Failed to create folder

Hello,

When attempt to upload file to any proyect, gives the following error:

Failed to create folder '/www/my_domain.com/htdocs/activecollab/upload/7620a/b3a22/dfdbe'

The directory upload, has the necessary permissions ! (CHMOD 777)

Version of activeCollab: 0.7.1
Theme: default
DEFAULT_LOCALIZATION: es_es

When upload the files to the MySQL database, all the archives upload correctly but but when download them, all .doc, .txt and xls. files they are corrupted !

Thanks for you help!

same problem here, all files are 777.

Everything works fine just uploading files doesn't because the folder can't be created.

Thanx in advance!

Same problem here too. Upload directory has 777 (although I'd prefer 755). The subfolders, created in aC, are not shown in the upload directory, and uploading a file does not work but results in the above mentioned error message.

Help is very appreciated.

Regards,
spida

Same problem.
Everything has 777.
The aC was previously copied from another server, but every other functions work well, except the upload.

Any idea?

Hello

I have the same problem

Failed to create folder '/www/my_domain.com/htdocs/activecollab/upload/7620a/b3a22/dfdbe'


Some people have a solution ?

you can set your (don't know the file) config to use maps you made in advance... or at least get this to work.
the setting of 777 doesn't work

this person edited something to make it work only was friendly enough not to post the solution itself.
I look over this forum 4 times and didn't find the solution to this problem.

Can please anyone tell us the method of making this work!

This problem is commonly cause by force_mkdir function that does not consider open_basedir restrictions present on many systems. You can check out solution provided in this post.

activeCollab 1.0 and later does not have this type of problem.
