XF 1.3 URGENT: Avatar permissions problem

[Valter]

Uploaded avatars are not properly chmodded which makes them not appear in forums. It's 0600 instead of 0644. My hosting provider will not change umask settings so is there anything to do on my side to fix this?

Can I add umask() in php somewhere to define avatars permissions on creation?

Why not you change the avatar folder permission by your self using FTP client?

You posted in a thread where I mentioned the config.php option to force a specific chmod. You should set that.

Folder permissions for data and internal_data are correct (0777).
I have a problem with the wrong file permissions.

I've also added $config['chmodWritableValue'] = 0644; to config.php.

But it didn't helped. When user uploads new avatar images are automatically set to 0600.

Sounds like a hosting problem... have you contacted them with your problem?

If you've added that to config.php, then I can only presume that the chmod function has been disabled (which I have seen at least once before, I believe). In which case, only your host can help resolve this.

I've contacted hosting company, they said they can not change php options globally.

Fortunately, forum user Devilwillcry4you sent me a php.ini file which worked for them. I've added that to the forum root folder and problem is gone now.

Thanks Devilwillcry4you!
