Thumbnail and category images problemi when changing joomla install folder

Hi FLEXITeam, Hi all,

I have the same pb: I can't see thumbs in Flexi-Items (articles) in the backend.
In the frontend it works fine when a visitor is viewing the item, but no thumbs in edition mode (like in the backend).

My config :
Joomla 3.4.5
FLEXIcontent v3.0.9-2015_11_14 (v3.0.9-rc2)
Linux SME Server (based on a redhat)
My joomla installation is in a subdomain. So my absolute path of documentroot of this joomla install (/home/e-smith/files/ibays/wm2v/html/) is not the same that the default root domain (/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/).
The permissions of the folders/files are good, owner is apache.

When I have the default install, with default params of flexi and phpthumb, I have PHP Warning (in the server logs) :
So I have change the param of com_flexicontent/librairies/phpthumb/phpThumb.config.php to : The above error no longer occurs.

But now I have the same type of error (open_basedir restriction) in this two lines :
In the backend, when I update a item with a new image, with $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG = false; I have this message :

phpThumb() v1.7.13-201406261000
phpthumb.sourceforge.net

Error messages disabled.

edit phpThumb.config.php and (temporarily) set
$PHPTHUMB_CONFIG = false;
to view the details of this error

I don't know what to change for resolve the 2 new errors. I'm stuck here.

[EDIT]
Don't understand why the message joomla/Flexi say "Error messages disabled." because my $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG = false;
When true, in the thumb zone I have in red the indicatioon to set it false.
And when false, I do not have anything in the thumb zone.

Please see this screenshot :

[/EDIT]

If all this precisions can help you (and me ).
Many thanks.

Hello

did you also to set thing to true: which inside file:

components/com_flexicontent/librairies/phpthumb/phpThumb.config.php

Yes I did, it's the same.

Sorry, forgot to say that before I update Flexicontent with this rc release, I had in the thumb zone (written in red) an error message with a bad path.
Didn't remember the message, but the image path was:
You can see twice the directory name of the subdomain

Hello

images/stories/flexicontent/uploads
- is a folder protected by direct access (via .htaccess)

phpThumb tries to access it as URL then it will not worl

test this
- temprorarilly rename (inside the above folder) the
.htaccess to something else and retry

maybe you have aesecure script ... check protection folder part

Hi! I don't have an uploads folder inside images/stories/flexicontent. I did find and renamed the htaccess file in images/stories/flexicontent/item_225_field_21/original. I tried renaming and deleting and neither option owrked...After re-uploading the photo, the broken image in the admin remains... The site looks good though.

Hello,

I don't have aesecure.
I don't have an htacces in images/stories/flexicontent/
I don't have a folder 'upload' in images/stories/flexicontent/
But my bad : in my post #58380, the path was not good.

I've just downgrade phpthumb to the v1.7.11, I have now access to the error message.
Please see this screenshot:

And now the path is good : without the twice "wm2v" of my subdomain name. Don't know why.

As you can see in the thumb zone of existing files : we can see the thumb of my picture (called "capture.png"). Why can it be screened here and not above?


Another information: when I upload a picture, I can see his thumb in the area where I have the error with the phpThumb. Please see the screenshot "Capture 1 - picture just uploaded.png". So I think the cache works.

If I save the item and re-open it then I have the phpthumb error.

About htaccess :
I can find one in : /components/com_flexicontent/uploads
I have renamed it, but nothing new.

Hello

you may send access me to the website with a PM,
suggest the ID of an item that shows the issue

this should not be FLEXIcontent configuration (path-related) parameters
as path parameter in FLEXIcontent
- (component 's 1st TAB) "Media folder" used to store original images in DB mode
- and in image field the parameter to define the place of thumbnails

are relative and you did not change them ?

Hello,
I send you that. Thanks for your time.

I didn't change anything there.

I have your PM


in file components/com_flexicontent/libraries/phpThumb/phpThumb.config.php
change line:
$PHPTHUMB_CONFIG = true;
to
$PHPTHUMB_CONFIG = false;

so that error message gets printed
also please see and answer my PM
