When trying to save a thumbnail made with GD
imagejpeg($tnImage, "../../img/thumbs/".$maxWidth."x".$maxHeight."_".$filename);
I am getting the following error:
Warning: imagejpeg() [function.imagejpeg]: Unable to open '../../img/thumbs/80x80_55865-drops.jpg' for writing: No such file or directory in /home/user/workspace/stewart/server-side/libImg.php
/home/user/workspace/img/thumbs has its permissions set to 0x777.
What can be wrong here?
Where are you running the file from? If it's from the server-side directory then I think you're missing a "../"
Try this:
var_dump(realpath("../../img/thumbs/".$maxWidth."x".$maxHeight."_".$filename));
In
/home/user/workspace/stewart/server-side/
the directory
../../img/thumbs/
would equate to
/home/user/workspace/img/thumbs/
so you need
../../../img/thumbs/
Is there a risk setting the permissions to 0x777 ? I had the same problem and so I had to change the permission from 0x755 to 0x777. Isn't this risky? what is the best approach to solve this problem? a separated Temp directory?
