Difficulty attaching files in CiviMail after server rebuild
April 27, 2011, 04:04:31 pm
I have a Joomla 1.5.22 site with CiviCRM 3.3.5 that was working perfectly, until... Had a mishap with VPS and some core functionality got hosed. We were able to back up all cpanel accounts, rebuild the VPS and restore the cPanel accounts. Problem is we are now experiencing all kinds of quirky issues like this error when trying to attach files to a CiviMail email:

Quote
Warning: rename(RLCFL_Board_Meeting_Minutes_110403_8bb77546923fc98f8af80c0f6f465160.pdf,/RLCFL_Board_Meeting_Minutes_110403_8bb77546923fc98f8af80c0f6f465160.pdf) [function.rename]: Permission denied in /home/repl10/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/File.php on line 117
Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.
Could not move custom file to custom upload directory

It looks like a permission problem, but I'm not sure what I should be changing permissions on. I saw another post that mentioned Apache configuration. Can anyone point me in the right direction here? I'm in a real bind. Thanks in advance.

Make sure your web-server "user" has read-write perms in media directory and directories below that.
