Obviously. Read the section in the installation instructions again that talks about chmoding the logs directory and the files in that directory. Try running the file at http://yoursite/admin/install/check.php - it will tell you which chmods need to be done. bye, Dirk

ok, thanks i chmod all the listed directories to 775 as instructed the images wouldnt upload either until i chmod the images directories to 777 ... is that normal? im also running geeklog on another website on same server with same dirctory structure and the geeklog folder is chmod 755 and the log folder is 775 and it works fine ... that site also required the image folders to be chmod 777 though ill take another look but i think i double checked all permissions

Yeah, permissions may have to be different for different servers since that depends on how the server is set up / configured. In other words, that\'s normal. bye, Dirk
