to('myemail@address.com');

Then post the error here.

Ok i received an error log, and i added the error reporting function, it gives some interesting errors. I will post them tonight, because i have to hurry now for an appointment. Thanks for the help sofar, much aprreciated.

Ok, here are the error messages i received, trying to figure them out atm:

Yikes. That's a server config issue. Send it to your hosting provider to get the open_basedir restriction lifted.

Thanks!

I will and keep you up-to-date if it worked.
