image fields stopped working

Hi there,

I can not upload new images to my content items, or use existing images in their image fields.
Both used to work fine "before".

This happens on both my remote webserver, and my local Windows MAMP 5 Pro Server.
It happens on multiple image fields, and in multiple types.
Image fields are configured as re-usable, db-mode.

When I load and re-save existing content items, they lose their image(s).

I do have the php warning about ~"php temp folder not set" (in both environments).
But I can see that new image files are being uploaded, because I see them in FC's /uploads/ folder, on both servers. (Also, I can upload extensions etc.)

My apache error log shows no error.
Also, I do not see any log files (other than cron_estorage.php) in my Joomla folder (root and administrator).

What can I do to solve that?
Thanks in advance!
Ben

hello maybe the problem is the base component url
go to global config of flexi
go to file tabs
add a / before url for both folder access
like this
/components/com_flexicontent/uploads
/components/com_flexicontent/medias

thanks for your reply, but:

when i change the urls like you wrote, i get the error
"Unable to upload file" in a system popup after trying to upload.

Note that my file still gets uploaded to
C:\MAMP\htdocs\[...]\components\com_flexicontent\uploads
as it did before.
New is just the popup with error.

Without the leading slah in the urls, the same happens, just without visible error.

Flexicontent item form (in both cases) shows an empty square for the image upload area, after failing.

difficult to debug on local server for now ...

oh, of course, but "luckily" happens on staging server, too:
Would PM with credentials be ok for you? (frontend and super-user if you want?)

What IS your j version
Flexi version and
PHP version ?
