Hi, Paul: I recently started to install the WSN Guest 1.11, which uses Unicode utf-8 so that the Mandarin can be easily translated and displayed! There is an ERROR found in member's profile update page, where you can select an avatar to upload. However, when I tried to upload 2 small pics (30x30 and 90x90 respectively), it resulted in the following ERROR message: Warning: copy(1a339f2f8da3d53f929cdddd3bd57d5c.gif): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/xxx/functions.php on line 433 The image file could not be uploaded. Please check that it's an allowed file type and is below the maximum allowed size. I've already set the [attachment] folder to 777 when I installed WSN Guest, and I think I've carefully followed your instructions from the scratch. Would you please kindly help me to get it sorted! Cheers!

Permission denied would indicate that either the attachments directory file path is set incorrectly or the chmoding doesn't work (a few servers require 755).

Hi, Paul: You are right! I didn't set the file path yet! I think it'll be better to add up a line in README that after installation, remember to configure the [ manage settings ] in the administration panel and complete the configuration before running the WSN Guest!!! Cheers!

I have read through all relevant posts (I think), checked my file permissions, image names, etc., and I still cannot get the avatar's to display at all. http://loudmouthedliberal.com/links I have to manually go in and edit the file name in order for it to display. Any suggestions? Edited by LHaase on 01/02/08 - 09:08 PM

That isn't a guestbook, it's a links directory. Reading the instructions for a completely different program than the one you're using will cause things to not work right. It's also a version which is 3 years obsolete, approximately 80 releases behind the current.
