Coppermine Issue

[Sheepathon]

I haven't uploaded anything to my coppermine gallery in a while. Today, I tried to add a picture to one of my galleries, and I got as far as the "select which album to place in" stage, because when I clicked "continue," I get:
"The previous file could not be placed" and at the top of the screen, I get:

Warning: rename(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 1041 is not allowed to access /user/home/domains...

Any ideas?

Are you hosting this yourself or with some paid host? It sounds like the gallery has lost permission to write files to wherever it likes to save them. If you're not the admin, you might want to enquire with whoever is.

It's my domain, and I'm the admin. I never changed any settings whatsoever - it just started doing this yesterday for no apparent reason.

So you own the physical webhosting hardware and you're the only one with root on that machine?

I'd check which user and which group /user/home/domains belongs to and what it's permissions are. Try chmod 775'ing it, but make sure you trust every member of that group before leaving it that way. Also check your php.ini's last modified date, check for any safe mode config items or anything that might be relevant to accessing the disk in that file.

Is this linux? Do you have SELinux enabled? I've found specific things that stop my web scripts from doing stuff from time to time.

Oh no, I'm not the owner of the actual server hardware - I get my hosting through moreweb (jumped on that 1yr for $13 deal a few months back). Actually leaving for Vegas in a few minutes, but I'll tango with it some more when I get back. Cheers.

Well, you might want to talk to the webhost people then, to see if they have changed anything. If you can ssh or telnet in you can probably still poke around to see how some of the permissions and config files are set up. Have fun in Vegas
