Hey,

Im pretty dizzy (if thats the word), i was trying destr0yers new theme, then switched back to the Classic (wich is my default for now) and this error is appearing on top of the 1st story;
-----
Warning: fopen(/home/somosinv/geeklog/logs/error.log): failed to open stream: Permiso denegado in /home/somosinv/public_html/lib-common.php on line 1561
-----

also if i want to send a story, i get this one:
-----
Specified upload directory, /home/somosinv/public_html/images/articles exists but is not writable
File Upload Errors:
------
i really dont know whats going on.

Just in case, when i uploaded TabularDynamics, it needs "loginsforms.thml" wich i copied from Classic, tryed TD and worked ok. then changed back to Classic and went to sleep.
Today a friend told me about this errors, so i checked and i couldnt find a solution, i tryed changing perms for error.log but it didnt work...

please help

ps. QUOTE tags wont work

You may not have your directories setup properly... shouldn't logs exist in /home/somosinv/logs/ ??

try setting perms to 775. if that doesnt work, try 777

Also set perms to 775/777 for articles. This is all explained in the Geeklog documentation (Step 3) (http://www.geeklog.net/docs/install.html)

<br />Hi dest0yer.<br /><br />Well, no, its ok in that dir, because i dont host my web its on a server under geeklog dir. and the other dir would be /home/somosinv/public_html<br />this is all set ok, worked ok till now.<br /><br />about changing perms, as i told before, it doesnt work, for the logs it does, and i really dont mind having 777 in logs as i dont think there will be any probs with that, but for articles i dont know whats going on, the directory has 755, and i tried 775 and 777, both failing (also i think there is a security issue in setting this dir to 777).<br /><br />The problem is that the only thing i did was changing the theme, nothing else, that shouldnt have changed my perms in files or dirs... anyway the problem is still there but with an update, this:<br /><br />---<br />Specified upload directory, /home/somosinv/public_html/images/articles exists but is not writable<br />File Upload Errors:<br />---<br /><br />comes up only with admin rights or moderation, not for normal users... so i dont understand why... is as if my admin username has lost its "rights" or something... i think it has something to do with the "loginforms.thtml"<br /><br />hope someone throws some light on this.<br /><br />ps. im not logged in, sorry, wont rewrite this!<br /><br />sud_crow.<br />

This is probably too simple to be mentioned, but I had a similar problem once when I filled up my web directory. Is there still free space? Otherwise, all your log write attempts will fail, regardless of permissions.

Hi,

yes there is free space, around 30mb free, 20 used.
the log problem i think its solved, but the other two not, being an admin or a moderator, cannot post messages or logout.
the two error messages above appear when you try to do one or the other.

i didnt touch nothing but uploading the theme and copying the metioned file, dont understand whats going on... im thinking about deleting the hole site, but thats actually not a solution...

"this bussiness is binary, you are a 1 or a 0, alive... or death"

Its seems the problem now is everywhere, i cannot even use the chatterbox, i think it has something to do with perms, but dont understand at what level...
