Question Joomla 1.5.22 and kunena 1.6.1 JFolder::create: Could not create directory

Okay - I spend hours now searching for an answer but simply can't find a solution for it.

I used to run joomla 1.5.15 and kunena 1.5 and been so the past year without any issues. I bought a new domain and been trying with a clean installation of Joomla 1.5.22, allowed it to update Mootools and tested everything was working. After this I installed kunena 1.6.1 - and it went smooth with no problems. No matter what I tried so far I keep getting this error:

JFolder::create: Could not create directory

I search arround for some time to see what was wrong, and a lot of people said it was permissions - so I started from an end to give 777 permissions to everything - and ended out with every single file and folder on my ftp to have this permission and still the same error.

I decided I had to have done something wrong, so I removed everything and started over again. Now Im sitting with a fresh installation of joomla 1.5.22 and Kunena 1.6.1 - with everything on standard and mootols allowed to update - and same problem.

In my search for an answer I really wonder why there are no list telling you excatly what you need to give permissions for it to work.

What am I doing wrong? - my site: www.Qleap.eu/joomla

Hello,

Look here : help.ubuntu.com/community/Joomla#Configure%20Access%20Rights , you need to change the membership of files on your server. If you have a shared hosting, you can ask to your host if ut can do it for you.

I'll admit I have no clue what you are saying to me.

change the membership of files on your server

MMkhay... files....Can't seem to find any answers in your link either - will ask my host! Just wondering why this is suddently so hard to get working, got joomla 1.5.20 and Kunena 1.5 working on 4 sides, never had a problem....

My host have been looking into it and corrected all current settings, they can't see the problem so they asking me if I know what folder and where Kunena want to place it. Any help on this matter - since all permissions is back to original now!

All files are now in the media folder and not in images folder!

I had this problem and solved it by changing to CHMOD 777 /media/kunena/avatars and all sub folders, gallery, resized and users
