I just went to upload a photo using the non-flash uploader and this is what was returned. This was from the admin account.

Run a file health check and see what the results are.

 

[Joe Link]

library/XenForo/Application.php File does not contain expected contents.

library/XenForo/Application.php File does not contain expected contents.

Try re-uploading the files for that and see if it resolves the issue.

 

[Joe Link]

Thanks. How do I know if an add-on overwrote that file?

 

[Mike]

You need to check the permissions on the internal_data/ directory and all sub-directories/files within. (If in doubt, I would recommend chmodding to 0777.)

While running the file health check is useful, it's unlikely to be related to this at all.

 

[Joe Link]

Thank you @Mike, so it's safe to chmod the entire internal_data directory and all sub directories with 0777?

 

[Paul B]

It's not only safe, it's required.

 

[Joe Link]

Well that settles it then

Hmm, any idea why I might be getting this error via FTP? Do I need to contact my webhost? Looks like a clue.

Command: SITE CHMOD 777 10033-2511586ed890549e4663257c0a3d1571.data
Response: 550 Could not change perms on 10033-2511586ed890549e4663257c0a3d1571.data: Operation not permitted

 

[Paul B]

You may need to check/change (chown) ownership of the files.
Your host should be able to help if you're not sure how to do that.

 

[Joe Link]

That fixed it, thank you.
