Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Problems with Images

I'm still not convinced that it's not a permissions problem.

Go to the files/directories in question an do an ls -al

If you moved the files as root then the file may now be owned by root.  In which case you have to fix the ownership or make the files readable by all, including the user that the server is running under.

Ftp is a guaranteed protocol...if the upload finished sucessfully then the files should have arrived intact.  Unless of course you uploaded your images in text mode....you did set ftp to binary mode didn't you?

One more suggestion....If I'm ever in doubt about the file integrity when transfering files I zip them up and then on the other side I do a test with the zip program (it has some crc functionality).  If the zip file is corrupted on the other side then you've got a problem.
