Question File copy failed

Hi

When I try to add a image or file to a post and then submit it I get the following error message

• Failed to upload file 'tippex.jpg': Could not move file into /home/bembridg/public_html/media/kunena/attachments/62/tippex.jpg.

Any help would be appreciated.

Update

I have been able to upload files as a different user but I am not able to upload as Administrator.

This sounds a little strange.

It could be a J! 2.5.7 thing (upgrade to J! 2.5.9). It could be related to the K 1.7 Blue Eagle template that you are using with K 2.0.4 (use the K 2.0 Blue Eagle template instead).

It could be a folder permission issue: see Securing Kunena

It could be a Community Builder issue. Check the Kunena plugins and enable Joomla access instead of CB access.

It could be the custom menu that you are using. See Kunena Menu issues

I'm not sure.

Thank you for your response.

It does appear that it is just the one user that has been affected, I have changed one of my other username to administrator and have been able to upload without any problems.

However I did find a couple of folders with wrong folder permission on another extension.

Could it be a db issue with this one user?

Thanks

In a well-running Joomla website, the recommended folder permissions should be identical on all folders (755) and the files in all folders should have the same permissions, too (644)

Smoothound wrote: Could it be a db issue with this one user?

It is most unlikely to be a database issue. Uploaded files (Kunena attachments) are not stored in the database. They are stored, as individual files, in separate folders for each user.

Have you tried to copy by different users? Sometime due to user permissions, this type of error exists.
